VOLUME XIV CAROL SINGERS CHRISTMAS EVE CAROL SINGERS CHRISTMAS EVE AUSPICES OF PHYLLIS WHEAT-LEY CHORAL SOCIETY WILL SING FOR NEGRO CHILDREN—BE PREPARED TO MEET THEM—PUT A LIGHT IN WINDOW. "For unto you is born this day in the city of David, a Savior, which is Christ the Lord." The Choral Society of the National Baptist Publishing House will sing Christmas Carols on Christmas eve under the auspices of the Phyllis Wheatley that they will be able to dominate their services in the interest of humanity and they are hoping that they will receive the hearty co-operation of the citizens of this city. The spirit of joy that comes with Christmas is the most spontaneous and all-pervading that marks any holiday occasion. The patriotic impulse on a nation's birthday or a sovereign's birthday, as the occasion may be, does not touch the universal heart as does Christmas. There are hearts that will be sad if they are not membered by some one. They are not able to do for themselves and they must be made happy by some one. Have you ever tried to "happy MRS. CLARA HODGKINS BAILEY, Wife of Dr. Bailey of Cleveland, O., visiting in this city. up any one?" If you have not, then try it this year by contributing to the Carol singers when they come your way. I have, are asking that you burn a leg in, in your window and then you will be sure to get the benefit of this melodious music, a reminder of that memorable night when the heavenly choir sang its paeans on the plains of Bethlehem thousands of years ago. In their tour they will take the liberty of stopping at the homes of those they know to be friends of the Phyllis. Wheatley, regardless as to whether there is a lish burning in their windows or not. But whatever you do be sure to see that a light is burning from your window from 7:00 o'clock until the singers come your way, for they will certainly be there sometime between nine and midnight. Christmas should be a time of happiness and those who are not able to get out and do for themselves should be made to feel the spirit of our blessed Saviour's birth in some way, and the members of this society have taken this means to raise money in order that some of the cheer that is so very prevalent at this time of the year may be distributed to those we are quite sure that no hope will fail to be prepared for those singers. Let us not forget the spirit that exists at this time of the year. It is as if the very Savior himself were here. Remember the words of the dew Lord when he said: "If ye have dor it unto the least of these my lifetimes, that ye have done it unto me; I was sick and ye visited me; I was hungry and ye fed me; I was naked and ye clothed me." Then in the face of this injunction can you fail to enjoy the Christmas as in the joy that will certainly enjoy the Christmas with more joy, with greater joy and with a clearer conscience if you know that you have made some poor child or some sick mother happy. A donation from you to these singers on Christmas eve will come back to you in hundredfold more benefits than if you keep it and don't send it out to bless and be blessed. Remember to have your light burning on the night of Christmas eve for these singers will certainly come your way. If your street is not in your way, slow then call Main 1236 and give your number and we will gladly respond. If there are friends, white or colored, who especially wish to have these singers come their way, they can also call Main 1236 and they will be glad to call upon you.

C. has just written to the Nashville Globe congratulating the Nashville the excellent edition of the paper of some weeks ago. Mr. Scott says: "I wish to congratulate you upon the splendid Victory Issue of the Nashville Globe under date of December 6th. It was full of information and matter relative to the manifold activities of the race and work of the colored American was most brilliantly treated. From the viewpoint of literary excellence, typographical neatness and artistic arrangement this special issue of the Globe takes care with any that our people have yet produced. I am placed under additional and lasting obligations to you for your very generous and laudable review of the work I have tried to do for the race here in the War Department during my occuency of something more than a year. It is through such support and encouragement you have given me that I have been able to achieve some of the results you have seen out as worth while. EMMETT J. SCOOT, Special Asst istant "SECRETARY OF WAR." DR. CLAXTON ON COLORED SCHOOLS. Washington, D. C.—The Commissioner of Education, a Southern man, issues an official statement of the war time needs of colored schools. A few are widely known and well supported; and more have an assured, though inadequate income from denominational and private sources. "But," to quote Dr. Claxton, "many of the best private schools, including especially the effective small schools of the industrial type, are independent in character, and have no income except from donations." These schools on which the South must so largely depend for efficient workers in agriculture and other fields of essential labor, are hard hit by the war, the necessary war appeals having quite overshadowed them in the minds of their former helpers. At the same time the high cost of living, and government cails for helpers at a living wage, have deprived these schools of many of their best teachers, who have for years "from sheer devotion to work, served for small calaries." These schools, "both of the academic and the industrial type, need money urgently, not only for the necessary supplies, but have been doing for care, but to provide the special training imperative needed for large numbers of colored people in the war emergency"—and in the no less exticient emergency of world construction following peace. The Bureau of Education lists, in Bulletin No. 16, No. 38, all colored schools, with descriptions and recommendations. The Bureau will gladly supply information to any one who is interested. The prosperity of big business and big development largely depends, and especially in the South, on the choice of laborers. The large numbers of colored workers and citizens NEGROES OVER-SUBSCRIBE QUOTAS. The Mutual Savings Bank, of Plainmouth, Va., (colored), was assigned $12,500 as its quota of the Fourth Liberty Loan. A Federal Reserve bank official of Richmond reports its total subscription as $15,000. The Atlanta chairman of the Fourth Loan campaign stated to the Atlanta Chamber of Commerce that the largest subscriptions in proportion to the subscriber's resources made in the city was that of the Standard Life Insurance Company, a colored institution, which subscribed $50,000. Employees added to this $5,000 of personal subscriptions. The quota of Warren County, Ga., for the War Work drive, was $3,000 for both races. Before the drive opened the Negroes had subscribed this amount, and $250 over. In the same way the colored people of Wilson county, N. C., oversubscribed the $14,000 quota of the county before the drive opened; and the county chairman had to have the quota raised to $30,000 to give the white people a fair chance. CHRISTMAS EXERCISES AT CHURCHFES. Christmas exercises among the churches of the city are to be held at various times. A large number of the churches have announced they would hold their exercises Christmas Eve night, with the usual Christmas Tree for the little ones. At Mt. Tabor Sunday morning Superintendent Bake announced their Christmas tree and exercise would be held on Friday night, Dec 27th. Others were to announce this week when theirs would be held for the benefit of their many members and friends. NASHVILLE, TENN., FRIDAY, DECEMBER 20, 1918. Publishing House Choral Society That Will Sing Corals Christmas Eve Night for the Benefit of Colored Children. Under the Auspices of Phyllis Wheatley Club. SHOULD WOMEN BE INCLUDED SHOULD WOMEN BE INCLUDED SUFFRAGE AGITATION SPREADING WOMEN ARE NOT DETRIMENTAL — LATENT POWERS LAUDED — EQUALS OF ANY POWER — NO DEMORALIZATION HERE. The issue at stake is whether or not the including of women in political affairs has a corrupting influence upon society. We contend that surrogat agitation is not demoralizing in its effects upon society for in all of the states, Wyoming, Colorado, Utah, Idaho, Kansas and others where women have been given political rights, it has not proved detrimental for it has brought to light the latent powers which have baltic him diment in woman and thus with her literary genius and political power she has been able to lift society to an even higher plan. 'It is aconceded fact that society begins at home and it is here that mother instils the principles of patriotism in the hearts of those clinging to her for guidance and protection. Women are equal mentally to any other ruling power and therefore her influence would be as uplifting for from like sources like results are obtained. Past experience in various wars and political affairs proves that woman has been a benefit rather than a menace to society for she has taught by word and deed, frugality and industry and raised sons and daughters that might become worthy citizens. Women has not receded so far from the past that if she were given a greater scope over which to wield her magnetic influence, she would be a corruption to society. Women, having a voice in political affairs will anilhate the liquor traffic which destroys youthful manhood and womanhood for she has already given birth to the anti-liquor movement which is prevalent in the United Publishing House Choral for the Benefit of Colored States today and which is making the world sit up and take note and if she had the right by ballot to blot such a disgrace from the face of the globe she would certainly do so for it is natural to the tender loving heart of a woman to wish to relegate to the shades, those things which destroy the beautiful and the good. All agree that checking the liquor traffic would not be demoralizing to society. Women, if emancipated, enlightened, entranched will be able to render more efficient service for they will soon put an end to a brutal slaughter and make this world a decent abode as they will not allow their sons as Napoleon said, "to be given as flesh for the cannon." Our women brokers, clerks, bankers, lawyers and those in other business enterprises are not demoralizing to society for they have as high elites as business and political affairs. Cicero said of Cornelia, who gave pub lic lectures on philosophy in Rome, "Cornelia deserves the first place among philosophers," and we have at this age, those greater than Cornelia. It may be said that political rights to woman is demoralizing to society in that it will cause that disruption of the home. The age is too far advanced for such and argument. Woman has discovered herself. Shrouded in that inner recess which no one can approach, she has a consciousness and a love of home which nothing can destroy but an endeavor to chain her there when she should have as much liberty as man. It is also objected that such political rights will give bad women too much power. In anything the majority is always the ruling power and only seven per cent of the worlds criminals are women. In our penitentiary there are sixty women against about fifteen hundred men. Another object is that her commanding with the opposite sex will lesson the respect shown her. We will answer by asking "does it lower her standing when she goes to the post office, church, opera and other public places?" Some may say that her lack of business qualification makes her unfit for political power. Many women today are successful in the business world for you cannot name any industry that has not crowned her efforts with success. All will now agree with me when I say that suffragist agitation is not demoralizing in its effects upon society for woman has always proved worthy of any trust placed upon her and, what woman has done, woman can do. A WORD TO MY PEOPLE. Editor of the Globe. Please allow me space to say a few words. Seeing that this year is greater than all previous years in many ways, is about to close, have we stopped to consider what we as a race have done with our money and influence? This has been a year of much money and the Negro has gotten his share. But what has he done with it? We have made good money at the great Powder Plant and wages have been raised in the city. We hasten to spend it with the white business houses when the same business as conducted by our own people are not supported by us. Is it impossible for us to learn that if we would receive support we must first learn to support ourselves. We have various schools giving our boys and girls special business training. But what must they do when they have finished? Can we find any of our boys and girls clerking, book keeping or stenorahsing is any of the city dry goods stores, drug stores, then it must follow that we must make such openings in our own business enterprises for our own people. For more than fifty years we have given the bulk of our money to other races. Shall we allow this to go on for another fifty years? Let us not sleep forever, but let us awaken to the full meaning of progress and keep pace with the business world as well as the educational and financial worlds. Leaders, teach us how to use our money. JOSEPH SHUTTE. A Globe reader. COMMISSIONED AS CHAPLAINS.

TOOTHACHE. It is traditional that a patient suffering with toothache, especially a toothache that is stubborn in yielding to homeopathic treatment, will go to the dentist and make demands on him to extract the offending tooth without regarding the professional status or the dentist or even giving the dentist a chance to make a scientific examination and to arrive at an accurate diagnosis, thus advising the patient what is best for him and proceed with whatever operations that are necessary and make permanent repairs according to the indications in the given case. The principal cause of toothache is an exposed pulp (nerve); this condition brought about by the painful caries (tooth decay), and the very smallest pulp expulsion may cause excruciating pain in ninety-five cases out of one hundred where there is toothache from pulp exposure the tooth can be repaired and restored to permanent usefulness and the beauty. The trouble is: the lity look upon their teeth as "Oh, well, a matter-of-fact, and if I ever have the tooth I'll go to the drug store and put some syrup on it that don't stop it why I'll go to the dentist and make him pull it out." The teeth should not be regarded so lightly. They are important; they are a potent factor in the mechanism of the human body, but because of the ease of access to them, because of their permanent fixation and because of the apparent slow process of decay, the laity is hopelessly underestimating the importance and the need of the teeth, and the same reason the laity underestimating the ability of the modern dental surgeon to cope with this situation. The modern dental surgeon is looked upon by the laity as a person merely to pull teeth ('jez' yank 'em out') and grind down in your tooth and put some oil of cloves in it. But that is not so, and were I to tell you of the progress of the dental profession and what a potent factor it is in the category of modern science, Nahville itself could not contember the book. We must create our teeth; we must take our teeth; we must appreciate the dental profession and we must value the dental profession. Mary had some little teeth. They were white as snow; Mary didn't clean them. Black they soon did grow. By Chalmers Hirsten, Senior Den- tial Class, McHarry Dental College. A LETTER FROM FRANCE Mr. Darling Mother: "Hello!" Today I feel all tired out, have been walking so much, but of course I am not too tired to write to you. First, we are on a forlough at a big summer resort, and, believe me, we are weaving the time of our lives. When we get off our train we were taken to a big hotel where we had dinner, after which we were at liberty to go where we wanted to. We went to the Y. M. C. A., one of the most beautiful places you ever saw. After tipper went to a good movie show in the "Y". The next day we took a hike over the beautiful mountain which I could never begin to tell you about. We went on one mountain that was five thousand feet above the city, and on top stands a little stone castle built in 1545. I wish you could see it. The next day we went to a church which was built in 1583. We walked on a road that Napoleon led his army over. It's perfectly wonderful to see and to go to these places. Well, you can see that I am O. K. This doesn't begin my whole story, but just a little. Now is mother dear, and "Dad?" I hope they are all right as usual. My friend boys send love to both Especially Fred Fuller, Gray and my first Segment Colbert. My love to everybody. Bye Bye. Your loving son. CORP. FRED SEARCY. Corp.

FUTURE OF RED CROSS DISCUSSED FUTURE OF RED CROSS DISCUSSED 3854 CHAPTERS IN THE UNITED STATES BENEFICIENT WORK TO GO FORWARD—FUTURE POLICY OUTLINED—ANNUAL MEMBERSHIP FEE ONLY $1.00. Henry P. Davidson, Chairman of the War Council of the American Red Cross, today issued to the 3854 Chapters and the 2200 members of the Red Cross the following statement outlining the future policy of the American Red Cross: To the SS44 Chapters the 22,000,000 members of the American Red Cross: The whole American people will be invited in the week preceding Christmas to enrol as members of the Red Cross. It is confidently believed that there need be no further campaigns for the Red Cross funds, but instead, the Annual Roll Call will constitute the foundation of the Red Cross. The people therefore should know as definitely as possible the plans of this, their national humanitarian society. Since the armistice was signed I have had no opportunity to confer in Paris with the heads of all American Red Cross Commissions in Europe, and later in Washington with the President o the United States, the War Council of the Red Cross, the Managers of the fourteen Division of the American States and with heads of our departments at National Headquarters. I am, therefore, able to speak now with knowledge and assurance in saying that the beneficent work of the American Red Cross is to go forward on a great scale—not alone as herefore, for purposes of relief of war, but as an agency of peace and permanent human service. Since America's entry into the war, the purpose of our Red Cross has been primarily, to aid our army and navy in the care of our own men under arms, and, secondly, to extend relief to the soldiers, sailors and civilians of those nations which were fighting our battles along with our own. With the tunes of the band, the American people by the American people this war work of the Red Cross will continue to be completed with all possible stimulation and energy. When may be on residents and sailors may be the Red Cross will stay with them until they are demobilized. Nothing which we may do will be left undone either for the men in the war zone, or for those returning, or for those in the camps and hospitals or for their families at home to whom will continue to be devoted the ministrations of the Red Cross Home Service. In this latter effort 500,000 trained Red Cross workers are now engaged at 2,500 different places throughout the land. For the completion of its war work and for the institution of its peace program, the Red Cross is fortunately in a healthy financial condition and the most extensive funds of money and great quantities of garments and other supplies will continue to arise, but it is believed they will be no further need for intensive campaigns for funds. The work of supplementing governmental activities which the Red Cross will be called on to do in all parts of the world, will be on a great scale, but it will call for human service rather that for large expenditures. What the American Red Cross needs now is not so much contributions of money as the continued devotion and loyalty of its members. This is particularly true at this moment of transition from war to peace. Annual membership involves the payment of only one dollar. The money thus received not only deny all the administration expenses of the organization but leaves a substantial balance which, together with all funds subscribed directly for relief, is devoted solely to that purpose.

MEMBER NATIONAL NEGRO PRESS ASSOCIATION Nashville, Teen., Dec. 20, '18 Nineteen hundred years ago there was hung i the windows of heaven a service star. This star indicated to the wise men that in Bethlehem of Judea a child was born, upon whose shoulders the government would rest. This star foretold that the King of Kings had been born to die for his people, for all peoples. Nineteen hundred years later many, many homes are displaying service stars in their windows showing that their loved ones are gone to fight and die, if needs be for their people, for principles. As we celebrate this Yuletide season, let us not forget those of us who are far away from home, who must spend their Christmas in far away France. The Yuleletide Season naturally implies joy, mirth and giving. Since we have so much to be joyous over, let us give, give to those who will appreciate it most. Many give because they expect something in return. Why not make this a Christmas of giving to those who can not return it? The joy will be greater, you will wear a smile that will not come off. Try it just once and see how it feels. Make some one else happy. Then you will be happy yourself. / Don't forget the kiddies this year. They don't know about the high cost of living. So fill their little stockings with goodies. Make this a real Christmas for them. Have you bought and paid for your share of War Scamps? The time is almost out. It is about time some of the old reliables were making their new year's resolutions. Merry Christmas! NEGRO LOYALTY. In the recent expose of prominent American individuals and newspapers charged with sparinged or being influenced by German propaganda during the war, it is singularly gratifying that high officials, in charge of investigating these matters, unanimously declare that American Negroes were not in the least affected or influenced as a result of attempts to beguile them through German propaganda. "Money used in the South (for the purpose of influencing Negroes to disloyalty) was all wasted," they say; where in the American Negro ever compromised himself or the nation. We knew the powerful pressure of big money, such as was doubtless being spent in the effort to promote sedition and insurrection, but we stood firm in the belief that the Negro in America was unswerving and although his experience with the home folk has been particularly unpleasant and unsatisfactory, he had the vision to see beyond the narrow spheres of revenge, to the greater issue of 'a nation which would endure after the turmoil of war. Moreover, the American Negro loves his native land. He does not wish to overthrow it; he wishes to purge it of its wrong, redeem it, and make it "a more decent place in which to live." We were fighting for "democracy" at home as well as abroad and if we do not see democracy established here at home we shall be sorely disappointed. The great majority of right thinking people, even here in the southland, know that the status of Negro people is unjust, and a great many would welcome some solution and salvation of the situation which could come THE BLACK MAN STOOD PAT. The war did more for the Negro American than had been accomplished in several decades of peace. He demonstrated that he could fight, that his willingness and capacity for work were unlimited; that he could easily adapt himself to strange surroundings, and that he understood the purpose of Liberty Bonds, which he almost invariably bought until it actually and positively "hurt." The Great Northern Place We carry an exquisite Line of Best Woolens to be tailored for both Ladies and Gents "AS NEAR YOU AS YOUR TELEPHONE" Jas. W. Eakins The High C We carry an ex "AS N One of the most glorious things that happened to the Negro, however, was the revelation of his absolute unshakable loyalty to the Stars and Stripes. Evidence adduced before the Senate committee now sitting shows that German propagandists failed miserably in their efforts among the blacks. That they operated principally among the plantation Negroes of the South and there made no headway whatever is significant. It is a splendid tribute to the Americanism of the Negro. It might be supposed that among men and women who are not regular readers of the newspapers, who trust to the "grapevine," which makes a wireless station of every cabin, for most of their information, the fairy tales of the paid German agents would find fertile ground. But the Negro stood pat. "You have no country," was an insidious remark that was dimmed into his ears night and day. "You'll never get your Liberty bond money back." was another "You'll get forty acres of land if the Germans win." they were told. And they were assured that victory for the "humane" Germans meant an end of all hanging and instant levelling of all social lives in the United States. Many white "intellectuals" in the North succumbed to sophistries and lies, but those black亿ions did not. Their hearts proved pure gold and they stood by Uncle Sam. The secret service needed no special trains for Negro excursions to internment camps. It is that same亿born spirit of loyalty to the government that has prevented the I.W.W. from gaining converts among the blacks of the South, no matter how poor they are or how unjust their position economically. The southern Negro who remained at home to till the field was proud of his part in the war. He was quick to realize a situation which he expressed thus: "We've sure got to work hard and feed our soldiers and all their friends or they can't fight for us." But the Negro is not unduly proud of the proofs of his loyalty. He knew he was 100 per cent American all the time. He knows, incidentally, a lot of other things that many people don't know he knows. Any intelligent southerner will tell you that one of the greatest mistakes of northern theorists in considering the Negro is the belief that he is simple and easily fooled. It is true that he often takes advantage of this supposed simplicity as a convenient camouflage in an argumentative pinch. But watch your step before you pick a plantation darky out for a "boob." Ask the Kaiser. —Chicago Herald and Examiner. COMPLETE DEMOBILIZATION OF MEHARRY STUDENTS ARMY TRAINING CORPS One of the most notable events in the history of Meharry was the mobilization of the Meharry Unit this past week. This was arranged for the convenience of all the Unit was divided into four parts to go out on December 17, 18, 19, and 20, respectively. The young men were all jolly and took to the work of demobilization with the usual students' zeal. The most looked for announcement was the arrival of the check for the $9,000 which was due for the past two months' pay of the enlisted soldiers. Tuesday was the day set for the first pay day and promptly at one o'clock our Personnel Adjutant Lieut. Lawrence E. Boyd went to the People's Bank and Trust Company and cashed the warrant for the $9,000, assisted by Dr. E. I. Robinson and Samuel J. Perino brought the full amount to the noted Meharry Medical College, where they were very joyfully received with unusual military honors. The mess hall was arranged where the men were ordered to report and receive their pay. The men were given all the way from 500 to $6. The men were paid according to their alphabetic surnames, having been formed into lines by Sergeant Major C. T. Hume and sent to the pay master. Many were the joyful faces when the money was really placed into their hands. Wednesday morning the real demobilization started and men were allowed leave of absence from their classes to finish their business with the government and receive the final discharge from the United States Army. Each man presented himself with his blankets and bed sack to Commander Leutenant Cooper where he received a slip which sent him to Personnel Adjunct Leut. Lawrence E. Boyd, who gave him five different forms of paper and then sent him to Leut D. A. Lane, where he received his final discharge paper, which made him an American citizen. The men rejoiced in that they joined the NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY DECEMBER 20, M. Where you can always find a Full Line of army and had their camps at Meharry, where they attended school all the time. Many have been the complaints from the men that they could not study as in former years on account of having to drill and attend the evening retreat, but all has subsided since they have received their pay. There were 295 men on the S. A. T. C. Roster and all of them have received a soldiers' suit of clothes, two shirts and three pairs of sox, shoes, strings and two suits of underwear, were thankfully received not withstanding they came late. The overcrowds came in for the greatest amount of praise owing to the fact they will keep "Old Crimp" from disturbing the anatomy of most of the students. Two much praise cannot be given the colored officers for the manner in which they have conducted this Unit and some of the boys are praising for war to come as far as it did to "Meharry" just one more time. Friday was the day set for the final pay day when some $5,000 more was paid to the pictures of the entire Unit were taken. Joseph was a memento of this the greatest year Meharry had been able to have in history. Promotions were given the men in the following manner: As Battallion Sergeant Majors: Claude T. Hume, Ralph W.

TROUBLE WAS BRONCHIAL. Not the Slightest Sign of Cough Since Taking Lung-Vita. "Lung-Vita is sure a fine medicine and I believe it saved me winter before last. I can't praise it nearly enough," says Mrs. Sina Burns, who lives on Route I, Boston, Teen. Mrs. Burns formerly liven on route 3, Carter's Creek, Tenn. "I had the worst cough you ever heard of, and all the people in the neighborhood thought I had tuberculosis, although my trouble was really bronchial. This cough sore caused me an awful lot of suffering, and I thought it was going to be the death of me. But since I have taken two classes of Lung-Vita there is not the stigma of a cough, and I never felt betrayed by it, which every one who suffers with a bronchial affection would give Lung-Vita a fair, square trial." Lung-Vita is sold by most progressive drugresearchers and dealers, but if yours won't supply you, write Nasville Medicine Co. Nashville, Tenn. for a free booklet. (Adv.) WINCHESTER.

TWENTIETH ANNIVERSARY OF DR, G. H, SIMS New York—The most notable event in religious circles here the past week in the Baptist denomination was the celebration of the twentieth anniversary of the Rev. George H. Sims, D. D., as the founder and pastor of the Union Baptist Church in West Sixty-third Street. The anniversary sermon was preached by the Rev. Dr. F. W. Williams, pastor of the Queen Street Baptist Church, Norford, Va. The church edifice was beautifully decorated and the use of the new electrical attachment added warmth and charm to the various colors used in the decorations. The occasion created much interest in the community and the exercises were largely attended by enthusiastic crowds. Dr. Slim received a tiffany gold watch and-chain, $111.34 and hearty greetings and gifts from the following named persons representing auxiliaries of the church: Church Aid Society, Miss Gladys Parker, Sunday school, Master Harold Hinkson, B.

Hayes and wife, Emmanuel Church musical selections George H. Sims was born at Cumberland, Va., forty-seven years ago last April. His boyhood days were spent in the activities common to country life in which he imbibed the spirit of thrift and self-reliance and economy. He was converted at eleven years of age and was baptized by the late Rev J. White, pastor of the Tearwallett Baptist Church. Rev Dr. Sims was united in marriage to Miss M. Elizabeth Davis of Petersburg, Va. Sept. 25, 1895. Mrs. Sims was married in August, 1908. Sims was married to his present wife who is a native of Cumberland, Va. Nov. 2, 1909. The family consists of Rev, and Mrs. Sims and three children. Dr. Sims' ministerial career in New York has been wonderfully successful, although in the beginning he had a hard struggle in getting the people to see the necessity of living a Christian life. He started the Union Baptist Church in one of the most sadly neglected spots in New York City from every point of view at that time. Eight other persons were with the Rev. Dr. Sims in the organization of the church which has grown to a membership of 3349 and property valued at $126,000. His husband has baptized 1,619 persons and united in marriage 1,057 couples. He is a zealous worker in many good movements outside of his own church and is an able advocate of racial unity and co-operation. Dr. Sims is serving his sixth year as president of the New York Colored Baptist State Convention. During the Rev. Sims' administration the convention has grown rapidly and is now doing a splendid work for missions and education. Dr. Sims has been honored by appointment on several occasions for contributions of trust and responsibility by Governors of this state. He is a trustee of Virginia Theological Seminary and a member of the board of managers of several religious organizations and charitable institutions. MRS. BEULAH. HARRIS. WILLS MRS. BEULAH HARRIS WILLS. Visiting in the city for the past fortnight has been Mrs. Beulah Harris Wills, the wife of Mr. J. W. Wills, of Cleveland, Ohio. She is the guest of her sisters, Mrs. Beulah Harris and Mrs. Wills, and has been the recipient of many social courtesies. Mrs Wills is the daughter of Mrs. Richard Harris, one of Nashville's oldest and most respected families, and will perhaps be remembered by the Nashville people, although she has not resided in Nashville for more than twenty years, she being one of the older children. During her stay out of Nashville most of the time has been spent in the north, but she has always been a constant admirer of the push exercised by her husband for her education in the schools and universities of the city. Mrs Wills goes from here to visit another sister, Mrs. Layy, the wife of Dr. Levy, or Anderson, S. C. From there she visits still another sister, Mrs. Hickman, the wife of Dr. Hickman, of Memphis, Tenn. CHAPLAIN REID HERE Among the visitors in the city this week was Chaplain W. A. Reid, who has the rank of first lieutenant in the Regular Army. Lieut.-Chaplain Reid finished from the chaplains' training school at Louisville but his home is in Plains, Ga. He stopped by Nashville to visit Dr. Reid at Clarke's Pharmacy on Jefferson street. While here he also was entertained by Dr. Boyd of the National Baptist Publishing Board. MRS. CLAR AHODGKINS-BAILEY. Society folks have been charmed by the presence of Mrs. Clara Hodgkins Bailey, the wife of Dr. Bailey, of Cleveland, O., who is here visiting her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Hodgkins, and her sister, Mrs. W. J. Hale, of A. & I. State Normal. Mrs. Bailey has been out of the city for the past six years, since her marriage to Dr. Bailey, after he had finished at Meharry Medical College. A part of the time was spent in Texas, where they made a host of friends, but just prior the exodus north they decided to cast their fortunes in a northern clime, so Dr. Bailey moved to Cleveland, where he is reported to be one of the largest practitioners in the city. Mrs. Bailey in visiting relatives decided that the Yuletide season would be the best time to renew old acquaintances in Nashville. "IN MEMORY. In sad and loving memory of our beloved and devoted father, W. T. Hightower, who passed away one year ago, December 3rd, 1917. Mr. and Mrs. W. T. Hightower and daughter. Dr. and Mrs. A. B. Dockett. Peace and unity are attained by mutual consent and mutual endeavor on the part of the persons interested. A forced union would be worse than open division. It was the hope of the brethren who really desire and pray for peace among the Baptists that we might all agree upon a Christian basis of union which would insure united work of all our forces to advance the kingdom of Christ. But, if Dr. W. H. Moses, in his recent article in the Baptist Voice, expresses the sentiment of the convention which he represents, then there will be no union; nor would it be for the best interest of Baptists that there should be any. When either side to the present controversy manifests the arrogane, in consistency and bull-dosing tactics expressed in Dr. Moses' article, it proof positive that he is unprepared to unite with any band of Christian brethren to do the Lord's work. As a member of the commission we do not feel at liberty to enter into a discussion of the merits of the case we shall be called pon to decide; but we feel certain if all the members of the commission come to Nashville feeling as Dr. Moses and some others seem to feel, judging from their expressive, we shall be no nearer the much desired peace when we leave Nashville than when we went. However, God is all powerful and His grace unbounded, and we shall pray that He will change Brother Moses' heart that he may come to the meeting as a brother to counsel with his brethren, and not as a dictator. —The Torchlight—Danville, Ky. ROOSEVELT WOULD LET BRITAIN RULE Preparedness Champion Now Opposes Building Navy as Big as Eng- New York, Dec. 10.—That the United States and Great Britain could today agree to a universal arbitration treaty which would make war between the two nations impossible for all time is the opinion expressed by Theodore Roosevelt in a letter made public here today which the Colonel wrote to George Haven Putnam, president of the American Rights League. "I am now prepared to say what five years age I would not have said," the former President wrote. "I think the time has come when the United States and the British Empire can agree on a universal arbitration treat." WOULD VOW PEACE ALLIANCE. "In other words, I believe that the time has come when we should say that under no circumstances shall there ever be a resort to war between the United States and the British Empire, that no question can ever arise between them that cannot be settled in judicial fashion, in some such manner as questions between states of our own Union would be settled." Colonel Roosevelt's letter was written in response to an invitation extended to him by Mr. Putnam to join the English speaking union, of which Mr. Arthur J. Balfour, British foreign secretary, is president. DECLINES MEMBERSHIP Although declining to accept membership, explaining that he was devoting his time "to secure in this country a spirit of undivided American nationalism," Colonel Roosevelt said he was in sympathy with the general purpose of the English-speaking union. In his letter the Colonel expressed opinion also that the United States should not try to build a navy equal to England's, which he described as "probably the most potent instrumentality for peace in the world," but that America's navy should be second in strength. BANK'S FACTION AGAIN REFEATS FUIGNE, P. BOOZE. Mound Bayou, Miss., Dec. 13,1918 Special to Globe. At a regular municipal election held here this week, Eugene P. Boobe was again defeated by the present incumbent, B. H. Creswell, for Mayor of the town of Mound Bayou, together with the entire Administration Ticket, by a vote of 2 to 1. It will be remembered that Booze has been trying to get into office here for several years, and he once ran for Alderman and received only 13 votes. Later, secured appointment as Mayor in an effort to oust the present Administration, but also lost that in the court. And now, he has been definitely defeated at the polls. Mound Bayou repudiates and refuses to place at its head any man taking the stand he took against Perry Howard for National Committee, as well as other things obnoxious to the citizens. DEATH OF MRS DEGRAFEENREID Announcement of the death of the Mr. Degrafeenreid, which occurred Saturday morning at his home on Pearl street and 17th Ave. N., caused much sorrow.

Mr. Alonzo Price, who has been away from the city for almost a year, reselling in Pennsylvania, has returned to take up his residence in Nashville. The Lauretta Hair Grower is the WONDERFUL HAIR SALVE on the ma ST. JOHN BAPTIST CHURCH. The St. John Baptist Church is very proud indeed of her present pastor, Rev. W. H. Whittaker, who has been our shepherd for nearly two years. He was called here in February, 1917, and was installed into his office in July of the same year, Dr. C. H. Clark preaching his installation sermon. And we must give honor to whom honor is due, for he has done more towards bringing the church up on an equal basis with other sister churches than any other pastor since the church was organized. The church has grown wonderfully under his administration both in membership and financially. We love him and pray God to let him continue with us and lead us on. Our congregation and membership has grown so until we are forced to build a new church. We intend to erect an edifice that no one will be ashamed of. We have already raised quite a little sum, but not near enough to start out to building as yet, for the cost of material. We will need to work more more, and very fast so if it is God's will we will be able to start our building next spring. Our doors stand wide to whoever desires to unite with us. You are well welcome, and visitors are always made welcome. No one that comes ever regrets it, for we have one of the best preachers in the city of Nashville. He's a young man, but God is using him for a great cause, and we are trying to make him feel that we love him and are trying to take care of him for he deserves some flowers while he is living. ST.

BAPTIST CHURCH ORGANIZED IN FRANCE. Among the activities reported from the various units now in France since hostilities ceased is the religious work of the various denominations. Perhaps the most active of the forces are those members of the Bontiil churches who have come with the A. E. F.'s to France. This week Dr. R. H. Boyd, the secretary of the National Bontiil Publishing Board, received a letter stating that a Bapst church had been properly organized in France. This is the first or organized church reported thus far. A number of Sunay schools have been organized by the soldier boys. The letter follows: Bordaux, France, Nov. 19,1918. "R. H.

We are not behind, we are keeping abreast of the times and while we have been fighting the Huns and putting them to rout, chasing them in every direction, planting the Stars and Strikes with the allied forces on this soil, we have been doing the work of the Master. As early as last February we organized what is known as Morning Star Baptist Church of Boulange, France. Our organization was built with but two volunteers, At the Tuesday Test. Prof Gibson was chosen pastor, Brothers Jos Echols and Jos Tesh Brown decons. Although we started out with a small beginning we have by persistent efforts through our earnest prayers succeeded in increasing the membership until we now have forty. Four of these were received by hardship and others have been taken in by letters and Christian experience. We have seven deacons now and we hold Sunday school every Sunday morning. In connection with the school there is a splendid Bible class on every Friday night. The regular church services are on the first and third Sundays of each month, while the regular prayer meeting is on Wednesday night. We trust if our Convention sends a delegation over here they will visit our church in this part of France. INV. 1487 PRIVATE LEG. PRIVATE ECHOLS. Co. D. 307, Battalion, Battalion.

TO GROW LONG, STRAIGHT HAIR You Need a Real Scalp Food. There are so many so-called hair growers on the market, a large bar of which are nothing more than people who want to wander people get discouraged and lose faith in all hair tonics. In deciding what to use on your scalp be sure and get a remedy of proven merit. Secury's Quinade is a highly medicated pomade that has stood the test of time; it is a real scalp food; it stimulates and nourishes the roots of the hair, causing a natural growth of long hair. Quinade is the invention of an expert chemist and is made under supervision of an experienced chemist, makes the hair soft and smooth and easy to put up in the style desired. To get best results from the use of Quinade it is necessary to shampoo the scalp about every two weeks with Seeby's Quinasea. Quinasea is made entirely out of pure vegetable oils, principally coconut oil, and is a thorough cleaner. Quinasea soothes the scalp. It leaves the hair soft and fatty and imparts a refreshing feeling to the scalp unequalled by any other shampoo. Do not accept any substitute, but insist on getting Seeby's Quinade and Seeby's Quinasea, asking for them by the full name. Price is 25 cents each.

Serve the Lord with fear and rejoice with trembling.” Nineteen hundred years ago, the Lowly Nazarene, the greatest expounder of democracy declared “Do unto others as ye would that they should do unto you.”“Love ye one another.” “Whosoever heareth these sayings of mine and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man which built his house upon a rock, and the rain descended and the floods came and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not for it was founded upon a rock. Every one that heareth these sayings and doeth them not shall be likened unto a foolish man that built his house upon the sand, and the floods came and the winds blew and beat upon that house and great was the fall thereof” For nineteen hundred years, the nations have built their hope on a sardy foundation, and when the storm descended great was the fall of their house. Let us beware how we build our future civilization. Let us remember that the Most High rules in the affairs of men. Let selfishness and envy and hatred and prejudice be forever excluded from the principles of our new democracy. Above all, let us pray that the spirit of Him who is no respector of persons may permeate and regenerate the hearts of those men into whose hands are intrusted the affairs of our government, as they sit around the council table, and help them to build on the solid rock. A greater storm is gathering, a mightier conflict must be waged and great will be the fall if the foundation is not sure. Boston Chronicle SAVING OUR EARNINGS With the letting down of activities in this section and other parts of the country, much of the prosperity which has come to the civilian people will grow less and less in various ways. The colored people here as elsewhere have done their bit and been paid splendidly for their services. Just how many have been taught the lessons of thrift, so much talked about and written about, is questionable. Few people who have not been taught the habit of saving some of the money made, seem to understand what to do with the money when they have more than they need to meet their actual expenses and what is of greater moment, is the fact that that class of people are hard to reach and when reached, harder to convince, that they can greatly benefit themselves by saving some of the surplus money which they earn. If the young colored men in Newport News could be influenced to put aside a small sum a week and then invest it into some sort of enterprise which would pay, it would be a splendid nucleus toward building up our people generally in a business way. We understand quite thoroughly that before the war was declared few of our people, according to the wages paid them, were able to save much of what they earned because wages were so adjusted in many of the industries, that colored people were generally paid only enough to meet the actual costs of living. But not so now. In many instances our people have been organized and are being paid the same wages as any other people performing similar service. Since wages have been adjusted to enable the working man to both live and have a little to save, it is indispensable that a most strenuous effort be put forth to reach our people generally everywhere, and impress upon them the important lesson of thrift. We can't accomplish any great thing individually, for two very great reasons, the one that few of our people have the means to launch finance and carry on any great enterprise of them. ```markdown ``` you at this season all the best Prosperity and Success you for the many favors you in us during the past year. CINSLEY'S NASHVILLE 礼 for Ladies, Misses and Childs TINSLEY'S NASHVILLE Hats for Ladies, Misses and Children M. E. Church, Sunday. The Flu has thathe will soon return. Mr. Nelson My Dear Friend:—Your etter was solves and the other is the fact that our people have not learned the lesson of spending their money with such enterprises, owned and controlled by colored people. So in order to both secure the money and insure success we have got to learn and practice the co-operative plan. We have got to interest our people in some commendable enterprise and then because of the fact that they are interested, to the extent their dollars and cents, make them support and build up their own enterprises. We have been taught so persistently to earn money from the white people and then hand it right back to him, that it will take years and years of patient teaching and training to convince our people that we can't hope to amount to a great deal until we learn more and more how to go together. It is really disgusting to see how some of our people will buy a thing without even looking at it. All you have got to do is to make a little music and crack a few "nigger" jokes and say "come up and give me a dollar," and they will fall over one another buying something they know nothing about; something that does not cost as much as the paper it is wrapped in. Mobile Weekly Press. In behalf of the North Sixth St. Baptist Sunday school, I have written this token of respect to the dear family which our dear member, Miss Birdie Payne has left behind. We all realize that she has pled a debt that we all have to pay. Realizing too that she has paid this precious debt, we regret having to depart from one of our members who we love so dearly. She was a dear girl. She was also one of our best Sunday school members. Every thing that was carried on in the Sunday school that would benefit each and every member she would take a part. She was a jewel t othose with whom she came in contact. Oh! how it greives me to think of the dear young lady passing away. We miss her as though she was a sister, and I think that she is a sister stated the sympathetic feeling of the church to the family. I will say sleep on, sleep on, sleep on Birdie and take your rest, for ever and ever with your Saviour. THIRD AVENUE BAPTIST CHURCH.

C., of Hampton fought in a sunset tilt to a draw. Both teams displayed excellent defensive form but somewhat weak on the offensive. They were evenly matched on the defensive but the Richmonders had the margin on offensive playing. Union's weakness on the offense was due largely to the injuring of Capt Hucules in the first three minutes of play. The brilliant Union star atop the Richmonders took the mule and saved the day for the Unionites. Two goals that would have been easy-pickling for the renowned drop kicker were missed because of his inability to use his educated toe. Howard and Walker proved too much for the Seasiders. McGinn, of the visitors was also an obstacle of much trouble to the Blue and white line. "Rabbit" Howard was here, there, and everywhere, wriggling and squirming through every available opening. With the exception of "Bulldog" Williams, he was the best ground galler. "Red" Walker, the fighting terror, of the Union aggregation, broke through the heavy Hampton line time after time and thereby stopped the fierce onslaught of the Seasiders' team. "Bulldog" Williams was easily the star of the Blue and White squad. His long drives through the line had a telling effect on his opponents defense. The Hampton warriors outweighed their lighter opponents by many pounds per man, but the speed and confidence of the machine-like aggregation from Richmond completely offset the difference in weight. Hampton opened the game by kicking off to Union who began to advance the ball. On second down Hucules in an attempt to circle end wrenched his knee. Here the pigslkin began to shift from side to side with both teams punting whenever their goal was threatened. Only twice was either goal line seriously endangered. In the second quarter Hampton, by continual drives by their full back Williams drove into Union territory at a rapid pace until the Union "Bulldogs" braced themselves and refused to let the plowing back go farther. After the beginning of the second half the Richmond soldiers charged with renewed vigor and were within twenty yards of the Seasiders's goal before they were halted. Hampton lost her best opportunity to score when Long allowed a pass from Nelson to be knocked from his hands by Cogbill, who broke up many attempted passes of the Hamptonons. Union's hope for a touchdown went gimme ing when the renowned Cogbill scored the goal dime. A long pass by Hampton at the close of the game brought a little confusion to the loyal Union rooters, but this was ended when Capt. Hucras raced over mid-field and halted the traveling Long on Union's eleven yard line. This onward march was checked when on the next play Ballard and McDonald broke through and tackled Williams in his tracks. The Whistle blew as Cogbill broke up a pass from Nelson to Lelo. The line-up was as follows: Union Hampton Taylor L. E. Long Ballard L. T. Scott McDonald L. G. Collins Walker C. Green Thompson R. G. Carey Chiles R. T. O'Brien Cogbill R. E. Bradley Hucles Q. Nelson McQuinn L. H. Campbell Howard R. H. J. W. Williams Williams F. G. D. Williams Subs. Union: Scott for Walker. Hampton: Love for Campbell; McClair for Collins. MISS HIBBETT ENTERTAINS.

The following letter from one of our soldiers now quartered in England and written to his former employer, will be of interest to our readers. My dear Mrs. Oversaw, and had a very pleasant trip. I have seen many interesting jobs. I have been in almost good health. Are you as busy with the Red Cross work as usual. I must admit that you are a true patriotic citizen. I have accomplished a great deal by being associated with you all, and together with my schooling. How is Mr. Herbert? How is he enjoying his French life? I have not been quite so fortunate. I suppose that I will get over there by spring. This is one more rainy country. It rains almost every day. There is no end to the mud. On our way through the States the Red Cros was very nice to us, they gave us fruits, cakes, cigarettes and good hot coffee. Gei I certainly did enjoy it throughout the States. The states much more interesting in the States than the old U. S. A. It is nearest place in the world. Give my love to Mary. I suppose she is still having fits over Lee. Tell her to not worry because the war is almost ended. I will be glad when it is ended. I am still working in the office. The rumor was out all over London and the camp that the war was ended. You can just judge for yourself how elated the boys were. I was some what elated myself. We are well fed over here. I read in "Empey's Over the Top" about the English black bread; so I have had the opportunity of eating some of it, but I like it very well. We were paid yesterday. We were paid in English money.
