DR.E.P.JONES DE-LIVERS ADDRESS MASTERLY ORATOR AT MEETING FLOW OF ORATORY AT CONFERENCE—OUTLINES PLAN OF UNINCORPORATED BAPTISTS—NPREREQUISITES SHOWN. (Reported and transcribed by Mrs. C. J. White.) Mr. President: I came to this meeting to hear and to study the problems with which we have been dealing since we parted at Chicago. I did not intend to say a word. I had hoped at this meeting I might take such an insight and get such information as would forever settle my convictions. I have listened with profound interest to the remarks of Dr. E. C. Morris the president of the incorporated convention. No man here delights to do honor this man for his worth more than I. I challenge any individual here or else where to repeat any remark that I have ever made which looks like the belittling of any of these distinguished gentlemen whose views run counter to options which I cherish and revere. I honor you Dr. Morris, because you stand for that which you believe to be correct and yet I shall not lose my privilege of condemning your reasons that will lead to destruction and ruin. I count it my duty now and here you understand that you are in error and that the course that you are pursuing will eventually lead into a shadowy and false attitude with 1930 M. B. REV. E. P. JONES. D. D. President National Baptist Convention (Unincorporated). relation to our racial future. I regret the remarks of our distinguished Dr. W. H. Moses. We thought that he had come here for PEACE. We thought that he wanted a reunited Convention but here in the presence of these brethren and before this company Dr. Moses has declared that the Publishing Board and money is the consideration. It is painful to me that he should have made this statement. I wonder if he has chosen to make the coin the realm the uppermost of his life and the scholarship to the denial of brotherhood. I want to understand that the day will never come in the history of my life when I shall chose power and wealth to the disregard of the effections of my brethren. You demand control of the Publishing Plant and why may I ask you do seek the control of this particular plant to the exclusion of the other Boards? Are they all not equally as important? Have you taken the Foreign Mission Board, the Educational Board and the other Boards of the Convention? Are we to understand that your coming here to secure PEACE is simply to get control of the Publishing Board? You know and I know the Baptists of House is owned that the Publishing House is owned that the Negro Baptists of Ameries and is held by the trustees and incorporated under the laws of the State of Tennessee and is the only really successful achievement of the Negro Baptists in this country. You are seeking to control it and I make this inquiry? What would be the difference between its management under your control as far as administration is concerned? Are not those who are in control of the Publishing Board as much entitled to the name, real, genuine Baptists as any who might be proposed? You yourselves have admitted that the management is faultless or as near as human management can be, then you come here now all us that you do not care for other students in your institution. I fear my brethren that are mistaken and mislead. I want here and now to admit that for many years I was a student and sat at the feet of the distinguished ex-president and many of you will agree that I ardently supported him in days gone by. He told us and he told you and told the clerk in the office at the capitol that the articles of incorporation were correct and that he stood for them. For fifteen years this was --- NOTICE TO READERS: When you finish read- ing, place the Nashville Globe on the U. S. placemant U. S. placemant on notice, hand same to any U.

I emphasize this position that I can not longer follow any individual who on one day declares an instrument perfect and the next day attempts to destroy it. I would not have you leave this building till you know the position of the Convention over which I have the honor to preside. They are united in declaring that the charter secured by you at Washington is un-Baptistic, unfair and seeks to accomplish the destruction of the Publishing Board. The incorporators were without right in securing this charter. The Convention had twice gone on record as opposed to any such proceeding and yet the thing that is most amusing is that you should have presumed that the securing of the charter at Washington, D.C., would upset the authority he obviated by the charter under the laws of the state of Tennessee. It is ridiculous how absurd such a contention appears. The State of Tennessee will walk a dangerous path whenever in the course of its life it neglects its domestic institutions to the advancement of foreign enterprises and in this particular anticipation you are attempting something foreign to the minds of men of wisdom and sagacity. You refused to hear the majority at Chicago. The records compiled by your Secretary show that the National Baptist Convention failed to sustain the chair when an appeal had been taken from it by vote of 504 to 310. Dr. Morris resisted. Dr. Parks assumed the chair and attempted to adjourn the convention. No man can adjourn Baptists without their consent. The majority refused to hear any such Czar-like utterances and proceeded to elect Dr. J. E. Wood of Kentucky as President pro tem. Committees of Enrollment etc., were appointed. Enrollments were made and the Committee on Permanent Organization reported and an election was held. I do not here stop to discuss the result. After the 1910 election had been held and business had been carried on the former president returned and assumed to himself the authority which the Convention had otherwise placed. These are the facts. These are undeniable truths and a new dawn shall come they will stand like mountains of disaster in their past and future here and now you tell that till they willuglize to the Baptists of the nation for your closing the doors of the armory in Chicago and placing a platoon of twenty-five policemen to guard the entrance of your brethren, when the winds of Lake Michigan were blowing and the Michigan were blowing and the rains were falling you can not expect any terms of PEACE to be made here. WE ARE AT PEACE. We love you each of our ways lead into night and destruction and while we have followed you in the past a new day has arisen and in these days when misrule and autocracy are having their death knell sounded we do not contemplate a return to the follies of yesterday. BAPTIST WOMEN PUSH CAMPAIGN At the state headquarters of the Baptist Convention of Tennessee much activity is evidenced. The campaign on giving momentum under the management of the women of the state seems to be the all-absorbing topic. The executive committee of women under the direction of Mrs. C. J. White as chairman has gotten in touch with five hundred leutenants in the various towns and sections of the state, outlining to them their work and making an appeal to them for full service. "We will have no sensed to us for this particular occasion. Every one is interested in the education of our people, but this is doubly enforced when we say religious education because we do want an educated ministry, teachers and work in the mission fields; so this drive in the interest of our Theological Training. Seminary on the part of the women will meet with heavy response. The women are asked to roll up their sleeves and go heart and soul into the movement and to make reports as their work progresses," said Mrs. White this week after she had addressed the Baptist Ministers' Conference and after she had mailed out several hundred letters of instruction throughout the state. NASHVILLE A CITY OF OPPORTUNITY--THE LEADING NEGRO JOURNAL IN TENNESSEE. NASHVILLE, TENN., FRIDAY, DECEMBER 13, 1918. BAPTIST PEACE COM MISSION ADJOURNS U.S. GOVERNMENT OUR BOYS ARE DOING THEIR BIT FOR THE CAUSE OF DEMOCRACY- SHALL OUR GIRLS BE FOUND LESS PATRIOTIC COLORED RED CROSS MURSE RECRUITING STATION EMMETT J. SCOTT JOS. TANVER As early Tuesday morning and continuing until Thursday morning representative colored and white Baptists from the various states in the Union were coming into the city as members of the Peace Commission of the National Baptist Convention (Incorporated) and National Baptist Convention (unincorporated) and the Southern Baptist Convention (white) and many other members and friends of the two colored conventions respectively. The meeting, according to previous arrangements and announcements, was called to order at eleven o'clock in the First Baptist Church (white) by the Rev. Mullins, president of the Southern Baptist Seminary at Louisville, Ky., who acted as temporary chairman in perfecting the permanent organization which resulted in the Commission, which resulted in the Board and beloved Dr. Gambrell, president of the Southern Baptist Convention as permanent chairman. Rev. C. J. W. Boyd, Prof. Chas. H. Stewart, O. L. Halley were elected secretaries. Dr. Halley, who had acted in that capacity in the last peace conference to decline and allow others of the colored brethren who were elected to do the work. However, he did not insist upon his deposition, but did not render any active service in that capacity. There was a beautiful exposition of friendship and brotherly love exhibited on the face and expressed in language by all present. It was a real Baptist meeting on a high order, for the doors were not closed against the public. While no invitation had been extended, the question was not raised as to whether visitors would be allowed to sit during the meeting of the joint sessions. Wisdom and experience of the Commission were shown in the concise and fair rules adopted as a course of instruction. Perhaps the most important, one was that which provided that all questions affecting either conventions with the Commissions here assembled were to be given time to meet separately and apart from the joint session and consider and vote upon said questions and report back to the joint session. This rule was quickly adhered to. There seemed to have been an earnest desire on the part of all to have peace and finally get to gather in a reunited body. However, during the session there were strong arguments made in support of their respective views, and great speeches made explaining the same. Each of the colored commissions elected its spokesman to represent them, and one hour was given each of the spokesmen to lay their side of the question before the joint commission. Dr. John H. Frank, the editor of the National Baptist Union-Review, was the spokesman for the unincorporated convention, Dr. W. H. Moses, the general field secretary of the incorporated convention, was spokesman for that body. Dr. Gambrell, after addressing the brethren upon the importance of the meeting, asked them to present, and the outlook for the future work and development, thanked the Commission for the honor conferred upon him to preside over them and asked their co-operation to the end that everything that should be done might redown to the honor and glory of God. He then called upon the unincorporated commission, or rather Dr. Frank, to present whatever he had on behalf of his commission, whereupon Dr. Frank spoke for forty-five minutes in a most profound and logical speech. He laid before the vast audience the questions at issue that caused the separation of the convention, together with those that have arisen since to keep them apart and widen the breach, and as he put it, he stated the case, defined the issue and showed the effect, then applied the remedy by submitting as prerequisites to peace and reunion the following: That the lawsuits in Chicago, Ill., against the National Baptist Convention (unincorporated) to prevent them from using the name NATIONAL BAPTIST CONVENTION, must be dismissed. The ministerial embargo encouraged and practiced by the brethren of the incorporated convention and associations and churches, must be lifted, and reputable ministers of the gospel must be accorded the due courtesy and recognition which belongs to them, which is characteristic of a friendly Christian brotherhood, and the practice of the unambitastic manner of churches being held together by the reception receiving members from churches belonging to the unincorporated convention without letters, as an act of disrecognition to the churches who belong to the unincorporated convention, must be discontinued and discouraged; and the lawsuit against the National Baptist Publishing Board at Nashville, must be withdrawn. When Dr. Frank concluded, the chair called upon Dr. W. H. Moses of the incorporated convention, to submit what he had to submit on their behalf. Dr. Moses arose, and after making a strong presentation of their case, stated that it was the desire, and not only the desire, but the intention, and not only the intention, it was their determination to get together at any cost, and he deemed it unnecessary for him to make a lengthy speech. After speaking for forty minutes and relying to the speech of Dr. Frank, he concluded with recapitulation of the things submitted by Dr. Frank as a basis of peace and ultimate re-union, and presented as the basis of his co-operation with the Memphis commission and approved by his convention when it met in St. Louis last September. Then short speeches were made by distinguished Baptists of each of the three conventions touching the questions as they had been presented by the two spokesmen. The venerable chairman, Dr. Gambrell, exhibited such patience and forbearance that made his example an inspiration to all present, and as such every member was allowed to have his say without intimidation or sarcastic reflection, intimidation or illogical, they were free, felt free and so spoke. When all the superfluous "Gas," as it was kindly styled by the chairman, had been exhausted, everybody was ready for the appointment of a sub-committee to take them and report back to the commission and re-close. A motion presented to that chair, and the chairman appointed five from each colored commission and at 1:30 the commission took recess to reassemble at four o'clock. So intensely interested were the visions of many of them did not go to their regular stopping places for dinner, but remained in and near the church, some buying fruit and others doing without. Promptly at the hour of four Dr. Gambrell called the Commission to order and opened the session with prayer by Dr. B. J. Prince of Chicago, Illinois, then the chairman inquired if the sub-committee of ten was ready to report, to which the sub-committee replied that they had only been in session fifteen minutes and were not ready to report. When this announcement was made by the chairman several spontaneously requested Dr. Gambrell to address the meeting. He kindly consented and proceeded by saving he was a "Negro Baptist preacher" before many of the commissioners were born, for in his early history he preached regularly for Negro Baptist churches, and in a short time he covered a wide range of subjects in a way that lifted all who heard him and inspired hope for the future that better days are coming for the Negro people, and what would help the Negro Baptists would also help the white Baptists of the South. He said: "One of the results of this war would be to produce a different kind of statesman and politician, congressmen or senators of the future, to think for one group or race of people, but would consider matters in the light which would effect all said that he intended to vote against the people, and especially all American citizens for good." He further every militant who will attempt to get into office by inciting race prejudice. "Such men, said the doctor, should be kept at home with their wives where they will be under good influence and not be sent to Congress, etc." Another thing he said and took time to emphasize it was that when the Negro boys come home from France they will be hungry for the things at home, their minds have been disciplined and those who preach will have to preach as never before, for those tutored minds that had learned to think and reason will demand of those who address them that they say something when they speak. Thus, he emphasized the importance of the National Baptist Seminary, which should be the equal of any Seminary in all the world; such an institution the white Baptists of the South desire to help found and maintain. The address was inspiring to all who heard it, both white and colored. At the conclusion of his remarks, he inquired again if the sub-committee was ready to report. Upon being told that they were not, many called for Dr. Mullins, president of the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary to address the assembly. Dr Mullins kindly consented and began by saying that he was always ready and glad to have an opportunity to speak. He spoke of the army Y. M. C. A., commending the splendid work it has done and is doing among the soldiers, saying, among other things, that it was the only practical thing to be done under the circumstances to use them as an agent to help keep up the morale of the soldiers over the seas and in the tropics, especially in the regulations which disaffect the employment and use of camp pastors, for the army Y. M. C. A. did a work that could not and would not have been done by pastors of the various denominations. However, he said the Baptists had maintained camp pastors at a number of the camps, an it had been his pleasure, yea he is to work with some of the colore camp pastors. He had special men (Continued on page 5.) DEMOBILIZING S. A. T. C. Various orders have reached Nashville in the past ten days relative to demobilization of the student army training corps at Meharry Medical College and Fisk University. Government inspectors and officials have been in the city looking towards this end. Each day orders have been expected whereby actual demobilization would begin. It was thought that on Monday morning at the two schools approximately six hundred would be mustered out or the service, but it is said that another order had come from Washington that postponed this action. At any rate, it seems to be thoroughly established that the government expects before the first of the new year to turn back to the president and faculty of the schools their educational institution so that they will be "as they were." Where the commissioned officers now here as instructors and who were detailed here on special duty, some teaching from their regiments, will go with this general order back into civil affairs. The commissioned officers, however, feel that they will receive their dis charge right here in the city. Out at Meharry there are five commissioned officers, viz., Lieuts. Cooper Boyd, Marshall, Lane and Calhoun while at Fisk there are several. Some of these came from the regular army, some from the artillery and some from the national army, while some came direct from the officers' training camp. These commissioned officers have already endearbed themselves to the student-body of the city, and if they are mustered out, no doubt their presence here will be greatly missed, but it is hosed that the government will transfer them to some other point and that they will be able to lend their military advice to the schools. Just where the boys will go has not been determined. Some of the students will immediately re-enter their respective institutions, while others will likely go away for the remainder of the year and return next scholastic term. DEATH OF CHARLES FERGUSON. Private Charlie Ferguson of this city is the fourth Nashville citizen to pay the supreme sacrifice somewhere in France. Notice of his death was received last week and cast a shadow of gloom over his score of friends in the city. Private Ferguson was in camp at Camp Taylor near Louisville, and was transferred to several other camps before being sent for overseas duties. He was a graduate of Fish University and of the Medical Department of Meharyan and was well known in social circles. He was the son of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Ferguson, formerly of Texas. His father died some years ago. He was well known throughout the state of Texas as one of the political leaders who was in power during the days of the late Norris Wright Cuney. He was Collector of Customs at San Antonio, but prior to that time had held many prominent positions, including a burial park of the courts of Fort Fort County. After the death of Charlie Ferguson, Sr., the mother with the two sons moved back to Nashville their former home, where Charlie Ferguson, Jr., finished his educational career during which time Henry Ferguson passed into the great beyond. In the death of Charles Ferguson and in the hanging up of the fourth cold star for Nashville all the city mourns because of the nobility and heroism with which each of the colliant sons have met death and paid the supreme sacrifice. UNITED STATES FOOD ADMINIS FACTORY Washington, D. C. Just before Mr. Hoover boarded his ship for Europe on his present trip he made the following statement: "There is a great problem in the situation of the enemy people—about 90,000,000. This problem is not one of going to their relief. It is a problem of relaxing the watertight blockade, which continues through the armistice, sufficiently so that they may secure for themselves the bare necessities that will give stable government. Unless anarchy can be put down and stability of government can be obtained in these enemy States there will be nobody to make peace with, and nobody to pay the bill to France and Belgium for the fearful destruction that has been done. "I would certainly approach this problem with mixed feelings, having been long a witness to the robbery of food from women and children, and the destruction of millions of tons of food at sea and to the misery under which the millions amongst the big and little Allies have suffered under the German yoke. Justice requires that Government be established able to make amends for wrongs done, and it cannot be accomplished through spread of anarchy. Famine is the mother of anarchy." "I am going to Europe to discuss the further food measures that must be organized as a result of the cessation of hostilities. The food problem in Europe today is one of extreme complexity. Of their 420,000,000 practically only three areas—South Russia, Hungary and Denmark—comprising say 40,000,000, have sufficient food supplies to last until next harvest without imports. Some must have immediate relief. "We have a surplus of some 18,000,000 to 20,000,000 tons of food if we are economical, so that the situation can be handled if this and the other smaller surpluses in the world can be transported. WAVING FLAG MEMORIAL SERVICES FOR HEROES SUPREME SACRIFICE MADE LIEUT. HENRY ALVIN CAMERON AND CORP. OVERTON CARTER —ST. ANDREW'S AND EAST STAR LODGE HONOR THEM. Memorial services for two of the Nashville heroes who made the supreme sacrifice in the United States. Government's fight for world democracy were held last Sunday at two different places. Nashville turned out to participate in and honor to the fallen heroes. The services for Lieutenant Alvin H. Cameron, who was killed in the battle of Agouness Forest, October 30, 1918, were held at St. Andrew's Presbyterian Church at 3 p.m. The audience present attested the popularity of Lieut. Cameron, who was not only a substantial citizen, but one who had been in the educational work in the city for a number of years. The news of the death of Lieut. Cameron created much sorrow throughout the city, as he was loved by hundreds of students who had sat at his feet during the years of his teaching in the high school. The program Sunday afternoon was begun by a funeral march, then a processional. This was followed by creed and prayer, followed by a poem read by Dr. Brumfield, after which a solo was sung by Mr. A. G. Price. Rev. Spencer Jackson, the minister, presided throughout the evening, while Mrs. Willa H. Faulkner was the organist. After the choir sang "Saved by Grace," the opening remarks were made by Mrs. Lula Crosthwaite, after which the choir sang "Keep the Home Fires Burning." Dr. Jasper Tappan Philips read an original poem. Prof. John W. Work sang a song. There was a choir then offered from Pearl High School and offered from Dr. Crosthwaite Remarks by Mr. Starnes, Dr. Ellington and Dr. McKenzie. The church was profusely decorated with flowers that were presented by a number of friends. The memorial services for Corporal Overton Carter were held under the auspices of the East Star Lodge A. F. and A. M., of which he was Past W. M. Notices of the services had been sent out by the lodge officers, and by three o'clock the hall was filled with those members and admirers. The lodge in after having assembled in their hall, while Mrs. Preston Taylor played the funeral march, then came the several announcements. This was followed by the choir from the Lea Avenue Christian Church which sang "The Star Spangled Banner" and which the congregation and lodges joined in the chorus. The chaplain led in prayer, then the lodges sang "In Thy Cleft." Rev. Preston Taylor, the Worshipal Master of the lodge, delivered the princelike speech of healing with the life of Corporal Overton Carter, with compliments as a young man. He spoke for twenty minutes, after which Mr. E. T. Brown read a eulogy filled with touching incidents. Mr. L. S. Gray representing the committee on resolutions read resolutions from the East Star Lodge. Dr. McKinzie, president of Fisk University, then delivered a short address, representing the university. The Knight Templars followed with their ritualistic ceremonies. Throughout the evening there were references made to the work of Corporal Overton Carter, recan and college but in the business world, and his raid elevation in the army. For closing, the lodge and the audience, led by the choir, sang "God be with you till we meet again." COLUMBIA2 Miss Susie Brown of A. and I.

MADELINE CARTER-HAWKINS, OF DALLAS, TEXAS IN RECITAL COLORED TROOPERS INVADE GER- MAN SOIL. Gallant 32 Division Plays Big Role in Advance on Metz—Taking "Pot Luck" in Freight Car "Pullmans" on War Front Without Complaint— Wounds Fall to Blot Out Native Sense of Humor—Determined to Keep Up With Procession. By Ralph W. Tyler. Accredited Representative of the Committee on Public Information. Somewhere in France, Nov. 10—in the battle raging today in the American advance toward Metz, the 22nd Division, one of the Colored combat divisions over here, played a big role. Not only was its black infantry and machine gun units up at the front—in the thickest of it, but its artillery, the 167 Brigade of field artillery was on the line, behaving like veterans, laying down a hurrage for the infantry was marvelously effective and they established a reputation which has been more than few among French, British or Americans, laying down a barrage that did not entrap, and fatally so their own met This has been a glorious day for the black soldiers. The fighting is still on, and I have just received the invitation that the casualty toll may be heavy depressingly so for Metz and the sector around about it, is strongly fortified by the Germans and resistance determined. Metz is considered by experts to be the strongest fortified city in the world, almost if not so, as impregnable as the fortifications of the Dardanelles. But the Americans are hammering away at it, and only the snging of the armistice terms by the Germans, by eleven o'clock tomorrow will save Metz from falling. Even as it is, colored soldiers are now on German soil. The husky invaders include the colored soldiers of the 92nd Division, embracing the "Buffaloes" or 367th, the 365th and 366th regiments of Infantry and the 167th Brigade of Field Artillery, composed of the 349th, 350th and 351st regiment and the 317th Trench Morar Battery, and all are conducting themselves with a fortitude and valor that has won for them high praise from their commanding officers every time they have been put to any test. FREIGHT CARS LOOK LIKE "PULL MAN PARLOR COACHES" ON WAR FRONT Somewhere in France—To many of our people back in the States who saw our boys embark on fine American railroad coaches and Pullman sleepers to cover the first lap of their hoped for pilgrimage to Berlin, the coaches they must ride in over here would arouse a mild protest. I stood at the station at Vierzon, one of France's many quaint old towns, recently, and saw a long train of freight cars roll in, enroute to some point further distant. In these cars, with but a limited number of boxes to sit upon and just the floor to stand upon, were crowded some one thousand of our own coloré soldiers from "The States." But a job her crowd never never drove through Ameri can cities in Pullman sleepers and diners than these one thousand colored troopers. They accepted passage on these rude box freight cars cheerfully, for they knew they were now in war, and palace care, downy coaches and the usual American railroad conveniences were neither available nor desirable. The point I wish to convey to the people back home is that did they but know how cheerfully—even eagerly, our boys over here accept war time conveniences, they would not worry quite so much about how the boys are faring. They are being wholesomely and plenteously fed; they are warmly clothed; they are cheerful and uncomplaining, they know this is war and for that reason know exactly what they must expect. To a soldier, who must at times sleep with but the canopy of heaven as a covering, and the earth as a mattress, a box freight car that shields him from the rain and wind is a real luxury, and he accepts it as such. There need not be any worry back home as to the maintenance of our colored cars over here. They have some substantial fare the white soldiers receive, and the white soldiers travel to point to point in the same box freight cars. Aords means of passage for colored cars. In short, when it comes to maintenance and equipment, and consideration for the comfort of the American soldier, to use a trite saying—"the folks are as good as the people." There is absolutely no discrimination, and the cheerfulness of these one thousand boys whose freight cars became in imagination, Pullman palace cars, was the proof to me that the colored boys in the ranks are getting a fifty-fifty break. WOUNDS FAIL TO BLOT OUT NATI VIVE SENSE OF HUMOR Two more stories have come to me to prove that our colored soldiers preserve and radiate their humor even where shells and shrapnel fly thickest. A colored soldier slightly wounded in the Argonne fighting—and let me assure my readers there was "some" fighting there.—Sat down beside the road to wait for a chance to ride to the field hospital. A comrade hastening forward to his place in the line, and axious for the latest news of the progressing battle, he asked the wounded brother if he had been in the fight; did he know all about it, and how were things going at the front. "I sure was glad to hear that," he replied. "Well, what's happened to them? quickly asked the troopen on his way to the front. "Well, it was this way," replied the wounded fellow. "I was climbing over some barbed wire trench" to get to them dn boches, and they shot me; that's what I know about it." A company water cart was following the advancing troops when a German shell burst in the ditch almost beside the cart. The horse on the shell side was killed, and the driver was wounded in the head. While the blood ran freely from his wound down his face, the driver took one look at the wreckage, then started stumbling back along the road. A white lieutenant who had seen it all stopped the driver of the cart and said: Before he could finish his sentence, the wounded driver with the blood flowing in rivulets down his face, said: "Dressing station hell; I'm looking for another horse to hitch to that car to take the place of the one that shell put out of commission." That was a bit of nerve, grim humor, and evidence of fidelity to duty. A mere wound in the head could not stop this driver from keeping up with the troops with a needed supply of water. --- Washington, D. C., Dec. 2. By R. W. Thompson. MRS. MARY CHURCH TERRELL TAKES UP WAR CAMP COM- MUNITY SERVICE. Mrs. Mary Church Terrell, former president of the National Association of Colored Women and the only colored women in the country to serve on a Board of Education, has been appointed to the position of Assistant in the Personnel Department of the War Camp Community Service, the headquarters of which is located at Madison Avenue, New York City.

Any medicine that does what Lung-Vita did for me is deserving of praise," says Mrs. Laura Wilson of 250 Thirty-third avenue, north, Nashville, Tenn. "Several years ago I had measles and then an attack of pneumonia. I came mighty near dying but managed to pull through but was left with a severe cough. I used all kinds of medicine, both patent and that prescribed by a physician, but didn't get a bit better. I continued in this way and my doctor finally told me to sleep out of doors. About this time Lung-Vita was recommended to me and I took it. Now I am entirely well. My lungs do not pain me and I have gained twenty-five pounds in weight.

It is stated here that the largest bulk of financial work ever reported resulted in the convention that held its sessions at the Mt. Rose Baptist Church on Crowds Street. The convention opened with an excellent program. The mastery address of Rev. L. L. Campbell, D. D., who has presided over the body for a number of years dealt practically upon every phase of the racial achievements and developments. He was a patriotic utterance. He paid high tribute to the work of the mayor and citizen Wednesday night at the magnificent opening, his Honor, the Mayor, and a number of distinguished white citizens addressed the audience. The report of the various boards, together with the Board of Directors, entertained the convention at its various sessions and showed the constructive ideas prevailing throughout the state of Texas under the leadmost thoroughly organized state convention among Baptists in the United States.

Wolfe, president of the Texas white Baptist Convention and chairman of the Democratic Executive Committee, who when he had finished a masterly address gave five hundred dollars towards religious education in the state. He was followed by Dr. J. B. Tidwell, of Baylor University, who spoke for nearly an hour on the advantages of religious educational training. Then Dr. O. Halley of the Southern University with number of others was introduced. It was announced during the sessions on Friday that the white Baptist ministers would throw open the doors of their churches Sunday and that they desired that the convention send them speakers for the morning hour, and that Dr. Truitt's church, the most magnificent church edifice in Dallas, would be the scene of the mammoth mass meeting on Sunday afternoon, where one hundred fifty select voices under the national chorister, would be heard singing the national jubilee songs as prepared and sent out at the Baptist Publishing Board at Nashville. The convention went on record as pledging continued support to the great Theological and Training Seminary which was purchased by the corporation of dollars and cated at Nashville.

There has been a general demand by Negro organizations and the Negro press that the race have a representative at the Peace Table in Versailles. But the Independent has taken no part in the discussion or demands. First for the reason that it did not agree with the concensus of opinion as expressed. And, second, it did not take very kindly to the discussion of the personnel of the envoys until the President had acted. The Independent felt that the President ought to be left unembarrassed and in a position where he could select the best fitted men for the world mission, without regard to race or creed. Now that the President has acted and made up his commission the Independent, in common with the press of the country, feels at liberty to discuss in the public forum both the character and personnel of the Peace Commission. First, we shall consider the attitude of the race as expressed by its accredited organizations and press. The Negro is a part and parcel of the American people—America constitutes a nation, and the Negro is a composite part of the national unit, and his interest could not be considered at the Peace Table separate from the other parts of the unit. Questions to be considered at the Peace Table are of world-wide importance—international, involving the peace of the world and not national, involving harmony and progress of a nation. Therefore, whether the Peace Commission is made up of white men or black men, all integral parts of the nation will be represented at the Peace Table. Questions affecting the Negro's interest at home cannot be considered around the Peace Table in Versailles. These questions are domestic and must be solved at home among ourselves. Each nation with a cause at the Peace Table is a world citizen engaged in works out of world problems in the same sense that each individual citizen is engaged at home in working out individual or citizenship problems; and for the race to demand recognition at the Peace Table on the ground or color or creed, is to defeat the very purpose for which it works, a share of the world's democracy. We are not to draw the color line or withdraw ourselves from the national unit; but we must stand upon the broad ground of American citizenship, forgetting that we are Negroes, and demanding as Americans, representation on the commission, or in an advisory capacity in common with other elements constituting the national unit. As such our demand is both feasible and tenable and the President should have given us such recognition as our worth, loyalty and patriotism war ranted. If, in his honest judgment, no Negro in America possessed the qualities necessary for a place on the Commission, he could have appointed from among the many Negro journalists and educators some member or member of the race to be members of his advisory council, just as he selected eminent educators from Harvard, Columbia, Yale, Michigan State Normal and the University of Winconsin. The Negro race possesses educators as able—profound in learning and as deep in research as the white men selected as members of his advisory council. The President was not equal to the occasion; he fell short of his ideal as a statesman; for not a single man appointed on the commission rises above the mediocre compared with the height of statesmanship which the white man has achieved. They must be considered among contemporary statesmen as men of ordinary ability and it would have been an easy matter for the President to have found a Negro man in this country as able in the school of statecraft as any white member of his council. The race cannot reach its highest usefulness or grow into the full enjoyment of its rights as citizens so long as it is satisfied with demands Demands never accomplish anything unless they are backed up by results—by fruits and constructive labor. Editorials demanding representation at the Peace Table will avail but little, so long as the Negro is not an organized, active and definite political integral of the nation. Unless na organizes and votes definitely and permanently for principles and measures, and not men and office, demands will avail him nothing. He is not going to gain anything because he is black, and he is not losing anything because he is black, but he is losing out in everything because he is not acting a man. He is not arming himself permanently with the qualifications of a citizen. Education, property and religion will help largely in the solution of our problems, but if these principles do not inspire us to qualify civilly and politically to enjoy civil and political rights, our share in the world's democracy will be the same thing after the war that it is today—a nonentity. Twelve million people would have had a representative at the Peace Table if they meant anything in the political equation of the nation, and representation would not have been based upon race, color or previous condition of servitude, but upon citizenship. Yes, upon the fact that we represent one-eighth of the voting strength of the Republic. So let us cease to demand things because we are black, and base our demands upon merit and worth as citizens, upon our contribution not only to the moral, intellectual and physical worth of the nation, but our contribution to its civic, social and political life. Let us organize ourselves in the political units for the purpose of voting to ours, our rights under the law. Let us, like white men, rise up and vote any man out of office who discriminates or proscribes against us; then and not till then, will we be represented at a Peace Table, or else where, where the laws are made and where the rulers are selected.—AtAnta Independent. --- NEGRO AND SHIPYARD STRIKE. In the past, whenever white men have organized or corralled Negro men to unite on a great strike or any protest, it has been for the purpose of removing the possibility of the Negroes' becoming strike breakers, thus defeating the ends for which the white leaders were contending. Invariably, also, when normal conditions have been restored, by arbitration or what not, and the men have returned to the places, the Negro worker has found to his credit little or no benefit. This result has been uniform. If Unionism really meant what the name implies, a union of the interests and causes of all working men to improve working conditions, to increase wages, to share the profits of their labor, and thus to make comfortable living for their families; then Unionism for the Negroes with the whites would be a good thing. The white unionist, however, has never had any sincere interest in the welfare and lot of the Negro laborer. He has affiliated with him and organized him for the sole purpose of exploiting him. He has done all the directing and planning of the strikes in which the Negro has joined, and has held his counsels apart from the Negroes. On the other hand, he looks upon the Negro skilled worker as his serious competitor, and regards him as an institution to be restricted and outlawed, because it joopardizes his own strength as a trader for better working conditions and wages. Wherever Negro strike breakers and "scabs" have gone in with capital, under protection, to take the places of white strikers, the white union men have lost ground and strength. The American Federation of Labor has come to recognize and reckon with the Negro laborer on this score. Negroes have been justified in becoming strike breakers because of the insincerity and unfairness of white unions. We hope to see them continue to deal with white unionism so as to rebuke it for its selfishness, its discriminations and its prejudices. White workingmen have no interest in Negro workingmen, and they "hog" everything in the way of good positions and favorable conditions, when Negro labor cannot bid of its own strength. There has been rank discrimination on the mere ground of color at all the war production plants about Savannah, even if less at the Foundation than elsewhere. The presence of Negroes earning high wages has been resented there as elsewhere, and the evidence of it shows itself in the feeling of antagonism between the white and black workers. White workers at the shipyards do not want Negroes of any grade to get equal wages with themselves. Every Negro and every white man at the yards knows this. We believe a great many of the Negroes who have quit know that they are to derive little or no benefit from striking. They likewise believe that after the white unionists have secured what they want, they will turn their energies agile to reacting and degrading Negro labor. They have been doing it before they why should they change now? We cannot help teeling that it would be a good thing for the cause of justice and fairness and sincere unionism if Negroes refused to join this strike, except on definite terms of fair play and equal consideration in the future. And if Negro leaders, representing Negro workers, are refused these demands they should deal directly with the employing corporations as may seem best to do. Negro labor has had no market in which to bid until the war came on. Discrimination has kept him out. Unionism has prevented him from bargaining. And the only way to bring Unionism to its senses is to buck it by defeating its selfish ends. Labor has no particularly clean record. It has struck at critical and most inopportune times for the good of the nation. It has invaded personal and property rights at times, and has sometimes brought its own deserved possibilities into reproach and question. Above all things, labor should be sympathetic with all workingmen and rigidly fair to all men. Labor claims to proceed upon this lofty his humanitarian schedule. We all know, however, that their program of betterment does not include the Negro laborer, skilled or unskilled, and we adjure the Negroes to trade with the whites in these strikes on definite and well-understood terms for the future. Up to the time of going to press there has been no adjustment of the differences between the strikers and the employing company. Meantime, the plant is practically idle, thousands of unemployed are on the streets and a great economic loss is being sustained. This community owes it to the ship building company to protect, with its police power, the life and limb of men who desire to work at the plant as an "open shop;" and we believe there are a great many men who do not know why they are striking and who would like to return to work, and would do so under proper guarantees and unrestricted opportunity in all lines of skilled occupation at the big plant. These men should have the opportunity to do so. There is no doubt of the necessity and value of organized labor, if only it operated justly and fairly toward all men—to Negroes who must largely furnish the workers of the world. As it operates, however, toward the hundreds of thousands of Negro artisans and unskilled laborers in Ameri-we find very little to say in its favor—Savannah (Ga.) Tribune. NEGRO CITIZENSHIP. Somebody has suggested that the Republicans in Congress mean to get some courage and vim in them from the example the Democratic have set for them. The Negro has been asked to take part in the war as an American citizen and offer up his all for his country's good, and the manner in which he has responded and done his part, makes indisputably the splendid way in which he has an American citizen, but no man or woman is indisputably an American, whose rights are in any manner curtailed or abridged, and no one who knows the first principles of right and wrong can deny that so flagrantly are the Negro's rights and privileges curtailed and abridged as an American citizen, that he is not able to protect the commonest rights vouchsafed him. These abuses are the practices of the Democratic party, whose underlying principle is the utterance of Chief Justice Taney that a Negro has no rights which a white man is bound to respect, and now that the Republican party has been returned to power, greatly aided by the Negro's vote, whenever the Negro was empowered to vote, he looks to the Republican Congress to once more put on sufficient courage and bravery to make the Negro once for all truly and indiscriminately an equal citizen with any other person, who claims citizenship in this country. Right in this most awful time of war, when Negro men marched up boldly and unflinchingly and gave up their all to so die for the good of their country, certain men, high in position, in the Democratic party, refuse of recognize the simplest rights of the Negro, and ruthlessly practiced all sorts of discriminations and unkind treatment toward them. When Congress meets with a Republican majority, in both houses, once more, if we cannot get that majority to do the right and proper thing by us, then we have no possible hope of ever getting our rights in this country until we find some other means to enforce it.—Newport News (Va.) Star. YES, GUESS THIS EXPLAINS IT. Charles H. Henry, of Spartanburg, S. C., writes the New York World that the reason the Democrats lost the recent election was because the pro-Germans voted the Republican ticket. Yes, this explains why Iowa, where one person in four bought Liberty bonds, went heavily Republican, while South Carolina, where one person in twenty bought bonds, went Democratic; why South Carolina, which decorated the very tall end of the procession in the matter of volunteer enlistments in this war, sent a solid Democratic delegation to Congress, while Indiana, which topped the whole list of states in the matter of volunteer war enlistments in proportion to population, sent a solid Republican delegation. A South Carolina lecture on loyalty to the flag and the union is always interesting, even if not convincing.-The National Republican. MRS. MAGDALEEN CARTER-HAW- KINS COMING. Rumor has it for some time that Mrs. Magda-ehne Carter-Hawkins formerly of this city, but now of Dallas, Texas, would be in Nashville to spend the holidays. Rev. Henry A. Boyd, who has just returned from Texas, where he saw Dr. and Mrs. Hawkins, confirmed the statement, while Mrs. Burroughs of the Hubbard Hospital Club and Dr. Josie Wells, the superintendent of the Hubbard Hospital, made further confirmation the first of the week and added that a testimonial for the benefit of the hospital would be given during her stay, and that she would delight Nashville's audience by appearing on the program as the star of the eve-Magdalene Carter'; as she was known throughout the city, has been doing special concert work through Texas and Louisiana and to city to city after a tour, during which she touched such points as Marshall, Texas; Shreveport, La., Mansfield, Alexandria and New Orleans, La.; Mobile, Montgomery and Birningham, Ala. It is expected that she will be the guest of Mr. and Mrs. Lowe in South Nashville during her stay. THE STORK CAME. The store visited the home of Mr. and Mrs. Jos. H. Boyd and left a bouncing 8-pound boy. Both mother and baby are doing fine. CITY ITEMS. Mrs. Alma Wells Givens of Norfolk, Va., who is in the city visiting her mother, Dr. Josie Wells, was the honoree at the reception Sunday afternoon at the Hubbard Hospital. About a hundred of her Nashville friends and a number of visitors called during the evening. She was presented by Dr. Wells to each of them. A NEW RECORD IN INSURANCE Special to the Globe.

He has done splendid service while in France. He wishes the prayers and best wishes of his Friends. Mrs. Andrew Howse-Thomas had a delightful visit of several days with Mrs. Alex Douglas of Fankla, Ky. During her stay she was the recipient of several parties and auto outings. She returned to the city feeling fine HONORED GUEST. Mr. Buff Hazen of Knoxville, Tenn. who is in the city in the interest of the Grand Jury Court *spent Sunday with Mrs. Cornelia Price-Ewing, 1014 11th Ave., N. Information reached Nashville that Mrs. J. Hamilton Francis, the wife of Dr. Francis of Norfolk, Virginia, recently from a visit in portions of Tennessee, but who has been ill since her return, is convalescing. * * * Nashville is thronged with visitors and every indication points to an increase in this number until after the holiday season. Every year at the approach of the Yulelide Nashville has proven a mecca for visitors and for the society-loving element, because of its many functions put on at that particular time; yet hundreds of Nashville people seem to be going to other places to spend the holidays. From what can be learned some of the distinguished representatives of the race from every section of the country will be in Nashville at an early date. SERGT. ROSE IN TOWN. Sergt. W. P. Rose has just returned to the city after having been honorably discharged from the service in the officers' training camp at Camp Pike, Ark. Sergt. Rose went with the first candidates to the officers' training camp at Fort Des Moines, where he remained four months. He was appointed supply sergeant and was located at Fort Des Moines and was afterwards transferred to the officers' training camp at Little Rock. His rapid rise and splendid service rendered during his enlistment placed him in high esteem with the officers and men. "I have come home to take my place and help fill the gap caused by so many of our boys going to the army and such a number paying the supreme sacrifice in helping to defend our country in its fight for world's democracy. Nashville is a dear place to me. I have gained much from the army. I feel I shall be a better man in my church, my government up my sleeves and get to work anew. I was ready to go, was willing to go, but unfortunate for me, I was kept on this side for special work and now that my country no longer needs me to defend her cause and her honor. I turn back to the channels in peace to take my place by the side of the artilliers who labor and toil." These are remarks of Sergt. Rose to a reporter.

He was killed in action on October 6th, while leading his squad in a gallant charge against the Huns. He fell with his face to the enemy. This is the third member of Company G that is reported to have made the supreme sacrifice up to date. Rev. Taylor, the pastor of the church, announced that memorial services will be held at his church at an early date for Sergt. Jordan. DOES PEACE MEAN DEMOCRACY AND PROTECTION FOR BLACK NAMERICA, WHO GAVE HER SONS? The world war is over, so far as guns and ammunition go, but the war for the freedom of mankind has just begun. Let every nation on the globe get together for the bettermement of all. Let us not have any malice toward Germany or any of her entente. They were wrong, and they now see it. They have surrendered all to our side and are now begging for help. We can make them better people by extending Christian sympathy to those who were not responsible for this bloody conflict. Don't let this world's war bring on a hardship to those who fought for the freedom of all, as the black man fought for the preservation of this Nation and military in the war of 1776, 1918, 1881, 1918 and after wars of enslavement, sold out, outraged, seduced, lynched, burned, ostracised, Jim Crowed, and up to this day the race is not recognized by white America. On the other hand all foreigners that come to the American shores are received with open arms and given the best opportunities to earn a livelihood. They are not compelled to spend money to secure their rights at law, as does the black man, but all citizenship rights are bestowed upon him without the slightest protest. The Southern white man rebelled against the union of state and waged one of the bloodiest conflicts ever known in history up to that time, yet after all of their outrages they were allowed to become citizens they were retained their property, and yet the white man fought in this country. Southern abolished brought peace to all in this country is now bearing the all in the insults of this same fellow. The idea of a man who rebelled against his country being allowed to browbeat and run over the men and their children who put them down! We hope this will not be the case of those who went overseas and offered their lives for freedom. All should stand on a level, and we predict that everybody is going to stand up for their rights the South notwithstanding. We never offered to kill Jeff Davis nor any of his sympathizers. What are they doing? Everything against a loyal North and West and the black race We are glad the President said? Peace has come. Now let us watch it see it. It not more than fair but a black man the peace commission to be named He has earned it, and there are thousands who are competent. We know France and England would not object but would gladly welcome a colored man on the commission. What will Democratic America do?—Nich Chiles, Editor. VETERAN COLORED SOLDIER of Pershing's Army Ordered to Jim Crow Car—White People En Masse Resent Conductor's Insult—Colored Protested Against Cowardly Attack 一 In a passenger coach of a Southern train the other day a friend of The Drifter espied a veteran of Pershing's army. Upon an empty sleeve were two six months' foreign service stripes and a wound chevron, and on his breast a medal of honor. Ordinarily it would seem as if one who had sacrificed as much for his country and Democracy would be certain of all courtesy and friendliness from every fellow-citizen he met. But as soon as there were any train cars to him and touching his worn uniform said, "You're in the wrong coach. You belong in the jim crow car. Get out of here." The Negro looked him steadily in his eyes. "I'll stay right here," he said firmly.

Whereupon he called for a burley brakeman and they were about to throw this one-armed veteran out of the car when the gorge of the Southern men who witnessed this humiliating soone rose, the train hands were ordered to desist, and Pershing's veteran companion in位数 was a man in a carload of whites. "Oh, very well," said the conductor just before he slammed the door. "that's just like you white folks; first you make the laws and then you break them." There are a good many laws that ought to be broken nowadays, the Drifter thinks, which affect the colored people. After the 150,000 colored men now in France return from their glorious share in Pershing's factory, shall we continue to jimmy the police and mind them that though they may be good enough to fight for Uncle Sam they are still to be despised at home!"—McDowell Keys, Keystone, W. Va COLORED SOLDIER AS SEEN BY A PARIS JOURNAL. (Transmitted to the Argue by Sergt. Major Charles H. Bailley). Major Charles H. Bailey.) A peaceful town, far from the front. A beautiful June day full of the perfume of roses. Resplendent Summer freely bursting into bloom, hinting to human plants, frosts and agitations. Scene of the town: A boy of ten years, head like an urchin of the year one, runs through the streets crying, "The Americans are coming to B——, the inhabitants are invited to greet them." "The Americans!" For months they had been discussed, they had been expected and there was great curiosity, groups of people go down to the public square of the town where they see upon the white street the first ranks of the Allied soldiers. But, what a surprise—they are black soldiers. Black soldiers! Great astonishment, a little fear. The rural population, not well informed, knows well the Negroes of Africa, but that they are not the country of the classical type characterized by the cold, smooth, white face, that from America could come this dark troop none could believe his own eyes. A deep sympathy is created for these men, which yesterday was not even surmised. Very quickly it is seen that they not only have nothing of the savage in them, but on the other hand that one could not find a soldier more faultless in his bearing, and in his manners more aflable and more delicate than these children of the sun, whose ancestors dreamed under the wonderful night along the river. We admire their forms, handsome, vigorous and athletic, their intelligent and loyal faces with their large gleaming eyes, at times dreary and with a bit of sadness in them. Far removed is the time when the inauspicious influence upon the digestive organs of the lady was feared. Now one honors himself to have them at his table. He spends hours in long talks with them, with a great supplication honaries and in many conversation. The white mothers weep to see the protographs of the black mothers and display the portraits of their soldier sons. The finances of our polis become interested in the finances across the sea, in their dress, in their headaddress, and in everything which makes owman resemble woman in every clime. Late at night, the workers of the district hear arise through the peaceful night the melancholy voices which call up to the memory off the exile his distant country. In the lanes along the flowery hedges, more than one blond head moves thoughtfully beides a curly head, while the setting sun makes blue the neighboring hills and gently the song of night is awkoned. Soldier friends, our hearts, our wishes go with you. That they deny my may be merciful to you. That the bulk of the enemy may spare you. And if any of you should never see your native home again, may the soil or France give you sweet repose. Soldiers who arrived among us one clear June day, redolent with the scent of roses, you will forever live in our hearts. First Lieut. David A. Lane, Jr., Inf., having reported for duty with the Meharry Unit is detailed as Adlutant. ```markdown ``` Send to the Patriotic Publishing Co., 253 1-2 Washington St. Portland, Oregon, and get that NEW WEB PICUER "True Sens of Freedom" showing the Boys going "Oven the top" and hang it in your window where "The Southern Aristocrat" can see it, make it see GREEN, AGENTS coin money selling this picture.

PACE, Mgr. 090112 New York On last Sunday evening at 3 o'clock the student body of Fisk, Roger Williams, State Normal and Meharry met at the Bijou theatre and many of the citizens of the city met and heard able addresses, the most favorable of which was the address delivered by Mr. John C. Wright, a former teacher of Tuskegee, who had just returned from France where he had been engaged in war work in the Y. M. C. A. capacity for more than eight months. Dr. J. F. Lane of Lane College was the first seaker who in turn introduced the state chairman for the colored war work of the state of Tennessee, who in turn introduced Prof. Wright. His address was as clear and chaste as any one would want to hear and that vast audience was held at attention for nearly two hours listening to the many trials experienced by the speaker and Dr. John Hope of Morehouse college, at Atlanta, Ga. He made an everlasting impression on his audience as an educator, a scholar and a big brother. All believe he told the thing as it was really carried on in France. We hope we will be able to hear more from this great man. Meharry band took its place on the rostrum and was heard several times during the program. Meharry will do her part in giving finance to the war work campaign. Since the last time we told of the happenings in and about dear old Meharry we had several things to happen. Last Sunday our first monthly sermon was delivered by the venerable Dr. R. H. Boyd, Secretary of the National Baptist Publishing Board of Nashville, Tenn., who has been our annual speaker for many years one whom the students always delight to hear. He spoke at the eleven o'clock hour from the subject: "There shall be wars and rumors of wars, but fear ye not," or "Effect of War on Religion." in fact the speaker made it clear to his audience that he had deduced the subject to mean "The Signs of the Times." For more than an hour he held the stalwart youths and men who knew of his works during his lifetime at wrap attention as he pointed to them the impressions religion has had and would have upon their country, their lives, their practice, etc. The first sermon this session was a complete success and a favorable impression was made upon the entire student body by the speaker. We hope he will come to us again soon. Our next monthly sermon will be delivered by our Rev. W. S. Ellington. --- The National War. Work Y. M. C. A. Branch has sent to us a real live Y. M. C. A.

Parrish of Louisville, Ky., who served in that capacity for seven months, and in one of their meetings he preached from a high platform and after he had preached Dr. Parrish extended an invitation to the colored men which invited them to or nine hundred, to accept Christ, so many responded that he could not count His address was also inspiring. The committee still not being ready to report, Dr. Cox, (white) was called on, who delivered a short but fine address, at the conclusion of which the committee filed in and reported that they had reached an agreement and had adopted the following as pre-requisites to peace and ultimate reunion. In accordance with the address of Dr. John H. Frank, we adopt the following as prerequisites to peace and organic re-union: The charter at Washington must be annulled, abrogated, the lawsuits at Chicago and Nashville must be dismissed; irregularity in accepting members into Baptist churches of the incorporated convention from the churches of the unincorporated convention without letters, because their affiliation, must be discontinued; unprovened; gospel ministers are to be barred; the courtesies due them regardless of their conventional affiliation, etc." Whereupon a motion was made to adopt the report of the committee and a point of order was made and sustained that before such a motion could obtain, the report of the committee should be voted upon in separate meetings of the respective commissions, the Commissions retired to separate rooms and considered the document. Each filed back into the main auditorium and Dr. J. E. Woods, chairman of the unincorporated commission, announced to the chairman that his commission had unanimously adopted the report of the sub-committee. Dr. T. O. Fuller, chairman of the incorporated commission, announced that they had adopted the report, to which some of his brethren objected, and this precipitated a long discussion. They agreed in the committee rooms and their chairman reported the same, but it seems what the unincorporated commission unanimously adopted the report of the sub-committee, that the incorporated brethren not nervous and seemed to censure themselves for having accepted all that they did they would be willing to do, all that they had been asked to do, because they had not asked more and they could never agree from that hour among themselves on what they wanted or what they were willing to do in order to have peace and reunion. However, the incorporated brethren found only one way out of the peace and re-union, and that was by demanding that the unincorporated commission show legal authority to bind the Publishing Board to carry out the agreement to submit to conventional control. They were wise enough it seems to know what effect such an agreement would have on the laws against that board. Theorem, Dr. C. Morris, Dr. W. H. Moses, Dr. E. W. D. Isaac led their commission in an compromising debate to stand for that one item or there would be no peace. This was done over the pleadings of the venerable Dr. A. R. Griggs and the scholarly Dr. C. H. Parrish and many others of their following to adopt the report and leave the Publishing Board out. The unincorporated commission led by Dr. E. P. Jones, after having adopted the report of the commission in toto, insisted that it was unfair and unreasonable to ask them to jeopardize the interests of the National Baptist Publishing Board who are now defendants in an ouster, making them a party to this peace movement, when in fact the charter of Washington of the incorporated brethren, the lawsuits, the only barriers to peace, the Jones insisting that the National Baptist Publishing Board's property belongs to the Negro Baptists of America, thus they own it, and that the unincorporated National Baptist Control controls it as far as the law will allow and his convention desire to go. Dr. Phillips stated that the white commissioners had held a meeting and he presented a document to be considered as a basis of re-union. His document also in a provision which effected the status of the Publishing Board, a copy of which was given to each commission, who assembled forthwith in separate rooms to consider the same. In a few minutes Chairman Woods of the unincorporated commission announced that they had voted NO on the proposition submitted by Dr. Mullihan; Chairman Fuller announced that they had voted YES on those propositions, there being no agreement to the two commissions the report of the commission was taken up and discussed with a very late hour at night. Dr. Mullihan will the commission to allow him to retire in order to get a much needed rest. He was given a rising vote of thanks for his services. Dr. Allen Fort, pastor of the First Baptist Church WOMEN, GIRLS, FEED YOUR HUNGRY SGALP Thousands are Being Fed with the 1121 N. Whittier St. St. Louis, Mo. (white) was elected chairman. He kindly accepted and the discussion continued until it was finally discovered that the incorporated commission had repudiated the report of the sub-committee and would accept nothing as a basis of peace and reunion that left out a legal guarantee that the Publishing Board would be bound by their decision. A motion was offered to adjourn, and at eleven o'clock at night the joint commission adjourned sine die, Dr. E. C. Morris Friday morning and Dr. E. P. Jones calling his commissioners to meet Friday on the purpose of putting on a $25,000 campaign for the National Baptist Theological Seminary located at Nashville, Tenn. Assembling at 9:00 a.m. at the Mt. Olive Baptist Church, devotionals having been conducted by Rev. Wm. Johnson, the commissioners of the National Baptist Convention unincorporated, were elated, and using the language of Dr. C. H. Clark, "This to me is an inspiring and happy hour, my heart is filled with joy as I think of the splendid victory and achievements that have come to our denomination through divine guidance of the spirit." Expressions similar were made by Drs. J. F. Thomas of Chicago, Ill., Rev. O. R. Harper, President E. P. Jones, Rev. C. Caldwell, Dr. J. W. Hurse. The then adjourned to convene in the chapel at the Publishing House. The committee met at the Chapel, great host and throng elated and labilated in the fact that a rejection of the peace terms as well as union had been done by the brethren of the incorporated convention, and because nothing remains now but to promote every interest of the unincorporated convention. Dr. J. L. Harding, president of the Tennessee Convention, spoke enthusiastically. Hearty cheers followed his remarks. He pledged $3000 from Tennessee at Norfolk. The commissioners adjourned after the appointment of a committee to prepare their report for presentation to the convention which convenes at Norfolk, Virginia in September, 1919. DR. E. P. JONES DELIVERS ADDRESS I can not see that one of you could argue that our great Publishing Plant shall be placed under your management. Your records financially would show the wisdom of a contrary course. Your own choice auditor, Prof. M. M. Rodgers, who sits before me shows that you, your recording secretary and your treasurer affirmed on his honor that for ten years you kept no record of money paid out an dtook no receipt from those to whom money was paid, though you must have handled between $30,000 and $50,000. Had the Publishing House been under your management, that is the management of your Convention it would have been in bankruptk. Complete failure would have stared it in the face for you must admit that if you have not been capable of conducting the affairs of the small business of the National Baptist Convention and allowed it to run $10,000 or $15,000 in debt for operating expenses without approving or for mission, education or publication purposes, what could you have done with the mammoth interests of the publishing Plant? Unborn generations will hall with delight the fact that the laws of Tennessee made such an arrangement night survive days of prejudice and hate and remain a lasting monument to the advancement of the work of our great denomination. You have charged that the record shows that the property is in the name of Dr. Boyd and his family. I deny every line and every word possessing kinship to such a statement. You know and I know that the record plainly shows this property to be in the name of the trustees held in trust for the Baptists of the nation just as is the property of all Conventions immemorial, you know that it has throughout this nation, from time been the policy of the Baptists to do every matter of business through regular Boards. I point you to the deformation which I think I practice at the Memphis meeting last year not only upon ourselves but upon the brethren of the SOUTHERN Baptist Convention. I shall never forget the large sign on one of the buildings at Howe Institute when we came to Memphis which said National Baptist Theological and Training Seminary. You knew better and you knew that in the course of time has happened would occur and last week you told the nation that you had transferred the school from Memphis to Roger Williams University and before your dodgers can be read you deny that the school is here. You can no longer deceive nor mislead Baptists of America and it does appear that you are on the hill at Roger Williams University you would have looked just across and upon your vision would have fallen the magnificent view of the fine buildings of the National Theological and Training Seminary owned by the Negro Baptists of ONCE TRIED, ALWAYS USED If you are to be really successful, your work must be congenial. The Eloso System Provides a chance for you. It is my business to secure you the position you deserve Years of experience in this work should convince you of my efficiency and reliability. You might be mail or at College diplomas to graduates Agents wanted every where; write this day while you think of it. [Name] CAPTAIN CRAWFORD America and it does appear to me that you would have gone home and joined hand and heart in making this a monument to the Negro race and I pray that the day is not far distant when you will realize that drifting from pillow to post is not business and will not bring you support but will finally end in destruction and disrace. My brethren I beg you that you forget prejudice and hate and that in making the hair grow LONG, SOFT and GLOSSY.

One hundred or more of our boys and girls are employed at this Publishing Plant today and if you succeed in your attempts they must be turned out to seek employment and to depend upon other persons. I believe that as long as there beats any heart that stands for the dignity of Negro manhood and Negro womanhood this course shall be denied you and you will find it easier to dam the Niagara with an egg shell than to bring about the realization of this selfish and unkind aggrendization.

It is inspiring to see the strange and splendid things that the 12,000,000 colored Americans have been doing for the cause of liberty. We have, for example, contributed 200,000 their young men to the American army and of these nearly 1,000 have received commissions as officers of the line. A huge proportion of these troops wan toothed of these troops went abroad and have, as all the world knows, been in action against the Germans and proved themselves magnificent fighters." "One entire regiment was decorated for bravery and several individual soldiers have been cited for deeds of great valor. But the Negro Americans have been doing more than fighting abroad. The women of the race have organized Red Cross chapters, have equipped and sent over scores of nurses and have been highly useful in managing the recreational activities in the training camps. The colored race scored signal achievements in the Liberty loan and other campaigns, while 20,000 boys from Negro schools were employed in skilled trainees that form part of the army's work." The Negro Americans have proved their love of country and established their right to the recognition pledged by the constitution. They hoped that their rightful recognition be no longer denied them, especially in certain sections of the country. Billings Gazette. 150 JUBILEE SINGERS Dallas, Tex.

In a report to the war department after the American victory at San Juan Hill during the progress of the Spanish war, Colonel Theodore Roosevelt made use of the expression, "the colored troops fought moly." Indeed, history shows that this has been their constant and enviable record from the time they were given recognition in the United States, and reports from the European battlefields indicate that there have been no more galant defenders of the allied cause than the sons of Ham. One incident may be cited to show the troops hold the American flag and the principles it represents. It seems that during one of the advances on the western front in which a colored regiment was engaged, it became necessary to issue a "lie flat" order. The flagbearer failed to obey the instruction and was later asked why he had ignored the instruction, to which he responded: "I could not carry out an order to haul down the American flag in order to stand erect, proudly waving Old Glory, won for him an honorable mention, while his comment bids fair to become one of the famous slogans of the recent struggle. A recent issue of Leslie's contains an interesting article showing the part played by the American Negro in the war. It observes that the struggle has transformed the American Negro into the Negro American. NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY DECEMBER 18, 1918 The Negro volunteers were from the North, and principally city dwellers, and these; like the rural draft men, were soldiers of whom their commanders might well be proud. Their colonel said of them: Oh yes, they were green at the state; they are game as any men in this man's army. You take it from me, because I know they weren't afraid of the cold and the wet and the terrific labor when they worked last winter down near the coast of France on as mean a job of work as anybody ever tackled. They were up to thick waists in cold water part of the time—yes, most of the time they were—but not a one of them punched. And, believe me, there's no finching among them now that we are up against the Huns! You don't need the case of Johnson is proved by the gattitude of every man among them. If isn't hard to send them into danger—the hard part is to keep them from going into it on their accord." In conclusion Mr. Cobb stated when the war ends the word Negro will be another way of spelling American—Nashville Banner. The Colored Automobile School located at the Y. M. C. A. Building, corner Cedar street and Fourth avenue, has just obtained a State Charter and the following are the school's officers: D. D. Hawkins, president; Isa Coleman, secretary; The Board of Directors are: R. L. Mayfield, Fred T. Hill, P. J. Coleman, W. D. Hawkins and Isa Coleman. The secretary, when interviewed, stated: "We have already over thirty students enrolled, with a large number to enter the first of the year. Our pupils are from 17 to 45 years old, and as we teach by practical experience, and right on the cars and working parts, each student is certain to learn rapidly and we, as a school, are meeting with excellent success. Our evening classes are especially popular, and in this way a man can be employed during the day and attend school at night. We teach both repairing and driving of automobiles and our graduates receive a diploma when the course is completed and are assisted to positions. TABERNACLE BAPTIST CHURCH. Sunday school was opened promptly at 9:30 by Supt. H. Morgan, with a good representation of scholars at the lesson. The lesson was discussed very interestingly by the superintendent. Rev.

HERMITAGE The Evans Hill Baptist Church has just received a message from one of their soldiers in the person of Jesse Rucker, who is stationed at Camp Langley Field, Va. It reads as follows: Lansley Field, Va., Sept. 16, 1918. "We colored soldiers of this camp have organized a Soldiers Baptist Church. The idea of organizing the Soldiers Baptist Church: We felt that it would make us more loyal to our country and to God. A very interesting and inspiring young man from Louisiana brought this idea before the soldiers of this camp. He carried so much influence with the soldiers by the boldness of his profession in the Lord, the idea was accepted gladly. He saw that it would make us better prepared to win the war for our country, and the work of our soul. When we started, we had only three members, but now we are about forty strong; and we know that the Lord is with us because so many who had gone back in their sins have come and given their hands to our beloved pastor and said that they would turn back no more. We are asking all the churches to pray for us that we may continue to pray and hold up the name of Jesus. Rev. Joseph Camille, our beloved pastor, is from Louisiana, town of Waggonner Little Zion Baptist Church. He was drawn to Camp Pike, from Camp Pike to Camp Maude to Camp Maude to Langley Park, Va. He says, mother father and friend, pray that I may lead your son to the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. Bro. Homer Wilson, Louisville, Ky., Green Baptist Church; Bro.

No higher praise has been accorded the valiant Negro troops in the great world war than by Irvin Cobb, who lectures at the Ryman Auditorium on "My Recent Experiences on the Fighting Fronts of France and Flanders." In one of his recent lectures in telling of the noble part in the war of the Negro troops said Mr. Cobb: "I have vet to see fighters and quicker on the march smarter in discipline, more cheerful in waiting than four regiments of American Negroes." He referred particularly to Henry Johnson and his companion Roberts, who received the war cross and for each a special citation before the whole French army, with in addition a golden palm, slimifying extraordinarily valor across the red-and-green ribbon of Johnson's decoration. In one of his recent articles in the Saturday Evening 'Post' entitled "Young Black Joe." Mr. Cobb gives a stirring account of how biennially the Negro draft and volunteer regiments have rendered their patriotic service. Mr. Cobb first visited the sector where the draft colored troops were located husky soldiers from lower Georgia and from Georgia haps a sprinkling from Florida. Their commander, a West Pointer, was rightly extremely proud of his black soldiers, saying: "I'd take a chance on going anywhere with these black soldiers at my back. So would any of the rest of the officers. We haven't had any actual fighting experience yet—that'll come in a week or two when we relieve a French regiment that's just here in front of us holding the front lines—but we are not worrying about them when we get our baptism of fire." A little later came the chance to show fighting qualities, and superbly the Negro regiment responded. These men were not only magnificent fighters, but they bore themselves in a fine soldierly manner at other times. Mr. Cobb said: "I used to think that sitting down was the natural gait of the tidewater darky: but here, as anyone who looked might see, were soldiers who bore themselves as smartly, who were as snappy at the salute and as sharp set at the drill as any of their lighter-skinned fellow Americans in service any where."

Gilbert Taylor, pastor of Second Baptist Church. The floral offerings were mournful and beautiful. He leaves in mourn their loss a wife, four sons, one daughter with the American Expeditionary forces in France, many relatives and a host of friends whose sympathy goes out to the bereaved family in this their hour of sorrow and loss.

One special feature of the afternoon was that Miss Harris, a member of the faculty, rendered a number of pleasing selections on the piano while the guest dined sumptuously on oyster soup, celery, pickle 'a' Ala Rose, Turkey with cranberries and many other things that will long be remembered. It really made one forget this country life, and caused him to dream that he was sitting beneath the white lights of "The Cafe Elitero" in Chicago, be anesthetized by the anesthetical bearing of this great hall. The community at large is prevailing with the President to pull off this same St. New Year Day. Pearl has his great personality, his master business views and his magnanimous mind has raised the standard of Turner College, he has injected into her veins the virus of life, confidence, cleanliness, industry an deficiency and the life of this man will last as long as there is a Turner College. Now let all Methodist lay down in individual gains and pessimism, stop murdering the educational lives of our boys and girls in the name of selfishness, join hands in co-operation with this God sent man, make it worth his while to stay here with us, then recline on your couch of service and patience and through the clear glass of optimism watch Turner grow to be one of the greatest schools of this country.

DARTING, PIERCING SCIATIC PAWS Give way before the penetrating effects of Sloan's Liniment So do those rheumatic twinges and the lainaches of lumbago, the nerve- inflammation of pearritis, the wry neck, the joint wrench, the ligament sprain, the muscle strain, and the throbbing bruise. The case of applying, the quickness of relief, the positive results, the cleanliness, and the economy of Sloan's Liniment make it universally preferred. Sloan's Liniment Kills Pain 0c. 60, $1.20.
