We desire for publication in this
department any views or suggestions
by teachers, patrons. boards of educa-
ton, or trustees, relating to the public
school system, but no political discus
sions will be permitted
Here are some verses perhaps our
boys may enjoNreading:
The harder you're thrown, why the
higher you bounce,
Be proud of your blackened eye;
It isn't the fact that you're licked that
counts,
It's how did you fght-and why.
You're beaten to earth? Wei well,
what's that?
Come up with a smiling face,
It's nothing against you to fall down
fiat,
But to lie there-that's disgrace.
Oh, a troubles a toa or a troubles an
ounce,
Or a trouble is what you make it;
And it isn't the fact that you're hurt
that counts.
But only-how did you take it?
Death comes with a crawl or comes
with a pounce,
And whether he's slow or spry,
1t isn't the fact that you're dead that
counts,
But only-how did you die?
At the time of this writing the fol-
schools with address of a trus-
tee in each were in need of a teacher:
Gerrardstown Graded school, at
Gerrardstown; principal wanted. Ad-
dress d.. Gold Miller. Inwood, w. Va,
president of board of education.
Mt. Carmel, Gerrardstown district;
teacher wanted. Address Charles
Bailey, Glengary, w. Va.
Jones Spring. Gerrardstown dis
trict; teacher wanted. Address John
Wilson, Jones Spring, w. Va.
Sulphur Spring, Gefrardstown dis
trict: teacher wanted. Address Ben,
jamin Eyerhart, Jones Spring, w. Va.
Dry Run, Hedgesville district, grad
ed school %(soon); principal wanted.
dress George R. Sperow or A. H.
Walker, Dry Run Route, Martinsburg,
w. Va.
Smith Graded school, Gerrardstown
district; assistant wanted. Address
James H, Smith. Martinsburg, w. Va,
r. f. ID. No. l..
If the teacher would address those
given here and not the superintendent,
il would save a goodly amount of de-
lay to the teacher. If you have no
school watch up this department as
we will publish from time to time any
vacancies that may occur in the
of the county.

is actively engaged iii school work
again in Texas. 1t is said that he is
president of a school at Conroe, Tex.
The course of the Baptists toward the
establishment and erection Of this
much-needed theological seminary is
being watched with no little interest.
Should they fail to do any substantial
work to this end before the meeting of
the next National Convention which
is to be held in Washington, D. c., 1t
is thought that a decided attack will
be made upon the entire board by the
delegates. 1t is conceded that there
is but little time in which to do real
work and that this little time is being
h~opelessly wasted.

Mrs. R. Mitchell left last Monday
evening for Chicago to attend the FL

Last Sunday was a great day for
church going in Bowling Green. All
the churches report large attendance,
good services and good collections.
The temperance movement is on q
boom in this city. From all appear.
ances at present it seems that saloons
must go, and that Bowling Green

MRS. BRoueHToN COMING HOME

Mrs. Virginia w. Broughton, presi-
dent of the State ". G. T. u, will be
in Nashville two Sundays during
March. 1t is her intention while here
to have two large rallies in the inter-
est of the w. G. T. U. work and the
coming National Convention. OF
course Mrs. Broughton will go to
Rome with the party of delegates that
will sail in April, but it is her inten-
ton before going abroad, to have all
her plans laid for this coming con-
vention. A very deserving honor has
been conferred upon her in represent
ing the w. C. T. u. abroad. She will
bear very becomingly the distinction
of being the first Negro woman from
Tennessee to have the privilege of
such abroad. The state secretary of
the w. G. T. U. stated that several
mass meetings were to be arranged at
such churches as could be secured on
Easter Sunday in the interest of this
work.

BAPTIST EDUCATIONAL BOARD.

TO Meet in Nashville.
1t has just been learned that the
Educational Board OF the National
Baptist Convention has been called to
meet in Nashville, Tenn, on May II.
The purpose of this meeting, as stated
by the president, Rev. M. w. Gilbert,
of New York City, is to take under ad-
visement the election of a secretary,
or to have some expression from the
present secretary, Rev. David Abner,
Jr., of Texas, as to whether he intends
to serve or not. 1t will be remem.
bered that an article appeared in the
columns Of the Globe soon after the
National Convention, that the Nation
al Baptist Theological Seminary would
be located in Nashville. 1t was ex-
pected that the Educational Board
would begin work at once raising
funds for the erection Of this great
school; but as yet nothing in a sub
stantial way has been done towards
the opening of the school, notwith-
standing the Home Mission Society,
of New York, had agreed to supple
ment a certain amount to be raised
through the Educational Board. That
Nashville needs all the schools that
can be located here is not denied. 1t
is a drawing force as an educational
center from the fact that some of the
early schools were located in this city
soon after the Emancipation. At the
meeting of the Educational Board 1t
is expected that at least thirty of the
most prominent ministers of the Bap-
fist denomination will be present, as
it is learned the board constitutes a
local board from the state of Tennes-
see, as we'll as a national board, with
a member from each state in the
Union. DR.. Gilbert, the chairman of
he Educational Board proper, has is
sued the call for this meeting. Just
what action will be taken is not
known, but it is known that the new
secretary that was elected to take the
lace of Prof. Jno, r, Wilson, who had
headquarters in Nashville at one time,

ONLY coLoRED GIRL IN CHORUS.

It is learned from authorized
sources that at the recent chorus OF
149 voices, which was presented at
the Oberlin Conservatory of Music,
only one colored girl was to be seen
in the crowd. Notwithstanding there
were possibly two-score worthy
Young girls from North and South at
tending this great Conservatory, the
manager did not see the advantage
or could not feel sure that their voices
would be an addition to the chorus.
Nashville should feel honored that
Miss Lady Emma Louise Phillips was
the girl of color in the chorus, and 1t
is said that she made good. Notwith-
standing her short time in this Con-
servatory, she has become at once a
favorite.

A ESCAPE.

A few nights ago while Mr.. Ed
Kennedy, the elder son Of j. B. Ken
nedy, the livery stable man on Third
avenue, North, was driving home. he
had possibly the narrowest escape
from being instantly killed that has
ever come to a young man within
recent years. But being naturally cool
and deliberate, and having at all
times presence of mind, especially
with wild horses, he saved his life,

CYCLES UNDER TEST
IN RELIABILITY RACE
tesssesssz.s;::::.:;:;.,, -,

Doubtless the most important test to
which motorcycles have as yet been sub
jected will be the reliability contest pro-
NOTED by the Chicago Motorcycle club,
which will be run on November rs. y and
2S. On the same days and over the same
course a reliability test for motor cars
will take place, so the little fellows are
to be pitted squarely against their big
brothers, and under fully as rigorous
conditions. The rules provide for the seal
ing of all detachable parts of the motor
cycles while in former tests only the
mufflers have been sealed. The seals will
be inspected each morning and evening
and the route calls for 200 miles daily,
at speed rate of fifteen miles an hour.
Checking stations for the first days run
will be at Michigan City and South Bend.
The second days checking stations will
be Elgin and Rockford, and for the final
day Aurora and Ottawa.
Penalization will be made upon a credit
of 1000 points, with which each motorcycle
will begin the run. 1t is believed that
this test eminently fair to all, will dis
pose of the claim sometimes put forward
that motorcycles are not dependable for
long distances and sustained effort
1t is just as we'll to look the fact in the
face that the motorcycle is coming, on its
own merit, at rate that is scarcely ap-
preciated by those who are not watching
the game with both eyes. One man, who
has had much to do with the populariza-
ton of a we'll known machine, makes the
prediction that within two years there
will be as many motorcycles as motor
cars in America, and in four years he
expects TO see two motorcycles in this
country for every automobile.

WON ON GAME
YALE MEN GRABBED GOOD BETS
FROM NAsSAUANs
Princeton Graduate Lost Machine
When Tiger Was Trimmed, but
Refused to Throw in
Rugs in Car

NEW HAVEN. Conn. Nov. 20. Fabulous
sums were won by nervy and loyal Yale en-
thusasts during the football game with
Princeton week ago.
Some of the wagers made between the halves
of the game were the most remarkable on rec
ord in any intercollegiate contest. Although che
betting closed when the game opened with
the odds 2 to / in favor of Yale, 1t slumped
as as the Tigers began to get the jump
or Yale, and it continued downward with
stock market rapidity until the half closed
with Princeton leading, 10 TO o. Wild chal-
lenges were then thrown out by the Princeton
rcoters during the intermlssion
A Princeton graduate, who had made for
tune in business in New York city, and who
came to the game in $4,000 automobile with
a party of friends, shouted IN bet Is to /
on the Tigers" This netted a Yale senior
who was sitting near, the words Of the Prince
ton man stinging him like lash in the face,
as he later told his classmates and he called
out
''In take a slice OF that for all I've got"
''How much have you got?" sneeringly re-
tcted the Princeton enthusiast
II have $500, but I'll put it up" retorted the
Yale senior.
.'In tell you what I'll do" said the New
Yorker, "Ill put up my automobile against
your 5000"
The money was placed in the hands of a
stakeholder together with the garage check

TRAINL0ADS OF AUTOS
ARE SHIPPED WEST

The entire exhibit of cars from the
Madison Square garden show were start
ed westward in two trainloads, each
train consisting of thirty freight cars
and each containing from two to four
automobiles.
This is the largest automobile shipment
ever made, or in fact the largest ship
ment of any one manufactured product
to be transported at one time over one
route.
The loading and forwarding of this
great number of machines was accom-
plished under arrangements previously
made by the traffic department of the
Licensed association; the facilities which
were offered the traffic department, max
ing 1t possible to load the entire lot of
automobiles in six hours and without
single case of damage.
In order that the work of handling
the cars at the other end may be facili-
tated the trains will arrive in Chicago
at two different points, thus avoiding
congestion and minimizing the possibil-
ity of damage through overcrowding,

BIcYcLlsT KNOCKED OFF HIS
WHEEL BY AN ANGRY DEER

Perhaps the most remarkable accident
that ever befell a bicyclist occurred a
few evenings ago, when Winfield B. Cor
ton of Sayville, L. l., was knocked of
his wheel by the onslaught of an antiered
buck on the highway near the Cutting
estate.
It is probable that the animal charged
upon the light, because. after young Cor
ton was knocked sprawling, the lamp
remained lit and the buck went after IL
a second time. After this it devoted a
little time to the wire fence at the side
of the road, and after several lunges at
the wire headed down the road at a
lively pace, leaving the much astonished
bicyclist still lying prone in the road:

BICYCLES WILL BE USED
AT MANY ARMY POSTS

FOLLOWING the example of the war Of
fees of Europe, the United States war
department will utilize bicycles for routine
army work to an extent scarcely contem-
Mated a few years ago. The bicycles to
he used will be similar to those employed
by the French mounted police.
The auartermaster generaPs department
has been authorized to furnish two bicy-
cles to each military post, and one addi-
tional bicycle to each battalion in excess
of two serving at the post when, in the
opinion of the quartermaster general,
conditions warrant such issue.

A Baltimore man who tours considera-

was to hold membership in the American
Automobile association. He replied;
1t is worth much more than $2 year
