senting the professions all turned GU
en- masse to honor one of their nobl,
sons. Since Murfreesboro is the home
of Rev. Watkins, and the lodge which
so auspiciously honored him is The
one in which he began his work with
the Association, it was right that he
should have begun his series of annual
visits here.
The meeting was opened by Mrs
Augusta Miller, the local president
Too much praise can not be said of
her for the able and business-like man
ner with which she Dresides over the
work of the organization. She re-
counted in glowing terms the work
of the Association and urged upon her
auditors the necessity Of the combin-
ing of the efforts of the masses and
urged that the people give their sup
port to all the enterprises conducted
by the race.
She then introduced Mr.. H. G. Chill
dress, president of lodge No. 6, who
spoke interestingly Of the work that
was being done and gave strong en-
phasis to the plea for the support of
all businesses conducted by colored
people.
The President next introduced Rev.
w. Lillard, who introduced the
distinguished guest of the evening.
Rev. w. Lillard spoke nobly of Rev.
Watkins, his long acquaintance with
him, his loyalty to his race and the
great work he has done for the work
ing people.
The browning event came when Rev.
Watkins arose to speak. The ap-
plause was deafening; Rev. Watkins
was never in better form, and doubt
less the most eventful period of his
life was when he faced the veritable
sea of faces on this occasion. He
thanked the reception committee for
the honor done him; he gave an in
teresting history of the beginning of
the organization, its growth and the
sixteen years of service he had seen
in its work.
He referred pathetically to the ten
der sare of his mother and said that
whatever he had accomplished in life
was due her teachings and prayer for
his success.
There were frequent outbursts of
'%nrlause as he spoke and at the con
clusion of his address many we're the
oncOmiums given him. The audience
rose and sang Grown Him Lord Of
ALL" after which all were invited to
partake Of a delightful menu.
The committee in charge were Mrs.
BERTHE Coleman, Misses Mary Ramsey,
Pearl Hayne and Jennie Hancock.
