Bryan is. lie cannot captivate men

have wonderful record behind him,
he would not be picked out as prest-

Platform ability. His speeches read
quite as well as they "listen." One
could hear him speak and pick out
flaws in his logic as he went along,
If there were any.
Well for the brain that directed his
efforts. and well for the native hon
esty and self-respect that never en-
tertalned a selfish doubt or a dis
creditab.e motive, there is no flaw in
his logic.

home support.
He is honest for he is running on
record crowded with achievements
that have already passed the scrutiny
Of his enemies. Therein lies Tafts
superiority. II hes always been con-

MAY FESTIVAL.

The first annual May festival and
carnival, for which such extensive
preparations had been made, began
Monday morning under the most IA
vorable circumstances. Large crowds
of people thronged the streets wait
ing for the magnificent street parade
that had been promised. The crowd
was not at all disappointed, as the
parade was a creditable one. 1t formed
on the East Side and passed through
the principal thoroughfares of East
Nashville and Nashville proper.
There was a large number of deco
rated vehicles, brass band citizens
in carriages and business firms with
display floats. They halted at Ath-
letic Park, where a specially prepared
program, consisting of various amuse-
ments and competitive athletic games,
was carried out. But before the aft
ernoon had passed, a steady down
pour of rain began and continued
throughout, preventing the exercises
and forcing the management to aban-
don the nights program. Hence
there was nothing Monday night.
Outside of the interruption caused by
the rain, the May festival and carni-
val was decided success.
Mrs. e. H. Liner and Mrs. Chas.
Thorne were awarded the first prize
which was a beautiful lamp costing

cHILDREN's DAY.
SUNDAY, JUNE IA, TO BE FIT
TlNGLY OBSERVED.
Children All Over the United States
Will Observe This Celebration
with a Specially Prepared
Program for the Co..
casion.

Program for the Co..
casion.
The question has often been asked
by people, especially those who pay
little or no attention to the observ-
ance of Children's Day (and this rule
is not confined solely to the people
who do not attend church, but is to
be found among people who are
church-workers), What is Children's
Day?" The question can be an
swered in but one way. The SIMPLE
ity of the answer adds Importance to
the occasion. Children's Day proper
is day set apart in which every per-
son becomes a child again and goes
back as near as possible to child
hood days, observing as it were,
this general holiday that is almost
universal among the Christian people.
Most of the churches convert them
selves into veritable Sunday-school,
giving over the entire day, or a bet
ter part of it, to listening to the rem
dition of an deliberately prepared pro
gram in which the children take the
leading part. Every one has been a
child at some time; everybody can
boast of being somebody's child, and
to this end a special program has
been arranged for the observance of
the day. Sunday, June IA, has been
set apart for the great "Children's
Day of 1908" 1t is the second Sun
day in June. So in keeping with its
custom, the National Baptist Pub
fishing Board has had it's Concert
Quarterly editor, Mrs. Lula J. Boyd
Landers, prepare special program
for the occasion.
These programs are now ready for
distribution. The program abounds
in choice music and appropriate Sc
lections, all of which are conveniently
arranged. 1t is accompanied with
supplement, on which will be found
the recitations and the dialogues. The
music is especially rich, not difficult
music, but just simple, plain, child
ish and sacred music. especially ar
ranged for such occasions.
The Children's Day program is a
siXteen-page pamphlet. This year it
is printed in an olive-green color
They can be had by any Sunday
school that will send in a request for
them. There are no charges; they
are sent free. The only request Dr.
r. H. Boyd has made is that each
Sunday-school will send in collection
to his board for missionary purposes
"a little money to assist in spreading
the gospel on home fields. More
than one hundred thousand copies of
these magnificent programs will be
distributed in all parts of the world.
One unique feature of the program
over preceding years is that it Of
fers three great prizes to be given
away to the Sunday-schools There
will be $1,000 worth of prizes
The first prize will be a Teachers
Sunday-school Library of eighteen
volumes worth $21. There will be
thirty-five of these-one for each
state. Hence the Sunday-school in
each state sending in the largest
Childrens Day donation will receive
one set of the first prize of books.
The second prize will be worth $3.50
It consists of twenty-one volumes, to
be awarded the school in each state
sending the highest amount over
$500. The third prize will be worth

When you have a cold you may be
sure that it has been caused indirectly
by constipation and consequently you
must first of all take something to move
the bowels. This is what has made
Kennedy's Laxative Cough Syrup so
successful and so generally demanded.
1t does not constipate like most of the
old fashioned cough cures, but on the
other hand it gently moves the bowels
and at the same time heals irritation
