Mrs. G. L. Jackson, a state delegate
to the National Federation at Louis
Vile, and also a representative from
the Phyllis Wheatley Club. read a
very interesting paper, subject,
"Woman's Opportunity to Help
Woman" Thursday evening at the
mammoth Armory building, corner of
Sixth and Walnut streets. Mrs. Jack
sons paper was well prepared and
Rad in her characteristic earnest
style.
The Phyllis Weatley Club. Of which
Mrs. Jackson is president, enjoys the
distinction of having entertained The
National Association of Colored Wom-
ems Clubs in their first meeting at
Nashville, Tenn, in 1897, when Mrs,
Mary Church Terrell presided.
The meeting at Louisville was one
of great interest and help, and all del.
egates returned home with new zeal
for greater work.
Nashville was we'll represented and
Tennessee showed great growth in the
past two years.

ORGANIZATION TO BE EFFECTED.

The Sunday-school superintendent,
teachers and officers of the city met
at Mt. Olive Baptist Church last Sun
day afternoon and discuss plans for
the betterment of the Sunday-schools
throughout the city. Rev. 7. j. Lew
is, of the Mt. Olive Baptist Sunday
School, acted as master of ceremo-
MES. After song service he explained
the nature of the meeting and led
the discussion, criticising the Mt.
Olive Sunday-School, in connection
with the other schools or the city, for
it's small attendance, comparative to
the number of children in the city who
do not attend anybody's school.
Others made interesting talks.
They planned to organize a Sunday
school teachers and teachers insti-
tute for the purpose or bringing the
Sunday-school workers of the city to-
gether quarterly at some of the va
rious churches where they will make
reports, hear addresses from the lead
ing ministers and papers on the Sun
d~ay-school work. This promises to be
a great organization for the city Of
Nashville. Watch the Globe for the
time and place of the next meeting.

SEMl-CENTENNIAL FOR T
WEST.

1t appears that the action of Con-
gress in failing to approve the bill
making appropriation for the SemiICen-
tennial has not at all dampened the
ardor of the people of the Great West.
Spokane, Wash, or at least the state
of Washington, is making every pos
sible bid, offering fiattering induce
ments for the proposed celebration to
come to the Great West. The follow

can raise over a million dollars in
the next year throughout the country
from loyal Negroes that are interested
in the Exposition, also many State

CoRRECTs ERROR.
Editor Nashville Globe:

4NAeC NNAO MY NlObCs
Dear Sir: In the notice which you
gave of the death of my brother, H. P.
Morris, you stated that he left a wife
and two children, which is an error.
Otherwise the report is correct, ex.
cept that he was stricken on Thurs
day night and died on Saturday night.
My brother had been married, but
his wife preceded him to the sweet
beyond just two years and sixteen
days. There was no issue to their
union, which was a happy one during
the many years that they were to-
gether.
I thank you very mucn for the no
tice which you gave about his death.
Very truly yours,
E. c. MORRIS.

AMUCAL PROGRAM and A HIGH CLASS LECTURE, BENEFICIAL TO CITIZENS OF NASHVILLE.

portions into which the Appalachian Exposition
has developed will be discussed. It will be his
aim to show by the representation Of the race at
this Exposition, that the Negro is alive to every
interest that adds to the progress of the race.
Governments, cities, states and counties are all
making excellent exhibits and, of course, the Nc
gro must be represented. The management So
licits everything in the way of exhibits, coming
under the heads of forestry, mining, agriculture,
horticulture, mechanics, manufacturing, com
merce, etc., also national, government, state, city
and county exhibits will be much in evidence.
The amusement line has not been neglected.
Every day will be a gala day and every night will
be a feature night. There will be a~lluring attrac-
tons for all.
On the Exposition grounds there are five ex-
cellent buildings, the beauty of which has not been
surpassed by any in the Southland.
The railroads, at their recent meeting held az
the Waldorf-Astoria, in New York, accorded the
loves rates ever given to an Exposition. The
coach rates will be approximately one cent per
mile, with a small margin in addition. The rates
are so low that every man, woman and child
should endeavor to at least visit the exposition
once, where more can be seen than can be learned
by travelling for years.
DR.. Green is working z~ealously to have the Ne
grC race make a good showing. In his address
TO the citizens of Nashville he will endeavor to
explain the mission of the Appalachian EXPOSE
ton and to show wherein it offers great oppor-
tunities to the Negro of the South.
The program will begin at 8 o'clock, sharp. Adj

Appreciative Of the importance of the move
ment, the citizens of Nashville are taking an ac-

'Remember, girls, that your faces
really matter little or nothing. TIC
preserve for long time the illusion
that you are as fresh as the morning
and to show off dress to the best ad'
vantage, You should study your bodies
above everything else and become
mistress of the art of movement and
charm. Never allow yourself to be.

keep in good health and keep your
minds keen, and, above all, don't be.
come round-shouldefed and crooked
by constantly sitting in one position
for hours playing bridge. Take plenty
of fresh air and exercise and live as
life ought to be lived"

CARE OF THE SUMMER SUIT
Home underins Thing That Is
Worthy of the Most Careful
Attention.

1t is we'll worth while to pay care.
full attention to the home laundering
of summer suits With a little care
they can be kept like new after each
washing. In the first place, the water
should be tepid and the soap not al
lowed to touch the goods. Each piece
should be washed and rinsed and hung
up in the shade on the wrong side be-
fore starting another. The starch
should be thin-boiled, but not too hot.
and after starching each piece should
be wrapped in clean sheet or towel
and ironed upon the wrong side as
soon as possible.
Old housekeepers say that linen
suits should be washed in water that
has had quart bag of hay or bran
boiled in it, This will take the place
of starch. A handful of salt or a lit
Ne OK gall added sets the color, and
the latter is sure to brighten yellow
and purple and always makes green
look better.

veins are in satin stitch slightly raised
by padding 2s1rmed by two or three
rows of running. The work is done
in green embroidery silk of deeper
shade than the silk used in the ap-
plique.
When the embroidery is finished, if
necessary iron the back; it must be
placed right side down on thick
blanket, then ironed over cloth.
To make up the sachet, turn in the
edges, then line with white quilted
satin, the edges of which may be
turned in also and sl1p-stitched to
MORE; finish the edge with a pretty
silk cord that should be arranged in
loops at each corner; sew ribbon on
each end that is tied in two bows to
keep the sachet closed.

IN Exquisite Combination.

/ saw an exquisite frock recently in
combination Of black lace and ivory
white chiffon cloth. 1t made me think
of the possibilities two black lace
scarfs have. The entire gown was Of
white, with a panel overdress in black
lace.
Now, with two soarfs at woman's
disposal the first could be cut in two
evenly and arranged to fall from the
bust, ore strip on either side of the
center front, the border coming at the
lower edge The strip in the back
would be simple and longer than
those in the front. A jet belt could
be added and The panels held down at
intervals with small jet ornaments.
The lace cut from the second scarf
could form the sleeve drapery.
