All the morning the Four Minute Men in the various churches had orated to the congregations, setting forth the aims and purposes of the seven headed monster campaign which would open on Monday morning. All the forementioned Sunday hundreds of people anxiously set forth an afternoon hour so that they might show interest in the toplet first and foremost in the minds of the people throughout the regions of the allied nations, which was none other than the winning of the war for world democracy. The three big institutions of the city that have the Student's Army Training Corps, participated in the celebration and the exercises Sunday afternoon. While it was believed at the time that the armistice was signed and that hostilities and fighting would soon cease, it was evident that Nashville is bound to raise its quota of the big campaign. At three-thirty clock the Mehairy Band struck up the time "America" and more than fifteen thousand loyal Nashville citizens to stand and sing. Rev. Presston Taylor, the chairman of the local committee, under whose leadership the captains and other men are working to raise the sixty thousand of Davidson County's quota, called on Prof. Page, the president of Roger Williams University, to lead in prayer. After prayer, Chairman Taylor announced that Prof. John Work, who is also active in the campaign, would lead the singing for the afternoon. The audience then sang several selections, among which was "Alnt Goin" to Study War No More. Chairman Taylor then stated the plan and purposes of the coming campaign, making a special and patriotic to stand firmly behind the various organizations and appeals he presented to help the boys not only over there but over here, to those present he gave new information relative to the campaign. In closing he introduced Dr. J. F. Lane, secretary for colored work in Tennessee, who in turn introduced Dr. Clements, the executive secretary of the United War Work Campaign for colored work. Dr. Clements spoke for fifteen minutes. He made a special appeal for the united effort on eastern division and should maintain the part of the citizens of Nashville and declared that Nashville rightfully belonged in the lead in the South such a lead. After he had finished Prof. John C. Wright, Y. M. C. A. Clementry who had spent eight months in France, was introduced when his man was mentioned by the chairman of the day, the audience stood once more this time they gave the Chautauqua salute. Prof. Wright received the ovation publicly and proceeded at once to make himself and to imbed himself into the minds of his hearers. In order that those present might not be misled, or mis informed, he gave a brief statement of his work for the past eight or ten years. He had taught four years a Tuskegee and had been at the State School at Tallahassee, Fla. The rest of the afternoon was taken up in glowing discriptions of the accomplishments of the American soldier black and white, who had worked seasely with the Allies in the press conflict. The speaker paid a high tribute to the marksmanship, the heroism, the courage, the courage and the bravery of the Negro soldier. Throughout the afternoon the address was punctured with witty stories of what had transpired from time to time in France. He told first of his work upon his arrival ovea seas, what he saw, what the conditions were and what was really expected of every man. He told of the three zones into which war had naturally separated France. He gave the activities of the men in each zone. Prof. Wright declared that the experts and war critics state it takes three men at the base of supplies to keep one man fighting in the trenches. One of his most beautiful refer- REV. PRESTON TAYLOR, Chairman Local War Work Campaign who preided at the mammoth meeting Sunday afternoon. ences was paid to the stewedove regiments. In closing up his talk on this regiment he read a beautiful poem from Ella Wheeler Wiley, which was a masterpiece, and then he read letters from a member of Gen. Pershing's staff, complimenting the work of the stewedove regiment. He fold on his experiences from the coast and went on to live in trenches, what he had seen of the line war, the British and other Allies, of the noble sacrifices that the French women were making, who in spite of the fact their country was invaded were true NASHVILLE GLOBE. NASHVILLE A CITY OF OPPORTUNITY-THE LEADING NEGRO JOURNAL IN TENNESSEE. and loyal to the French flag. He prevailed upon his audience not to judge the French women by the painted model often referred to as a typical French woman. He declared that the best of France was not all in Paris. It was the rural districts and peasants, the agricultural element that were as true to France as any in the metropolitan centers. His climax was the work of the Young Men's Christian Association and the need for trained help, more money, more supplies, more to do with. He said that war was different to what it used to be, it was now looked upon as a great industry, whose chief product was dead men, and that like other industries it had its by-products, and that one of the greatest by-products of the present war was that of brotherhood, helping men to see and understand each other better. For more than an hour he brought a message that was democratic, that showed the new program, that opened up the vista of the real underlying work of the present war. The vast audience was swayed time after he by his round flow of language his political outlook. At the conclusion of the address, Mrs. Adama Moore, of Columbus, Ohio one of the Y. W. C. A. workers, who was on the platform, made a five minute talk in the interest of the young women and their work. After this Chairman Taylor called the see retary of the local committee, Prof J. D. Crenshaw, who made his appeal for pledges. A large number of people sent up their cards and it was estimated that quite a few thousand dollars were pledged in Sunday afternoon. Seated on the platform were distinguished workers, including Mr. Arch Trawick, whose work carries him in seven states and who is devoting his energies to the present campaign for a better understanding between the two races, and by the Four Minute Men, members of the local committee and the state committee. SIGNS OF THE TIMES—DR. R. H. BOYD PREACHES ANNUAL SERMON AT MEHARRY "The Signs of the Times" was the theme of the sermon delivered in the Meharry Auditorium to the Meharry students by Dr. R. H. Boyd, the secretary of the National Baptist Publishing Board at eleven o'clock last Sunday. A magnificent audience istened to the venerable speaker throughout the discussion. Dr. Geo. W. Hubbard, the president of the institution in making his announcement, said that Dr. Boyd was one of the institution's oldest friends. The number of students, a goodly sprinkling of whom were the khaki uniforms, presented an inspiring picture. It was the first annual sermon of the series arranged by President Hubbard, to be preached at eleven o'clock on the second Sunday in each month. The sermon came a month late this year, due to the fact that all religious services were suspended last month on account of the epidemic, in keeping with the desires of President Hubbard and the members of the faculty Dr. Boyd was invited to deliver the first sermon this year, as a kind of entering greetings. He were the students, a practical straight forward, logical sermon. The male chorus directed by Dr. S. Caruthers, furnished music for theoccasion, while Dr. Alen, editor of the Southern Christian Recorder, offered invocation. Mr. Ira T. Bryant, Secretary of the A. M. E. Sunday School Union returned to the city last week from a trip to Detroit and points north. Prof. H. B. P. Johnson, National Chorister and Circulating Manager of the National Baptist Union-Review the official organ of the Baptist forces, who went to Texas to take part in the war, the state is still in the Lone Star State. It is reported he will return about the first of December. --- The Service Flag of the Mt. Olive Baptist Church and Sunday School was presented last Sunday morning to the church. The presentation speech was made by Mrs. C. J. White, one of the teachers of the school. There are nineteen stars in the flag. "These only represent a part of Mt. Olive's membership," said Dr. C. H. Clark after the presentation speech had been made, "as any number of our members who went north with the exodus taking their families with them have gone over the seas to do fighting, and then some here right in our own town have gone and their families have failed to give us their whereabouts. But we are proud of the fact we have been able to give these loyal members in so noble a cause, he said. Deacon Douglas and Mrs. H. A. Boyd were on the committee that prepared the flag for presentation. It was made by them. MISS CUMMINGS PASSES AWAY Miss Estella Callie Cummings, eldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Cummings of 1712 Patterson Street, passed into the great Beyond Friday, Nov. 1. Miss Cummings who was a young woman of sterling qualities and had been a patient sufferer for several months. She was a member of the First Baptist Church. Funeral services were held from the residence of her parents, conducted by Rev. Howard. The remains were carried to Franklin, Tenn., former home of the family where in the presence of loving relatives and sorrowing friends, all that was mortal of the woman was consigned to its last resting place. She is survived by a father and mother, Mr. and Mrs. Henry Cummings, two brothers, Messrs. Geo. B. and William Cummings, two sisters, Misses Lula B. and Hattie Cummings and a number of other relations. FIGHTING MISS BURROUGHS TRYING TO OUST A WOMAN WHO HAS BUILT A GREAT INSTITU- TION—MORE ENVY SHOWN To the Nashville Globe Jersy City, N. J.—A reader of your paper, knowing it to be a secular paper with no particular interest in any of these religious controversies, yet I believe you are willing to give your readers a true statement of facts, as a number of your readers are interested in what is going on, as I traveled through the states. I am exceedingly and greatly surprised to find that those who attended the last meeting of the National Baptist Convention held September 4-9, in St. Louis, Mo., complained of a renewed attack upon Miss Nannie H. Burroughs and her work of the National Trust. The trust and howoveretter the marvel, the attack comes backed up by the women. Those in the main body of the Convention heard nothing of the plan, and attempted attack, but a side meeting was called among the officers of the women's branch and those of the men's, especially those excited by Texas hounds. The corresponding secretary, (Miss Burrough) attending the Board meeting, called, but was told that her presence was not preferable. Thinking the meeting had something to do with the amount of over $5000 in arrears of her salary, she, the secretary, quietly withdrew, never dreaming of the portent of the meeting. There behind closed doors the women of the trust organization, body, those ardent suffragettes granted the officers of the men's division that they were "under the men" and that therefore the report of the corresponding secretary should be submitted to M. M. Rodgers to be audited. The women of other races are allowed to go on with their work, and she was allowed to go on until she, with support of friends, built up a great institution. Now, we are "under the men." Were we "under the men" when they sent a committee to us at the Cincinnati Convention in 1901 to ask us to operate as a Board instead of a Convention? Were we "under the men" when they stood out against the organization of the Training School? In these days when woman is being granted her "in allenable rights" it smacks of ignorance or toadlyism to hear our women in the National Convention, especially those who are speaking for "the women's rights," saying "We are under the men." She has never objected to owing her report audited by an honest, intelligent auditor; but when it is considered their auditor, (M. M. Rodgers) has made thirteen errors of which he promised to publish corrections and which he has never done, it is easy to understand why she, (Miss Burroughs), will not give over her books to the auditor in question. She has offered to pay the expense of an auditing committee and was willing to have the convention appoint a public accountant (a diswould go over her accounts. This is interested party) on both sides who square enough to any unprejudiced mind. But, it seems that the plan is not satisfactory to either department of the National Convention. They backed up the demand and said, "her submit her report." M. M. Rodgers, "and by statement even more postoperative and suggestive of her motives. After the main body of the convention on Thursday reelected all the officers on Monday the officers voted stated, she did not submit her report to the auditor selected." Her nomination would remain open. It is impossible to consider the two statements without becoming cognizant of the strategem which some few ambitious officers are seeking to work out in order to obtain a position which in all probability they would not know what to do with. Perhaps they consider themselves entitled to it because of their skill in splitting conventions. But those who have skill as splitters do not always have skill in organizing and building. No one has ever heard of these two traits of character being dominant in the same mind. Those who sow dissension are not those who block before they will place a stenwork; they are those who sit in idleness and try to place a stumbling ping stone; and will call "cruelty" before they will say "God speed." Our correspondent secretary, Miss Burroughs, has labored conscientiously for the good of the convention and for the N. T. S., despite the rears in salary and many other hard knocks. She has accomplished the herculean task of keeping straight the business of the National Convention with skill, accuracy and fidelity and undertaken and been partner in every department of the school's activity, the mental task about the grounds to the conducting of her classes; and has effected both with constan thoroughness and good cheer. She is truly one of God's chosen women to them that are at ease in Zion. "Son, go work today in my vineyard." The busiest are the happiest, the most cheerful and pure and feel that they are accomplishing something. "Son, go work in my vineyard." We must understand that work for his is definite service. What makes this or that definite service. The Motive. Therefore, our corresponding secretary is doing definite service; for here is not service for mercenary motives, as salary long over due denotes, nor for an easy job; as those who have visited Lincoln Heights and seen something of the truning of the wheel at N. T. S. can witness. She can truly say "This is one thing I am doing to build up the kingdom; Moses keeping sheep; Gideon thrashing wheat; David attending his flock and writing poetry; Jesus bursed in the carpenter shop; Peter and John are bonding people who are living with energy the ones to whom God confers his work. The women's Convention has been a dignified, progressive body of women. Their annual meeting should not be allowed to deteriorate to mere squabbles over the biggest bone. Be it known that New Jersey stands for (Continued on page 5.) MRS. M. T. MITCHELL, Chicago, Ill. ACTIVE MISSIONARY WORKER Among the women who are active in the constructive work that is being done by the National Convention of Women is Mrs. M. T. Mitchell, of Chicago, Ill. Mrs. Mitchell is a member of the Executive Board of the National Baptist Convention of Women, and Chairman of the Courtesy Committee. She is an active worker in the Ebenebee Baptist Church, pastored by Rev. John F. Thomas, D. D. She is expected to visit Nashville in the last few months in the interest of Educational work COLUMBIA 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 boys in the trenches. While this county does not lead in giving men to the army and navy, it is represented in practically every branch of the service, boasting of perhaps what few counties in the state can afford. From the various sections of the country 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. One of the pleasing developments during the past several weeks has been the increased interest shown by the citizens in the movement to put Columbia in its proper place before the world by advocating everything that means for the betterment of the city. Special attention is being given to the surrounding community and the rural districts, and the workers who come from these remote sections of the county look upon Columbia's leader ship is coming upon the seas their headquarters. Gradually a new which is proving not antagonistic to the lights, but have rather been co-operative. Civic, political, business, fraternal and religious movements are also keeping pace with the general trend of activity.

BRITAIN DEBATES HOUSING PROBLEMS Great Need for New Dwellings Revealed by the War Results in Plans for Civic Betterment. Great Britain is attempting to solve its various housing problems, which will be serious after the war. According to a report by Counsel J. S. Armstrong Jr., Bristol, England, has more than 5,00 occupied houses unit for habitation, 588 occupied houses that have been condemned, and 2,000 occupied houses that should be condemned. The health officer estimates that 7,250 houses will be needed within the next five years. "The there is now attendance on the part of the Government to favor the local authorities for working people by the local authorities or by publicity companies, instead of by private enterprise, as heretofore" says Mr. Armstrong. "The city of Bristol is carrying out this policy by arranging to purchase 700 acres of land at a cost of about $725,000, which is to be laid out as village suburbs. Further important purchases probably will be made for this purpose at a later date. "In the connection the city council has approved a recommendation that application be made to the British local government board for sanction to erect 500 houses at the end of the war. It is proposed to develop five village suburbs at suitable points on the outskirts of the city. Each house is to have adjoining sufficient land for a garden, and the houses are to be preserved more than 12 acres of land. Four or five 9 acres are to building it is purposeed to devote 1 acre to open space, which will contain tennis courts, bowling greens, and provision for other outdoor pastimes. The houses are to be semidetached or built in small blocks and set back from the street. In many cases the houses are to be planned in quadrangles, with a view to avoiding monotony of appearance. The smallest dwelling is to contain a fairly good sitting room, with a large bedroom, but the larger ones will have three or more bedrooms, and many of them a parlor. NUMBER With the work in behalf of the First United War Work Campaign In full swing throughout Tennessee, the heads of the Colored Department are confident of success in the big drive for $150,000.00. This week has been one full to overflowing with campaign activities among colored people in all parts of the state. Mass meetings, parades, conferences and public speakings have characterized the work from one end of the state to the other. In this movement, the younger people of the race have not been overlooked. The colleges, institutes and seminaries as well as the high schools and grammar schools have been pulled into the movement. The young people in these schools are being taught that they have a part in the big national program. In many places, they have carried out a characteristic of school life, into the work of the campaign with telling effect, in the schools of the state that will make good showing are: Knoxville College, Morristown College, Lane College, Fisk University, Roger Williams University, Meharry Medical College, LeMoyne Institute, Howe Institute, Swift Memorial College and Turner Normal The leading High Schools and Grammar schools of the state are lining up on the Earn and Give Division in good form. Locally, Dr. J. P. Crawford, Proj. Geo. E. Washington and the Principals of the several schools are manifesting much interest in the work. Rev. Russell S. Brown of Memphis, Miss Smith and Mrs. W. J. Hale of the State A. and I. School of this city are rendering significant service in laying the interest of the campaign upon the minds and hearts of the young people of the state. They have carefully covered the state, and have spoken to hundreds of our young people in all parts. Dr. E. Washington J. F. Lane, the State Association Executive Secretary sent out the following S. O. S. call as his last word to the people of the state. The following is the message: To the Colored People of Tennessee: The First United War Campaign is now in full swing. Our boys over there and in camps over here must be cared for as long as they are in the service. Although peace is in sight, every dollar of the money asked for is needed to provide for the moral and spiritual welfare of the men. Too much is involved for us to fail. The eyes of the world are now upon us, and as a great patriotic American citizen, we must succeed. This is the test of the Negro americanism and his love for his brother soldier and sailor boys. While the enthusiasm is running high, let us push the campaign to a successful conclusion. Delay is dangerous. Act at once. In speaking to a Globe reporter, he said: "Now that the war is practically over, the necessity of our raising all the money allotted becomes more urgent. The military restraint thrown about the boys will not be as great as when the boys were constantly expecting to go to the front. Therefore, these great moral agencies must be strengthened to the extent that we must bring our boys back in fine form. The Negro soldiers "over there" have done well their part, and we at home must do our part, in helping to make the country at large safe for Democracy. The present campaign will put to test Negro liberality and the Negro's love for his soldier and sailor boys. If we fail every Negro in Tennessee is disgraced. The eyes of the government are upon us. We cannot, we must not fail. Next Monday the campaign closes, and it is earnestly hoped that the lodges, churches and schools will put the big "drive" over the top. Already several counties have reported having raised their full quota. PRIVATE L. B. McCRAY IN FRANCE "Just before the battle mother, I am thinking most of you," wrote Private George Langaton Bruce McCrary, somewhere in France, to his mother at Metropolis, Ill.

HAWKINS, Cashier LIABILITIES NEW FIELDS FOR WOMEN. New York, Nov. 12—As the result of revolutionary economic changes in the United States, superintroduced by the war, the colored girl is entering in the industrial field in large numbers. Realizing that this new situation is fraught with accompanying responsibilities and dangers, the War Work Council of the Youn Women's Christian Association is making a effort to throw colored workers away, same sasfeggards as white workers. The member of Miss Eva D. Bowles' staff enlisted with the important task of heading up the work for colored workers in industry throughout the country in Miss Mary E. Jackson, a native of Providence R. I., who is officially known as special industrial worker among colored girls and women under the War Work Council of the Y. W. C. A. Miss Jackson has associated with her a corps of competent workers who are stationed in large industrial communities where colored women are employed. Each week new Y. W. C. A. workers are being sent to towns and cities where race women are taking advantage of newer industrial opportunities and where it is often necessary for the mill or factory owner to be shown the necessity of giving the co-worker fair wages and hours, sanitary working conditions and preliminary training. The industrial worker seeks to show the employee that by looking after the welfare of the employee he raises the morale of his working force and improves the efficiency of his plant; that with such favorable conditions existing the employer is certain of increased profits. It is the mission of the industrial worker to bring the colored male employee under the direct influence of the Young Women's Christian Association. Clubs are formed which afford working girls wholesome recreation, spiritual guidance and training. Knitting, aswing, cooking, glee and religious clubs are organized. Practical talks, social morality lectures, practical English, oral expression, conversation and letter writing are required in the intellectual program" carried out in a number of centers. The program however varies as other features are lateruced when desired by members of the different industrial clubs Folk dancing, floor work, military drill, baske ball and community singing also are taught. It is incumbent on the industrial worker to secure employment for girls and women, which is gone about in a most thorough manner. When openings are sought special emphasis is laid on spiritual development, physical needs, adaptability, preparation, desirability, chances for promotion, wages and their relation to girls' responsibilities and educational value. In cases where girls have been placed by the industrial worker beauty made into the nature of the industry the job of work desired, whether day or night shifts and if rest room facilities are provided. Surveys into industrial conditions so far as affecting colored women and girls have been made in the province, St. Louis, Pittsburgh and detroit. In New York an intensive survey is being made by two investigators which is financed by the War Work Council of the Y. W. C. A. Here are a few interesting facts and figures given out by Miss Jackson which give some idea as to the big part the colored female worker is playing in the industrial field: Two workers have been sent to Lynchburg, Va, and are spending their time among the girls in tobacco factories, at Winston-Salem, N. C., at least five hundred race girls are working in fifty-eight large tobacco factories where workers are prepared to enter the field; at Nashville, Tenn., 1,500 girls are employed in ammunition plants and a worker was placed among them the first of the month; at Detroit at least two thousand girls are employed in ten factories. A worker is on the scene and expects to open the recreation center soon; about the hundred girls are employed to a uniform factory at Charleston, S. C., and two workers are the first Hopewell, Va, and Pennmouth recreation workers; recreation work is being acceptably performed in Columbia, S. C., where colored girls are employed in a knitting mill; a new building for the large number of colored women doing industrial work in Washington, D. C., is to be our funnimum jepoum su papanpuco reation. At St. Louis work for industrial girls has been very thoroughly developed along organization and place ment and the industrial worker has been appointed a member of the advisory board for the Federal Employment Office in St. Louis. At Louisville, where about two thousand colored girls are employed in factories the Y. W. C. A. has secured a large house for a social center. HOLD YOUR LIBERTY BONDS. --- The money invested in Liberty Bonds if kept so invested until peace is established will be worth much more then than now. Every provident man and woman in the United States who holds his or her Liberty Bonds may find the money so invested worth twice as much in purchasing power after the war as now. How sure and safe an investment it is and how profitable an investment to keep your money invested in Liberty Bonds until its purchasing power becomes greater than at present. It is a better investment than wheat stock. It is a better use and a wiser use of your money than speculators with it. --- Miss Polly Sellers of Cleveland, Ohio is in the city visiting Miss Pearl Watkins. Miss Sellers and Miss Watkins will leave for Columbia in a few days to visit their relation and friends. CONCERNING PEACE. By Theodosia Garrison of The Vigilante. That we have purchased with tremendous price.— That we will take. We have no mind to make a bargain twice. No larger gain to make. But this we buy across the sword's red blade We swear shall justify the price we paid. Not with small counters we seek this thing. But with the blood. Of youth, men's might and human suffering. And stricken womanhood,— These to the market of none swear we peace with manhood,— These to the market of your wrath we brought. And we shall have in full the Peace we bought. Tricksters and swindlers in the wide world's mart, Not yours to say, Nor, cringing, still withhold one little part. Think you we shall be cheated at the last? A NEW BIRTH OF FREEROM. By Ellas Lieberman of The Vilgilantes The Great Emancipator, before the veans of Gettysburg, put into words the soul of America. Although he adduced a limited group assembled for a specific purpose, he expressed the spirit of progress, not only for his day but for all ages. There must be no compromise in dealing with evil. There must be no weakening in on attitude toward Germany eaten but unregenerate. We must not rest satisfied until the Augean stables of arrogance and cruelty have been thoroughly cleansed. It will seem like a travesty on our American idealism if the result of all the blood we shed so willingly, of all the agony we endured so nobly, of all the mother-love we sacrificed so freely—is merely a patched-up peace, a yellow truce. Not for this did America throw in all of her resources of mind, heart and capital. "That these dead shall not have died in vain" said Lincoln. Let us, facing our great problem, test the peace offered to us in the alembic of his principles. Then we cannot go wrong. AFTER THE WAR SHOULD WE TREAT THEM DID BEFORE THE WAR By Ellis Parker Butler of The Vigilantes. We are at war with Germany and in due time one or the other of us will be licked. In my opinion it will be Germany that will be licked AND We Americans are good sports and too apt to feel generously toward those we have licked AND Of course, it is all right for me to shake hands with a man I have licked in a fair fight NASHVILLE GLOBE. FRIDAY NOVEMBER 15. 1918. That is no reason why I should shake hands with a burglar that I have prevented from robbing my home OR Embrace a degenerate because I have knocked him down and prevented him from doing rape Kiss a blood-dripping murderer because I have warded off the knife he had raised to murder me and my family. SO I say—and I hope you feel the same way about it—that although we may have had some respect for Germany before the war, we know that pirate-murderer nation for what it is AND After the war Germany must be treated as an outlawed criminal unit for the company of decent nations to be ostracized and boycotted.

Thrice welcome scarred men of the Legion. Who honor our country to-day! America reveres the uniform Of the Legion d'Honneur fragrer! SILLY WOMEN Although the women of this country have no such suspicious task as confronted the women of both the North and the South during the Civil War when there was no Red Cross, and the Government was at its wits' end to care for the wounded and the poor so say nothing of a few other problems that in these highly organized days are being directed by specialized men and women in authority, still for the most part they have risen eagerly to all the demands made upon them. Almost immediately upon the outbreak of the war in 1914 the more earnest and respondent men o the country began to kilt and wear special dressings form societies for the eligible the allied in Europe, and by degrassing into service women of less initiative and who had done little or no work before. After our entrance in 1917 it may safely be said that the best of our women arose as a unit and demanded opportunities for service. Their record to date is a fine one and the country is justly proud of them. If they are not able to rise to the heights of the European women o of the American when during the Civil War it is because no such burden has been placed upon them. They have sufficiently proved, however, that, given the same conditions, they would prove as equal to the demand. Therefore, is another class of women all the more contemptible by contrast. Even before the war it was patent to any student of the country that our women might be roughly divided into two classes, those that thought and those that did not, those that cultivated their brains and those that remained, either from disabilities imposed by nature, or from choice, the silliest, most thoughtless, and most fish in the world. Rich or poor, their standard was self-indulgence, they lived for what they could "get out" of life and they cultivated a slickly sentimental. The primary fault lies in our system of education. A sound, thorough, severe education will drill some sense into the most brailless and imbue them with a sense of responsibility. But a vast number of our women do not go to college, do not even finish school, do not make the most even of their slender opportunities. Only those of good natural parts, to move and old phrase, rise above their conditions, educate themselves when they are old enough to realize what they have missed, and learn the great lessons of life. It is from this inferior brand of American women that this country is suffering in a peculiar and sinister way at the present moment. They are the cause of a great additional expense to the Government, and of secure punishment and mortification to many headless young men. I am not at liberty to give figures, but a great number of soldiers during the past year have overstayed leave, missed their transport, been reduced in rank, kept in the guard house (with pay held up) until there are two hundred and fifty of them, when they are shipped off to France and give the military authorities endless trouble before their regiments can be located. The blame is laid chiefly on the class of women with which this country is cursed. If the women who tempted the young men were outcasts there would be no comment to make, for the soldiers, knowing them for what they are, would alone be to blame. But it is the wives and sweethearts and sisters, in a few cases the mothers women whom the soldiers heartily respect, who weep when the hour to return to duty approaches, who beg them to take the risk for the sake of a few more hours, wall that they may never see them again, protest that a day more or less cannot matter, hang on their necks, possibly faint in the good old style. Nor is it only the women who play upon the heart strings that indulge in this criminal foolishness. An officer told me that he was sitting in the train not long since, and overheard a conversation between a plain unattractive middleaged woman and a soldier returning to camp. They had just struck up an acquaintance and when the woman learned that the young man was returning to camp on Saturday instead of Sunday night she began to console with him. "What a shame not to give the poor boy another day. Now, I do think that is mean! They ought to give you boys who are going over to save democracy and probably to be killed, all the fun you can get over here." She soon had the boy so sorry for himself that the officer was forced to interfere, and tell the woman what he thought of her. The woman was astonished that her "natural sympathy" should be construed as treason. Of course she was a plain fool and no doubt is still nursing a grievance. It is quite true that we are not a military nation, that for two generations we have been unaccustomed to any but the laxest of discipline. No wonder these boys for the most part uneducated, are easily trained, woken up naturally to foolish and selfish, should be the unconscious tools of Germany. If there were a few more of them we should not have two million men in France today. As it is they not only have affected the morale and bright hopes of more of our soldiers than we like to consider but they have forced the Government to appoint a board known as the Military Moral, which sits constantly on these cases, and has been the incidental service necessary, runs up into a cost of many thousand dollars a month, paid for by the long-suffering public. Although, as the war goes on, more and more women who have led useless lives are absorbing common sense and patriotism, doing any work that comes their way, and improving daily in consequence, still is there this hopeless residuum imperilling the success of our arms. It is quite useless to appeal to them personally, for their conceive is on a par with their stillness, and they are quite sure that whatever they do—and want—is right; but at least we can appeal to loyal women to watch and report all women of their assistance whom they suspect of the particular form of trust. And there is no reason why their husband—whether mother, wife, sweetheart, or sister—should not be as executive as any inflicted upon the boys who at least are prepared to do their duty when they are actually at the front. These women have no intention of being of the slightest service to their country, or of regarding the war in any light but that of a personal advance. SOMEWHERE IN AMERICA. This column tells how America's workmen are doing their part to preserve liberty for their countrymen and precent German domination. COAL MINERS MAKE FINE RECORD. Need of War Time Production Spurs Amen to Splendid Eforts in Mining Regions of America. Every increase in the efficiency of the war industries demands a corre- sponding increase in the demand for hel. Thus the burden placed on approximately 700,000 mine workers of the United States each day grows teavier. This in view of the deple- lation in their ranks by the draft, makes their part in helping make the world safe for democracy most exacting. It places them under a strain demanding cooperating effort at the supreme height of their power and endurance. In the last six months production has been greatly increased. Miners are doing everything possible help the nation, and thousands for men who had retired have gone back into the mines. The task that the online workers are bravely facing and faithfully carrying on is to produce for the coal year 735, 000,000 tons of coal. Since the early spring estimates for the Navy there has been a steady rise in consumption of coal by war vessels, and with the launching of new ships the Shipping Board's requirements have risen greatly. realizing their responsibilities the mine workers have entered into friendly competition in breaking previous records. Many worked on Labor Day of their own accord, particularly in the southern fields, and since the influenza epidemic many are voluntarily working Sundays during the remaining good weather to make up lost time. As for the rest, the great body of mine workers, by their toll eight hours a day all the six days of the week they are coping with what was previously supposed to be impossible in production. Knowing that in truth "the work of the world waits on them" they have seen to it that no wheel in the war machinery shall be idle. HOW MEN PAST 60 CAN HELP. --- Var Needs Mean That Any Man Physically Fit can Find His Place in Industry or Agriculture. Men past 60 years of age, if they are physically fit, can render great assistance to the Government's war program by taking their places in industry, according to officials of the Department of Labor, who have found that such men are capable of doing almost as effective work as those 20 years younger. "Age has nothing to do with obligation to the Nation," reads a poster prepared by the Information and Education Service of the Department. That the older man realize this has been shown by the eagerness with which they have volunteered to enter industry, in many cases at considerable personal sacrifice. A conspicuous example of what older men can do has appeared in the real mines, where when it became known that greater production was needed dthan the depleted force of miners could provide, a large number of men who had made enough money to retire went back to work and gave very, valuable service. The wah has pretty well proved that the prejudice against hiring old men (so common in the past in many business houses, was badly founded. Factory training schools have had very good success in teaching mechanical processes to men past 60 years of age. Farm labor can always use them, at times when additional forces are needed, such as at seedtime and harvest. The gathering of America's wheat crop this year was made possible to a considerable extent by the enliftment of older men in the wheat-growing communities. A Vermont man, 87 years old, who has been doing his part by garden farming, writes as follows to his home town newspaper: "I appeal to all the boys over 87 to work a little garden. It will drive away the blues, keep you from rusting out; you will eat and sleep better; be healthier; and it will keep you out of bad company and possibly out of jail, besides helping Uncle Sam to bring this cruel war to a close." Twelve Hundred Brown American Citizens Manning the Home Lines at New Orleans. Though denied the right to serve their country in France because of their age, 1,200 Porto Ricans nevertheless have demonstrated recently that they are willing and eager to prove themselves worthy of American citizenship. They landed the other day at New Orleans to do their bit, in the home treaches, toward winning the war and preserving the institutions unde whose protection they live. Under 18 or over 35, all of them, and undersized, too, from the Anglo-Saxon viewpoint, they yet have braved a tough touring their beloved home to plunge at once in the work at a time when every American is called on to show the stuff he is made of. No shocker here, and no wasted time. They spent their first night in a covered wharf at New Orleans and the next day they were installed in their 600 rooms in the one-time restricted district and had begun their labors at the Army depot, which they will help to finish by Christians. Incidentally, there Porto Riens already have a better appreciation of the meaning to the workingman of the democracy which they are helping to save. They receive standard wages, we well housed and fed and have ever before them the prospect of early promotion. They are a big addition to the home forces, these brown brothers of ours. Y. M. C. A STIMULATES NEGROEST MORALE Government Provides $15,000 Building for Colored Workers at Nitro, W. Va.) Powder Plant. In order to increase the efficiency and morale of the Army as home, the workers who must sustain the Army at the front, the Government has built, at a cost of $15,000 a modern and well-equipped Y. M. C. A. building for the Negro workmen at the powerplant at Nitro W. Va. This building is provided with billiard tables, bowling alley, shower baths, a soda furnish a library of 1,000 volumes, and 30 current periodicals a moving picture, and auditor A grammarism not swimming pool will be installed. Supervision of the building and the T. M. C. A. work is under the direction of Negro secretaries, most of whom are college men, two of them having studied at Chicago University. An increase in morale and efficiency has already been noticed, according to information which has reached the Director of Negro Economies, Department of Labor. When asked for an opinion about the Negro workers an official at Nitro said that the Negroes are the most appreciative worker in the plant. The man is a white Teenie says, "can not be criticized. This anataxiaum sumu sumu me ussoum with Negro labor. The Negro laborers, Government has provided very liberally for the colored men at this place, and we believe that the colored men have responded and will continue to respond to the treatment they receive MANY OPPORTUNITIES FOR DIS ABLED MEN. Red Cross Instituto Finda 1,203 Kinds of Jobs Owen to Legi Carpenter Recent surveys by the Red Cross Institute for Crippled and Disabled Men have brought out that the field open for reestablishment of such men in industrial life is much wider than probably is generally supposed. Investigations of 542 factories since January 1 last have revealed 1,202 kinds of jobs open to leg cripples and 278 open to arm cripples. Careful attention was given sanitary conditions and precautions for safety. The report describes in detail the processes involved in each industry investigated; the advantages and disadvantages of each for arm and leg cripples, respectively; the wages paid; the organization of the trade, and the general provisions for the safety of workers. The following industries are included: The piano industry, the earl industry, the rubber industry, the mape-gooods industry, the shoe industry, sheet-metal goods, the silk industry, cigar manufacture, drugs and chemicals, the candy industry, the celluloid industry, optical goods, and the motion-picture industry. CONCRETE WORKERS MAKE RECORDS. New Marks Are Set Weekly in Construction of Great Army Supply Base, at South Boston. Records are being broken weekly at the Quartermaster Terminal in South Boston, Mass., according to information which has reached the Department of Labor. It is hoped that the concrete workers on this great Army supply base will have poured all the cement necessary for the main building two months before the time set for the completion of the job. Workmen on one section of the work recently poured 2,978 bags of cement in one day, a record which meant not only pouring out the cement, but holding it from the ground to the seventh story of the big warehouse. The record, remarkable though it was, stood only for a few days, for on the following Monday morning the men at work on section E. produced records showing that they had poured 3,082 bags in one day. This was the cut for section D to get busy again, and so effectively did they respond to the stimulus that they succeeded in pouring 3,506 bags in a day's run. MEN: WHY NOT?

FIVE PLANTS GET HONOR FLAGS Denver Factories Make Records in Production that are Recognized by Shipping Board. The United States Shipping Board's honor flag is flying from 5 Denver machine-manufacturing plants and has been awarded for meritorious production. These companies include the Vuton Iron Works, the Flint Electric & Manufacturing Co., the Plains Iron Works, the Dillon-Box Iron Works, and the Shaw Pneumatic Tool Co. All are associated as the General Ordnance Co. They manufacture marine engines and other machinery for the ships of the United States. HAS "MANLESS RANCH" IN MONTANA. Widow, Unable to Find Supply of Masculine Labor for 600-acre Tract, Gives Jobs to Women. Mrs. Maggie V. Smith Hathaway, of Helena, Mont., has proved that it is possible to run a 600-acre ranch without the aid of men's labor. She knows because she has successfully conducted her "manless ranch" for six years, raising grain, cattle and sheep. Mrs. Hathaway began life as a school-teacher. In a few years she became country superintendent. Later she married Mr. Hathaway, assistant State superintendent of schools, who owned a 320-acre ranch adjoining her own. After the death of her husband, Hathaway farmed the two ranches. It was difficult to get masculine help, so she introduced modern machinery that could be operated by women, and announced to the country-side that hereafter her place was to be called the "Manless Ranch."

Kristine Mann, of Ordnance Bureau, Devices Methods of Keeping up Morale of War Workers. "Enlist the women for the period of the war," the favorite slogan of Dr. Kristine Mann, director of the civilian worker's branch. Ordnance Department, United States Army, or in other words, "health commander in chief" of the 8,000 win-the-war women now employed in the Ordnance Department at Washington. "Only in this way," remarked Dr. Mann in a recent interview, "wil the women of America derive anything like the same benefits in the way of physical education and development, technical training, and recreational activities for their war service that our boys have gained from the thirs." In all problems touching the health, comfort of women Dr. Mann is vitally interested. Since assuming the duties of her office, on August 24 last, a comprehensive schedule of action has been built up, the aim in view being the development of the potential working force of the women through the intensive development of the women themselves. Under this plan, classes in physical training have been organized, and two physical educators appointed. Lectures on the care of the body have been given, clubs for women organized emergency rooms in each building opened, with trained nurses on duty in each, and in addition to the large cateraer already in operation there, many cases have been placed in Ordnance Under the Government Recreational Board, military drills have been started, for entrance to which candidates are required to undergo a rigid physical examination About 200 girls have already qualified for these classes. Recreational activities include riding classes, swimming, dancing, roller skating, and dance parties. A petition has been presented asking for permission to establish an athletic association and an alliance of $20,000 for the erection of a temporary gymnasium hall has recently been obtained from the Government. A mutual aid associatio also has been formed for a relief of temporary financial embarrassment on the part of the members, and already $1,600 has been loaned in sums ranging from 5 to $75. Under the housing committee over 1,000 women have been comfortably housed, and a chain of residence clubs is in process of establishment, which will further add to the comfort of the unit. All these various activities, however, are necessary on a volunteer basis; and it is the theory of Dr. Mann that very much more effective work can be obtained by putting the girls under the same military discipline that regulates the lives of their soldier brothers. This should be supposed to be the impulsory warning of a self-educated uniform by all women war workers. In furtherance of this idea the uniform committee invited into conference a representative of each division of ordinance and of the offices of the Quartermaster, the Surgeon General, the Signal Corps, Military Aeronauties, Aircraft Production, the War College, and the Engineer Corps. A selection of the proposed uniform was sent to the civilian personnel, and it is likely this will soon receive the sanction of the office of the Secretary of War. With this "outward and visible sign" of the dignity of their service to their country, and with the realization instilled into them that good food, satisfactory housing conditions, and unimpaired health will double their capacity to reading munitions to the boys in France. Dr. Mann is of the opinion that the women of the country will fall into their war srieve in as short order as the zeen have already done. ENGLISH WOMEN'S GREAT WORK WORK IN WAR. Miss Caroline Spurgeon Tell How They Aid in Factory, in Home, and on the Battlefield. Miss Caroline Spurgeon, professor of English Literature at the University of London and head of the department of English Literature at Bedford College, stated during her visit to Washington as a member of the British Educational Mission that university women of England are offering women's military organizations of Great Britain, the "Waees" (the Woman's Army Auxiliary Corps), the "Wrens" (the Woman's Royal Naval Corps) and the "Penguins," or the Women's Flying Corps. "The last namel," said Miss Spurgeon, "is probably to be a permanent organization. So far women have done very little flying, but they are learning all the details about airplanes and automobiles. They are qualifying as craftsmen and in the construction demands. Women in London are driving trucks. Probably because they are out in the open air so much of the thetime their health appears not to have suffered, but often to have been improved by the work. University health inspectors, also as engineering experts, chemists, physicists, health inspectors and employed managers." At Bedford College a course of one year is given women to prepare them as welfare workers." Delative to the entrance of women into industry, Miss Spurgeen cited an interesting incident. "At the beginning of the war a woman interested in repleasing men by women," she said, "entered the Otis elevator plant in London and asked to see the factory. She was not permitted to leave the elevator to inspect the machinery, for the manager was sure the men would suspect what she was doing and there would be trouble. To-day women are practically running that plant. I thus been discovered that when women have the machine sense they usually have it more highly developed than men. They are quicker and more thorough. Some women of course never have it. "Our employment exchanges, which correspond to the officers of the United States Employment Service, have found the shorter shifts among women produce much more efficient service. Professional sections have been added to the exchanges within the last two years. The war ha brought English women of education into touch with many new forms of work, and university women for the first time have recognized the value of Government labor exchanges." It is a duty to your country and to yourselves and to your children to hold your Liberty Bonds. HOLD YOUR LIBERTY BONDS. Every purchaser of a Liberty Bond, or at least every purchaser of a Liberty Bond who holds his or her bond, when reading of the great work that big american naval guns are doing in France can reflect that they helped to provide these guns and put them into action and are keeping them at work. Thos. G. Kittrell, Secretary Nashville Chapter American Red Cross, announces that the regular annual membership meeting will take place on Wednesday, November 20, at which meeting the yearly election of officers will be held. The hour and place for this meeting will be Wednesday afternoon at 4 o'clock at the Assembly Room of the Commercial Building. COLLEGE GIRLS MAKING MUNITIONS. Miss Grace Wilson Found War Work Not Only Interesting But Practical Waly to Serve Country. That the making of munitions forms an attractive vocation to a college-bred girl trained only to work with her head is the opinion of Grace Wilson, a teacher of Oberlin College and a teacher at Solan High School, St. Louis. Miss Wilson put in part of her summer vacation working in the American multigraph factory of Cleveland, which is giving at least half-of its capacity to Government contracts. In speaking of the work Miss Wilson said: "I was one of the 400 women in one shift working on the inspection of fuses—the French type denotating fuses. Some of the women were on machines really making parts, which was more interesting, but required considerable power of physical endurance. There were two shirts in my part of the factory. We worked from 2 p. h. to 11:30, with half an hour for luncheon. I found it interesting coming in contact with people. I loved them and got to know them pretty well. "But the work itself fascinated me, partly, perhaps, because I've done so few things in my life with my hands, it was so good to think that every complete and perfect little brass piece was to play its part against the Hunt. We were paid 26 cents an hour as beginners, and advances were rapid. I was even asked to be a forebear. I think many of women present at the Hunt were having long tails to prefer to remain at my own table at 26 cents an hour." MIDS GIRLS WORKERS IN WASHINGTON. Ordnance Club Houses Some Federal Employees and Provides Recreation for Many More. Civil war workers in Washington are gradually finding relief from the unproviding living conditions before confronting them. An especially helpful measure has been the recent taking The establishment of the "Ordnance Club" at 1711 I Street NW. is an interesting case in point. Commodiously built, the house is to be used as a combination home and clubhouse for the woman 'personnel of the civilian branch of the Army Ordnance Department. The extensive ground - floor suite has been fitted up as reading and recreation rooms, while the two upper stories, of five rooms each, will furnish uncrowded sleeping quarters for a fortune 15 of the unit. Open fireplaces, old-fashioned mahogany furniture, and well-fitted book shelves contribute to the atmosphere of general comfort and refinement which distinguishes the whole place. Winter recreational plans for the members in include occasional dances, musicales plays, and other features entertainments. the membership fee is $2, with an additional monthly due of 50 cents. Kids who occupy the sleeping rooms pay, of course, a moderate rental for their quarters. As soon as arrangements can be considered a sale is to be made where nurturing foods, in such their quantity, will be served the members. It is a duty to your country and to your children to hold your children to hold your Liberty Bonds. Every purchaser of a Liberty Bond, or at least every purchaser of a Liberty Bond who holds his or her bond, when reading of the great work that big american naval guns are doing in France can reflect that they helped to provide these guns and put them into action and are keeping them at work. These guns were put through the severest test and showed much farther ranges and more accurate fire than had ever before been possible with projectiles of such large size. They do not shoot so far as asthe long-range gun with which the Germans bombarded Paris, but they shoot vastly large projectiles and they shoot with accuracy. They are used not against defenseless cities but against German defenses and attacking German troops. Keep your money invested in these cannon. Continue to help win the war by holding your Liberty Bonds. SECRETARY McADOO'S THANKS --- "The great success of the Fourth Loan is new and convincing evidence of the determined spirit of America to carry on the war until freedom is assured throughout the world. But even with the highest purpose and patriotism onthe part of the peoplethis great result could not have been achieved without intelligent direction and organization. I wish to thank the Liberty Loan committees, both men and women, the bankers and business men, farmers, wage earners, railroad officers and employees, and every group of citizens who have so ably and enthusiastically cooperated with the Treasury in conducting the campaign. To the press of the country especial credit is due for emphasizing through their news columns and editorial page the necessity for making this great loan successful. "The American people have consumed the greatest financial achieve ment in all history." Wm. G. McAdoo. THE NAVY AND THE FOURTH LOAN --- The United States Navy subscribed to $45,218,450 of the Fourth Loan. Of this sum nearly $9,000,000 was subscribed by the officers and sailors on duty on our ships in the war zones. Mrs. George Dewey, the Widow of the great Admiral, had her subscription to the Loan credited to the Navy. The Navy's subscription to the Fourth Loan is $10,000,000 more than its subscription to the First, Second, and Third Loans combined and between $15,000,000 and $20,000,000 more than its assigned quota. The Navy did its duty in the Fourth Loan with the same superb spirit that it does its duty in the fighting zones. The Navy is doing its part in the fighting and in the financing of the Nation, and going on to both. It may be relied on, too, that the Navy is going to keep its bonds. Our Navy never does its duty only halfway. No feature of the Fourth Loan is more inspiring than the heavy oversubscription of the officers and men of the American Navy. Don't surrender your Liberty Bond conditionally or unconditionally. THE FOURTH LIBERTY LOAN THE GREATEST SINGLE EVENT IN FINANCIAL HISTORY. --- The United States Government asked a loan from the people of the country of $6,000,000,000, an amount unprecedented in all the history of the world. In three weeks' time, in spite of fanaticism of influenza which prevented public meetings and cost the people many millions of dollars in medical bills and lost time, and in spite, too, of the peace rumors that in some instances had a tendency to make the success of the loan seem less vital some 21,000,000 of the American people offered to the Government of $8,664,416,350. Each Federal Reserve district oversees its quota. Thousands of cities, towns and communities oversee the quota. Secretary McAdoo says that the Fourth Liberty Loan is the greatest single event in financial history. The Fourth Loan was called the fighting loan: It is a record of Americanism comparable with the record hour soldiers on the battlefronts and our sailors on the seas are making. The people at home have given loyal support to our fighting men. Our soldiers are holding every acre Our soldiers are holding every acre of ground they take. Let the people some hold every Liberty Bond they have taken. A Liberty Bond is a certificate of patriotism; keep it to show to our boys when they come back from Europe. REHABILITATION OF OUR WOUND-ED. The United States Government is resolved to do its best to restore every wounded American soldier and sailor activity. Until his discharge from the hospital all the medical and surgical treatment necessary to restore him to health is under the jurisdiction of the military or naval authorities, according to the branch of the service he is in. The vocational training, the reeducation and rehabilitation necessary to restore him to self-supporting activity, is under the jurisdiction of the Federal Board for Vocational Education. If he needs an artificial limb or mechanical appliance the Government will supply it free, will keep it in repair, and renew it when necessary. If after his discharge he again needs medical treatment on account of his disamility, the Government will supply it free. While he is in the hospital and while in training afterwards the soldier or sailor will receive compensation as if in service and his family or dependents will receive their allotment. A wounded soldier or sailor, although his disability does not prevent him from returning to employment with the company, he vocational training, free of cost and the compensation provided by the warrisk insurance act will be paid to him and the training will be free, but no allotment will be paid to his family. Every Liberty Bone holder who holds a bone fund plan of this great work of restoring to health strength, and usefulness the men who have suffered for their country. HOLD YOUR LIBERTY BONDS. 1. The American soldiers in France are taking territory and holding it. The American people at home having taken Liberty Bonds should hold them. This is not only patriotic but it is very sound finance. Liberty Bonds are safe, and the probabilities are that they will greatly rise in value. Hold your Liberty Bonds. HOLD YOUR LIBERTY BONDS. 一 There is a notion very prevalent in the United States that when the American soldiers return home they are going to feel very kindly toward the subscribers to the Liberty Loans. Liberty Bonds are incontrovertible evidence that the purchaser has supported the government, has supported theiders abroad in this war. Keep that evidence if myour possession until the boys come home. HOLD YOUR LIBERTY BONDS. --- Hold fast to that which is good Keep your Liberty Bonds. THE COLORED MEN ELECT IN WEST VIRGINIA. --- Charleston, W. Va., Nov. 9.—REsulting from Tuesday's election three colored men will have sworn in the clooser house when West Virginia's legislature convenes next January, rivaling the record of any State since the days of Reconstruction. The successful candidates, nominated, in primaries and elected on the Republican ticket, are J. V. Coleman, of Fayette County, formerly postmaster at Kimberly, now engaged in the production of coal; H. J. Capehart, of McDowell County, an attorney at law, and T. G. Nutter, former Grand Exalted Ruler of the Elks, at present Grand Chancellor of the nKights of Pythias. Mr. Nutter is also an attorney. Fayette and McDowell counties have had colored legislators before the former three and the latter one, but at no time has there been more than one colored representative in the legislature. The nomination and election of these men is considered remarkable for the fact that in none of the counties which they represent is there a majority of colored voters, the per cent of colored voters 34.

Citizens of Both Races Join in Royal Welcome to Colored Winner of the French Crux de gueur—Recep- tion Directed by Mayor Donnelly —Ringing Letter from Emnett J Scott. --- Trenton, N. J., November 11—Crowds of people, including citizens of both races, of Trenton and the adjoining communities, joined in a monster home-coming reception last Wednesday night in honor of Private Needham Roberts, the Negro soldier halling from Trenton, member of the 369th Infantry—the "Fighting Fifteenth" of New York—who so distinguished himself in France some months ago by his bravery and rare fighting qualities as to win the French Croix de Guerre and a personal citation for valorous conduct from General Pershing, Commander-in-Chief of the American Expeditionary Forces. It will be remembered that Roberts with a fellow-soldier in arms, Harry Johnson, put to rout twenty Germans, who attacked them while they were doing guard duty at one of the Allies' most important strategic points on France's western front. They thus saved the lives of thousands of their deeping soldier comrades. The reception was general throughout Trenton and its environs, and an impromptu parade was one of the string features of the occasion, participated in by the appreciative citizens, regardless of race or color. At a big mass meeting, held in the State Armory, H Fncoedo $H$HRDLD State Armory, H. Frederick W Donnelly, Mayor of Tronent, through whose earnest co-operation the reception was conceived and made a brilliant success, presided and delivered a stirring address, in which he lauded without stint the masterly courage of Tronent's hero. A ringing laughter of Tronent's accent was Special Assistant to the Secretary at Washington, who presented by Special business from her present Dr. Scott's letter was as follows: --- CLASSIFICATION OF MEN OVER 37 IS DISCONTINUED EJAMINATION BY BOARDS OF THOSE UNDER THAT AGE WILL PROCEED.

MEMBER NATIONAL NEGRO PRESS ASSOCIATION Nashville, Tenn., Nov. 15, '18 TRUE BLUE CITIZENS. New York, November 12—When the United War Work Campaign opened Monday of this week and the hundreds of thousands of solicitors in every city, town and rural district in the United States started to raise the millions needed for the fund, certain true-blood American citizens were able to sit back and watch the rest of the country dig down in its pockets, their quotas in some instances doubled, tripled and even quadrupled. These true-blood citizens are none other than Georgia and North Carolina Negroes. With a friendly competition on in these states between colored and white people as to which will first subscribe their alotments, R. H. King, campaign director for the Southeastern Army Department, has wired Dr. John R. Mott, head of the Yale that in one county Negroes already have raised 625,000 cash. Their share of the quota is $3,000. The white citizens in consequence have been given a new quota of their own. A county in North Carolina furnishes the piece de resistance, howeevr.

St. Louis, Mo., Nov. 14—Owing to the epidemic which prevailed in these parts last month the opening of the new $250,000.00 Poro College building was deferred, but from information given out by Prof. Aaron E. Malone and wife, the building will positively be opened Thanksgiving week, as the ban for Missouri has been lifted. The preparation is being made to have the affair one of the most notable ones that has occurred in this section. Prominent speakers from various sections of the United States have been invited. Among those on program will be the Rev. Henry Allen Boyd, the Secretary of the Sunday School Congress of Nashville, Tenn.

ARIE BAPTIST CHURCH, SOUTH NASHVILLE, IN A GREAT REVIVAL One of the greatest revivals in the history of the Mt. Arie Baptist Church is now on. Pastor Shorts is preaching great sermons which are said to be the plainest as well as the most important. He is pleasing ever heard in a revival in this church. He strongly preaches the gospel plan of salvation and he is holding his congregation spell bound. All are looking forward to Saturday evening reward service. "To any one who will show that any of the apostles of Jesus Christ obtained salvation by praying for it and preached such will be rewarded $5.00 in gold. Theological proof shall only be accepted." It is said by some of Nashville's past De Shorts will have to give the $5.00 in gold.

My Dear Sister—I am very well at this present time. Hope you and the rest are hhe same. I hope you all received the photo of my quartette O. K. I have just written mother, have been trying to get chance to write you for some few days and tell you for the "American Home Dinner in France," which was given by Ordenier, 1st Class Geo., Lieutenant Parris, Ky., in behalf of his many soldier friends and their separation of companies D. C. and B. from Company "A." As the four companies were together and the other three had to leave and go "Somewhere else in France." The table was set September 27th in a battalion blacksmith shop, and looked very nice and quite homely with the good things on it to eat. We rested our hats on the anvil, our knife and our gloves. We were burning and we had sufficient light and at 7:30 p. m., the table was in full bloom and all present. Those present were: Bugler, John Isom, an attendant of Biddle University, Charlotte, N. C.; Bugler Shivers, Fisk University, Nashville, Tenn.; Pvt. 1st Class, Maurice Weatherford, Pearl High School, Nashville, Tenn.; Orderly Edward Middleton, Georgetown High School, Georgetown, Ky.; Pvt. 1st Class Wm.

Johnson, Louisville High School, Louisville, Ky.; Orderly Ge. E. Letton of Paris, Ky.; an attendant of the Southern Christian Lusitane, Edwards, Miss. The dinner was prepared by cook John Wright of Nashville, Tenn., and could not have been beaten. Every thing had such a homely season and flavor that we all just put our imaginations towards home and with plenty jokes and songs we certainly enjoyed ourselves. The table was blessed by Orderly Geo. E. Letton of Paris, Kv. and the closing song was "Mv Old Kentucky Home," by Pvt. 1st class Maurice Weatherford. I am very glad to know that Orderly Geo. E. Letton had such a feeling for his soldier friends and am glad indeed also to say that he put quite a thinking feeling on the boys who were present by having the great and only opportunity of eating "An American Dinner in France." Well sister as my candles are burning low and I have said quite a few words, my time forbids me from saying any more, so I shall close, hoping you, mother and the rest of the family "A Merry Xmas."

WEST FAYETTEVILLE Miss Blanche Roberson, the popular young daughter of Mrs. Henrietta Roberson, 315 Campbell St., is devoting much of her time and energy to the welfare of the boys in the trenches by knitting jackets and other things which go to the front through the Red Cross. Miss Roberson spent several months of this year in Chattanooga visiting her aunt, Mrs. Fannie Carty. We were very sorry to learn of the death of the wife of our dear friend. Rev. D. S. Ransom, pastor in charge at Chattanooga, Tenn., one of the leading A. M. E. Churches. Mrs. Ransom was a good woman and a prominent citizen in Tullahoma, Tenn. Rev. Ransom and his good wife were reared in Fayetteville. Tullahoma speaks well of them in its news from the Globe of Nov. 1st, 1918. When the word reached Fayetteville of the death of Mrs. Mollie Fannon Jones, the wife of the popular pastor of St. Paul A. M. Church. Rev. H. L. P. Jones, it was a shock to her many frinches in Fayetteville. Her death occurred in Tullahoma, November 1st, after a few weeks illness. For Fayetteville was the childhood home of Mr. Jones where she was one of the most popular young ladies in our city. She was loved by all who knew her. Rev. Jones and family have the sympathy of their many friends in this report. Bro. N. M. Rainie the reporter is in receipt of a very interesting letter from Mr. Alton Shull, who left by Uncle Sam's call a good while ago. He speaks very kindly of the reception accorded him by the men among who he works and states that he is in good health. He thinks all Tennessee boys will come home soon. Wishes to be remembered kindly to all friends he made and loved in that dear old county of Lincoln. Mr. Riley Canney of 207 W. Maple St. returned to Camden this week after spending a few days with home folks. Mr. Clipson Thompson of Dresden, Dan., will visit here in December. His many friends will be glad to see him. His many Canney has returned from Dalton, Ga., after a visit to relatives. Mr. Cassie Bryson has returned from Dalton, Ga., reporting a pleasant trip. Prof. C. D. Bright, after a lingering illness, is much improved at this writing. His many friends are glad to know of hiscovery. We want to say to our readers of the Globe, please don't throw this paper aside—because you don't see a long letter in it from this place and say it is no good this week. Act right and stand by your colored newspapers. If you want news to go in this paper send it to Nashville Globe, 447 Fourth Ave., N. It will only cost you the stamps it takes to carry it. Then you will always have the news of your own city. You must help us to help you and to do so we must hang together and survive or we will hang separately and perish. We regret to say some of our teachers and reading leaders will speak slightly of this paper when they should be proud of such a paper published by your own boys and girls. From the Southern Division Red Cross Headquarters has come instructions that any person wishing to send a Christmas package to some one who has not been able to send home that person by going to Red Cross Headquarters Tulane, secure the carton and arrange for the sending of the parcel. WOMEN, GIRLS, FEED YOUR HUNGRY SGALP Thousands are Being Fed with the 1121 N. Whittier St. St. Louis, Mo. RED CROSS NEWS by signing their name to a statement that proves the right to have the label. This signature must be witnessed and approved by the committee in charge of Christmas parcels. Mrs. W. L. Granberry who is chairman of the Christmas parcels, with headquarters at the Tulane Red Cross Work Room, is ready to begin on this new work of helping those without overseas labels with their Christmas packages. She urges those desiring to take advantage of this opportunity to come at once and sign the card which entitles them to a box for shipping. As all packages must be ready by November 20th, next Wednesday, there is no time to lose. Go to see Mrs. Granberry as soon as you possibly can and get full instructions. She will tell you everything you have to do and will help you get the box at once. You have only a week more so if you do not want your soldier homesick and disappointed on Christmas day, get busy right now. In response to many inquiries received by the Red Cross as to whether Christmas parcels may be sent to Americans serving with the Red Cross, the Y. M. C. A., the Knights of Columbus and other similar organizations operating in connection with the military forces of the United States and the Allies and to individuals serving in the armies of the Allies, the War Trade Board has worked out a plan by which it is possible to make shipments to the above classes of individuals. This plan is similar to that under which parcels may be sent to soldiers overseas, but instead of presenting the label from overseas, application for a carton must be made in writing, declaring that the applicant is the nearest living relative in the United States of the recipient, and that he has not made and will not make any other Christmas shipment this year to the same person. This application should be approved by some one appointed for the purpose by the Red Cross Chapter and returned to the applicant with a Christmas carton which must be filled and presented for inspection in the same manner as the soldiers' parcels. The sender should address the parcel plainly and also put his own name and address as sender on the outside. In the case of parcels for soldiers sufficient postage must be affixed to carry the package at fourth class rates only as far as Hoboken, N. J., but in the case of parcels for the above named classes of individuals sufficient postage at the fourth class rate must be affixed to carry the parcel to its ultimate destination. DEATH OF MRS. ADA L. NEALY Tuesday morning at her home on Third Avenue, the death angel called from the world, Miss Ada Nealy.

The deceased was also a member of the Third Avenue Baptist Church from which her funeral was held Wednesday at 2 p. m., attended by the pastor, Rev J. L. Harding. A mother, sister and a host of friends are left to mourn their loss. The bereaved ones have the sympathy of the church and friends.

FIGHTING MISS BURROUGHS (Continued from above) (Continued from page 1) right; that she firmly believes in the cause of the National Training School and the competency and fidelity of the women at its head and will brook no chicacery to oust her or interfere with the performance of her duties in any way. Men and women of New Jersey stand firm for a respectable and unaterable Women's Convention as long as the women of the Northern Baptist Convention support principles. But M. M. Rodgersology and L. K. Williamiams will be uncomfortable in Jersey. We are praying for peace and union in the two split conventions, and even a split of the old convention is disjointed and torn asunder. Let us pray for union especially among the leaders, Dr. Morris and Mrs. Layton, so that in union we may have strength to consolidate the convention once more. We of Jersey are willing to follow leaders, but are not willing to be led into a degraded squabble. We are not willing to be led by women who cannot thing for themselves or who can be used by the men to "mother" their schemes. Think of women in the convention declaring themselves sufferagettes and in the next breath saying "You know we are under the brethren." If we cannot run the convention without the interference of a few church politicians, it is time for us to close up and go into the men's organization where we will be "under the brethren" indeed and in truth. "Aux., does not mean unded, it means "aid to." Political conventions instruct delegates, but our men discredit our sense when they tell us what to do and what to say. "By their fruits ye shall know them." The National Baptist Convention as represented by the men has been sadly barren of results. Shall we submit to the whims of an organization who for twenty years has been building a Theological Seminary for the youths of our country and still this is but a fragment of the fertile imagination of our strong men. "While the men dreamed dreams and had visions, the women under God have presented a living reality, a visible monument and a source of inspiration. God forbid that their wonderful work should inspire jealousy, incite envy, or breed avarice." Miss Burroughs is in the hearts of the people of Jersey. Would we might say of all the prelates because of her personality, her fruits, because she has been the moving figure in bringing this living reality to pass. We follow her because we bieve in her. No fight in Jersey, this is holy ground. L. K. Williams once accused the corresponding secretary of attempting to split the convention. It will never be split by her. Let the critics and dissensionists bow down and pray for peace. Biss Burroughs will ever stand for unity. She was gifted of God to perform a great work and to achieve greatness. Let us thank a kind Providence who directors are but to mobilize the forces her genius in our behalf. Her ef of the women for the good and better. It rests with the leaders of both developments of the convention work, conventions, Mrs. Layton and Dr. Morris, to quit dissension and the peace. Let them not be ruled in their places and whose offices not to be ministered unto, but to minister must be really like Him, to give their dives, it needs be, not over to the petty ambitions of a few, but as a ransom for many. Let us go to Jersey forgetting petty and personal pride and misunderstanding, remembering that "A house divided against itself cannot stand." RED CROSS NURSE WRITES REV TAYLOR. SENDS MESSAGE FROM SERGT. B. H. THOMPSON WHO ALSO WRITES—IN HOSPITAL One of the many instances where the Red Cross Nurses are showing deep interest in the welfare of their patients and those they nurse is shown in a recent letter received in Nashville this week by Rev. Preston Taylor, who is Brig. General for the State of Tennessee. Uniform Rank Knights of Pythias. The letter was written in the interest of Sergt B. H. Thompson, who is now with the 372nd comehere in France. Sergt Thompson was a member of Volunteer Company No. 5, Uniform Rank, Knights of Pythias. The first message came from Sergt. Thompson, who says: Gen. Taylor: I am one of your old boys, over here in France, that had charge of No. 5 Uniform Rank, K. of P., and a member of Stringer Lodge. I would like to know how you are sitting along. Am in the hospital and will like to hear from you. I was sergeant when I left home and I do not want to be anything else. You always taught us to go up. Have just learned of the death of Major Hall: "Yours truly, SERGT. B. H. THOMPSON, "Co. K, 372nd R. I. U. S. S. P. 179 A. R. C., Hospital No. 5 Following close behind the card came a letter from the nurse, which is interesting because of its earnestness in its efforts to console. She said: "Dear Sir: "I wrote the enclosed card today for Sergt. Thompson and am taking the liberty of writing a few lines myself t oask you to please him. They appreciate a letter so much. "Both of his arms are wounded and all bandaged up. Also a wound in the leg. There are about twenty men in this ward. They are so brave and patient. It is no joke to have a wound dressed, and they bear this pain without finching. America can well be proud of her men, such wonderful stories they tell. It is a long monotonous day for them, so some of we girls who are employed in the electrical department of the Red Cross visit them on Sundays as this is our only opportunity and this helps to break the monotony of the week, but some surely drags to some of the boys. "MISS J. D." DR. GRUBBES A LIEUTENANT. Rev. Preston Taylor has just received a letter from Dr. Royal W. Grubbis, who is now a lieutenant in the Medical Corps, stationed somewhere in France. Dr. Grubbis is a graduate of Meharry Medical College and is well known among a number of people in this city. He was a faithful church worker while a student here in school. His letter was written on the 15th of October and in part as follows: "Rev. Preston Taylor, Dear Dr. Taylor: "Just a few lines to let you know that I am well and getting along nicely. I often think of you, Mrs. Taylor and the church. My wife also tells every time she sees you. While we are working hard over here, the work is interesting and a pleasure because we feel every effort lessens some one's pain and it is to his comfort. We are not excited over the present peace talk, but we are working patiently for a lasting peace. However, we feel that the end is near Mrs. Grubbs sent me a program of the Convention which I enjoyed very much. She also stated that the convention was very good indeed. I feel very glad when I shall be permitted to owe one thing to no other person in the world more of ten than you, because of the brisk ten and faithful advice you gave me when I was but a student in school Remember me to Mrs. Taylor, her mother, to Lea Avenue I Christian Church and any friends who ask of me or remember me.

Plans were made for a house- to-house visitation to include all parts of the city, but the epidemic inter- rupted. In order to keep in touch with the scholars, the superintendent has insisted upon the teachers visiting or writing to the members of their classes. Prior to the quarantine, the officials and members of the school very gladly welcomed, upon her first appearance after recovery, Miss Lueille R. Buckner, who, for several weeks, was confined at Speer's Hospital. For a long time, Miss Buckner has been pianist, a teacher in the school and also corresponding secretary. She has expressed the pleasure in being present and highest appreciation of the prayers and kind tokens of remembrance from the school and friends during her illness. Her friends will be glad to know that she is gradually gaining weight and strength. She is very appreciative in her expressions of every kindness extended by her many friends. In order to keep the church in proper working order during the epidemic, Pastor W. Augustus Jones summoned his official board and organized its members for the purpose of visitation. They were assigned to go, in groups of two or more, to the homes of their members and especially to the sick with prayer and consolation and report each Sunday at 4 p. m. during the quarantine period. They were very gratifying to all concerned, for many to benefit of this opportunity, by sending in their clubs. Several of the old clubs took up the work very cheerfully and promised to furnish a report each week for The Union. On account of the war and epic duel, Superintendent Hays requested the school officials, his family and his many friends not to observe his November 1st. Despite this request he and Mrs. and Mrs. Rahwik Hawkins entertained him Friday with a family supper. Mrs. Amanda Bennett entertained Saturday with a six o'clock dinner. Miss Margaret L. Hawkes Sunday with a 3 o'clock dinner and Mr. and Mrs. John R. Bucker Monday with a 6 o'clock dinner. Others remembered him through congratulatory letters, telegrams and local toll messages. Notably among these were the messages of Col and Mrs. Chas. Young, Pres. W. S. Scarborough, Miss Alice Jackson, Mrs. Odessa Price and Mrs. Etta C. Forte, now in Chicago. Congratulations from Mrs. Booker T. Washington and Mrs. Lorena C. Taylor, of Tuskegee Institute were expressed through flowers, the former sending a large bouquet of American beauty buds and the latter seventy-one? Chrysanthemums.

Labor recruiters to intercept women in war work are an development in the policy of the United States Employment Service, made necessary by the shortage of help at the Schuylkill Arsenal, where many soldier's 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 tothe emergency need for their services in industrial work, and listing five officers in Philadelphia where women might be involved in war work. Reports received at Employment Service headquarters have shown that in many districts women are being substituted rapidly for men whose places in industry have been left vacant through their service in the Army or Navy.

C. Nov. 5, 1918. Hon. Frederick W. Donnelly, Mayor, City of Trenton, Trenton, New Jersey. My dear Sir:—I note with pleasure that the people of Trenton have planned to hold a reception of citywide proportions on Wednesday night, at your suggestion, in honor of Private Needham Roberts, who so proudly distinguished himself on the battlefront in France as to win the Creix de Guerre. I am further gratified that you have done me the honor to invite me to present and participate in the exercises you have arranged for for the occasion. It is with the deepest regret that I must inform you that, owing to the tremendous pressure of official business here in the War Department, accumulated by reason of frequent and enforced absences from my desk for the past few weeks, it is impossible for me to be with you uand to add in person my tribute to the general fund of praise which this New Jersey hero has so richly earned. Although absent, in Washington, my heart will be with liberty-loving citizens of New Jersey. I shall rejoice with them that the first her sons to receive the Croix de Guerre and the personal citation of edenaishwing for bravery of a most extraordinary type has been returned to them, even if heartening the scars of the worldwide combat for freedom and democracy. To have had the opportunity to render this signal service at a curricular moment is in itself a reward and an honorable recognition, but the plaudits which you are reserving for Neelam Roberts Wednesday night are a capstone upon his marvelous achievement, and to him and to all of us that "Republicans are not ungrateful" to those who brave dancers for their preservation. Last Saturday night I was in New York, attending a meeting at Carnegie Hall—a monster meeting which also testified its admiration of Needham Roberts' wonderful courage and rare resourcefulness as a fighter and as a patriot. Irvin Cobb, whose hearty encomiums of the valor of the Negro soldier on the western front in France, known to him not by hearsay, but of which he was an eye-witness, has won for him the gratitude of colored Americans everywhere, gave to Needham Roberts a merited acknowledgment of the nation's indebtedness. He said that his timely action of this fearless warrior was risking death that thousands of his countrymen might live, entitled him to peace in history beside the immortal Crime Attacks, whose blood was the first to be shed in the Revolutionary struggle and who thus helped to law the foundation, firm and deep, of the American Republic—the greatest exponent of democracy in government that the world has ever seen. You do well to honor Needham Roberts while he is yet in the flesh—while he is able to be inspired by your salves or fapplause. The inspiration that you offer him goes out and be bended to the 12,000,000 Amer.can Negroes, each of whom will be hearted and by the generous words and publie-spirited appreciation of patriotic duty nobly performed, which appreciation you are to exhibit through your coral reception Wednesday night. Wishing for the occasion the fullest measure of success, I am Sincerely yours, EMMETT J. SCOTT. The speech of Roberts at the close of the exercises was a sturdy, but modest recital of the story of the dramatic encounter which has made the Negro soldier a central figure in this war of world-wide democracy. Roberts has been at Lakewood Hospital for some time, convalescing from the wounds he received on the battle field, and will now remain for an indesirable period at the home of his parents in this city. A BROAD GAUGE PUBLIC SERVICE Houston, Tex.-Houston's official Social Service Bureau directs the city's relief work, public health nursing, kindergartens, playgrounds, social centers and day nurseries. The work is centered in four "neighborhood houses." One of these is for colored people, the plan being to bring health, recreation and opportunity to all members of the community. At the Negro center the Bureau employs six workers: a trained social worker, two public health nurses, a day-nursery matron, a kindergartner, and her assistant. The Negroes themselves provide funds for relief, and part of the rent for the building. 2018 The city also maintains three night schools for colored working people, who are taught grade work, cooking, sewing and carpentry. With the assistance of the white prowess of the colored women have opened a house for delinquent colored girls. The city and the county are both interested in this enterprise, and have promised help. It is noteworthy that Virginia's very successful work for young colored delinquents was also begun by Negroes—that for the boys by a lawyer, and for the girls by a lawyer, and that both have won high praise and generous appropriations from the state. HOWARD CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH On Sunday night week "The Spirit of the Pilgrims," a most unique presentation of the higher Christian principles will be given at Howard Congregational Church. The special features are: (a) Eight young women in costume, representing the Spirit of the Pilgrims. (b) Impressive and appropriate music by the choir. (c) A brief offering for the Angola Mission in Africa. The arrangement and rendition of the entire program are such as to command the closest attention and deepest reverence of all who hear it. The public is corally invited to attend. Admission free. Come and bring your friends. Sunday night week, November 24th. 8:30 p. m. ST. JOHN A. M. E.

READ AT THE THIRD AVENUE BAPTIST CHURCH, SUNDAY AFTERNOON MY MRS. EVA JACKSON. Sister President, Ministers, Members friends: I have an important subject to briefly discuss. Why should we have a Seminary? The inspiration and training which the ordinary student gets from his studies in the colleges and universities is to mould and better fit him for the ordinary walks and pursuits of life. The Theological and Training Seminary is to inspire and train in a religious way those who wish to devote their lives to the spread of the gospel. The training is the word of the day, and only by training can the aspirant become an efficient worker. We need more ministers, better trained ministers, better prepared ministers. The minister who attends a Theological Seminary has his attention and his mind fixed on the special subject which will fit him for his chosen life work. Here he is taught the deeper philosophy of religion, the influence of a truly religious leadership. Here he is taught by example as well as precept, as only those who know and are well prepared as expected to instruct in the Seminary. In this school God and His word are the first and most important studies that the student takes up. The most significant thought of all the universe is the idea of God and our religion to Him. The students in our Seminary are being trained by our worthy and best thinkers to prove and test religious ideas and learn to know more about the Bible. Many centuries ago, the first type of Theological Seminary was known in Alexandria. But it was for the education of the Jews, only. Later the Christians were allowed to attend but now it is common among every civilized people, and the Negro Baptist of this country are to be given an opportunity to enter a Theological Seminary in Nashville, before to them and to be operated by them. 'So Holy Writ in babes hath judgment shown?' When judges have been babes, Great foods from simple sources flown, Great seas have dried, when mira- cles have my the greatest been divided." Think when our souls understand the great word which all things new, when earth breaks up and heaven expands. How will the change strike and you, in the house not made with hands. NEGRO PUBLIC LIBRARY The Story-Tellers' League held its first meeting at the Library Sunday, Nov. 10th. Mrs. Katherine P. Wright was the speaker of the afternoon. She spoke on "Story-telling its Value in a Child's Life." Representatives from Sunday schools, public schools and other institutions for the advancement of man were present.

The Dramatic Club will act out the Pilgrim stories at the story hour, Nov. 16th at 3:00 p. m. The public is cordially invited.

It has been quite a while since I heard from you and father and the lofs at home. I am not well at this writing, yet I am up and able to walk around. I was very in a few weeks past, having been gassed on the 21st of September and I have been in the hospital. Mother I see that God was with me for my chances were narrow, yet I escaped with sight injury, while many who were with me sustained quite a few serious injuries. Yes I know that God is with me. Give my life to the neighbors and especially to the cavern. I see that my cavern is praying for me because I have been victorious thus far in all of my undertakings. I have been promoted to Sergeant, am learning to play a saxophone and I can also speak a little French. Give my best regards we may inquire of me. Mother I always tell that your prayers were with me, out since being here in France I know that your prayers have followed me day by day. The nurse and the doctors have all been very good to me. I did not want for attention. My best and greatest love for your dear self. I must close now. Paul J. Loring, Soy. Sergt. Winn. H. Stewart, K. Co. 372 K. L. U. S. S. P. 179 France. CITY ITEMS M.

SOUTHERN CHURCH WOMEN ASS SIST COLORED WOMEN Nashville, Tenn.—Representatives of the Woman's Missionary Council of the Southern Methodist Church, recently met here with the women of the colored Methodist Church, when a woman's Council of Missions was organized on the lines of the white women's Council. Permission for organization had been granted by the colored general conference on presentation of petitions from the women of the denomination and from the Council of Southern Methodist women. 24 conferences of the C. M. E. Church were represented from nine states, and the work was thoroughly organized. For the present the colored Council adopted the missionary publications of the white Council. A Deaconess Board was provided to secure and train educated young women for community service. There will be close cooperation with the white Council in the latter's settlement work among colored people, successfully carried on in several cities for some years.

WHAT THE YMCA DOES FOR THE COLORED MAN IN KHAKI Top: Negro band, first group, 165th brigade, Camp Travis, Texas, Taken just outside Army Y. M. C. A. building No. 1, devoted exclusively to negro troops. (Negro secretary in charge.) Center: Negro "Y" secretary teaching class. Men from first group, 165th depot brigade. Note the boy immediately in front of teacher book upside down. But as in everything else, he wanted to be in on the picture, so when the photographer appeared he grabbed a piece of literature and proceeded to "look wise." Bottom: Class of illiterates. The lesson absorbing the attention of the class is, "See the Boy Hit the dog." The Y. M. C. A. does wonders for the white soldier, but at the same time it is the friend of the negro. The colored man in khaki can look to the "Y" for friendliness and comfort—and he gets it. In all camps the huts that have been established for the negroes are constantly crowded. Two hundred and seventy secretaries with 22 huts are working among the negroes in the camps of America. The association has sent forty-five secretaries overseas, with twenty-five approved and ready to sail to care for the men on the shell-shaken continent. Work among the colored troopers has been far-reaching in its influence and all negroes in the uniform of Uncle Sam have been materially benefited by the organization, one of the seven taking part in the gigantic war work drive. LEBANON Pickett Chapel M. E. Church is yet alive and certainly feels proud of their new pastor, the Rev. A. Ranson.

Zion Baptist Church. On Friday night the weather was fair but Oh, how it did rain in the Methodist parsonage. So many things to eat. Mrs.' Ransom opened the table for her, and about 55 persons entered and loaded their table with 128 pounds of provisions and Rev. and Mrs. Ransom highly appreciated what their friends did for them. Rev. and Mrs. O. D. Henry left Tuesday morning for Springfield, Ohio, where they will make their future home. The people regret to see Rev. and Mrs. Henry leave. They have won many friends here. Rev. Henry was pastor of the Holy Mission for 14 months. Mr. and Mrs. R. G. Anderson of GI E. Ransom for 64 persons of Rev. and Mrs. O. D. Henry, Sunday at 6 o'clock dinner, Mrs. Lou Jordan and daughter, Miss Ethel spent last Thursday in Nashville, shopping. The rally at the Mt. Zion Baptist Church, Sunday was a success.

THE SMITH-HUGHES VOCATION AL WORK AT TUSKEGEE IN STITUTE. Tuskegee Institute, Nov. 9—Mr. William N. Berry, a graduate of the University of Wisconsin, and for four years Director of Agriculture at Wilberforce University, has joined the Agricultural Faculty here where he will devote most of his attention to the educational side of the work, leaving the Agricultural Director, Mr. F. H. Cardozo, to give his entire attention to the administrative work. With the coming of Mr. Berry, the Smith-Hughes vocational work is being thoroughly organized. Mrs. A. Forner, a number of years instructor in the Industrial High School at Birmingham, Ala., and who recently completed a course at the Chicago School of Civics, is in charge of the Home Economics training in Dorothy Hall. Dr. R. R. Moton, Principal, in speaking of the Smith-Hughes work, said, "There is a great future ahead for the young men and women of our race who are trained in the Smith-Hughes courses, for after the war, there will be opportunities of the most unusual sort. Already there is persistent talk in high official circles of providing farm land for the returned soldiers. So when demobilization begins, the attention of the country is certain to be directed in a large way to agricultural matters. There will also be calls for trained agricultural experts who will be called upon to help the ex-soldier farmers to adjust themselves to new conditions. The same situation will no doubt obtain in the industries where trained industrial workers will be in great demand. We are very glad to add Mrs. Zuber and Mr. Berry to our Staff of Smith-Hughes workers." The Smith-Hughes course offers teacher-training in Agriculture Trades and Home Economics.
