The Congress.


The seventh annual session Of the
Sunday-School Congress is in session
at Tuskegee Institute, Alabama, this
week. The attendance this year will
be by far larger than it has been
in any previous year Those who
have watched this organization have
observed that it has grown largely in
numbers and that the increase OF
members has given greater enthusi-
asm, with which there has grown
a national influence, and the Con
gress is now recognized as one of
the great forces for the uplift OF the
Negro people of this country
The meeting this year will go a long
way toward convincing the skeptical,
that the young Negro people must
have organizations of their own
There are any number of movements
that have been started by whites in
which the Negroes are asked to join,
but in every instance the race preiu-
dice hugaboo rises up to destroy the
influence for good
The National Christian Endeayor,
the Mems Forward Movement, the
Baraca, and such organizations are
noble and grand; but these organiza-
tiCns cannot be of benefit to all the
people unless they are moved from
section to section of the country,
where the nationl meetings can af-
feet the communities. Therefore,
when such organizations must come
South and in fact, wherever they
meet, the Negro who participates in
them feels the sting of the American
white mans race prejudice. If ne Wis
its them in the North he cannot find
place to board If in the South, he
is not admitted to the public halls.
4 Consequently, it is absolutely neces-
sary that he organize such movements
of his own and conduct them under
his own vine and fig tree.
DR.. r. H. Boyd, the organizer Of the
Sunday-School Congress, had felt the
pangs of the white mans prejudice
and determined to provide for the
young Negro Baptists OF this country;
4 he therefore formed an organization
of their own, which means perma
nent and far-reaching development
of the young and religious minds
In mentioning the Congress it must
not be overlooked that Rev. H. A
Boyd, the untiring Secretary. has al
ways been a great force in the deyel
opment of the organization, and d
him largely belongs the credit Tor the
splendid arrangements that are Sc
cured from year to year for the large
crowds that gather to participate ir
these meetings.

Absolute seareaatIon ImpOssIble

Absolute Segregation Impossible.
There are some men in this city
who are inclined to the opinion that
all Of the Negro citizens within few
years will be segregated in Northwest
Nashville. Some of the closest stu
dents in Civic Improvements are
known TO be of that opinion. To be
more specific, they say the territory
bounded on the east by Eighth ave
nue. and on the south by Cedar street
will take in practically all the Ne
groes in Nashville. The gentlemen
must be given credit for their lib
crafty in allotting the territory, but
their conclusions are as absurd as
they are inconsistent. The day will
never come when all the Negro citi-
zens in Nashville will be located in
the territory described above.
1t is true that Negroes are buying
homes in Northwest Nashville at a
rapid rate. And 1t is evident that in
course of time all of the property in
the Third Ward and a great portion
of the Wards contiguous thereto will
be owned by them, but a large
majority of that territory is &C.
cupied by them now, and, in fact,
beginning at point a few yards west
of the Capitol and extending through
a northwesterly direction, Negroes Oc-
cupy large majority OF the houses
in that section of the city; but this
number of Negroes does not const-
tute a third of the Negro population
of the city, and it would be absolutely
impossible to comfortably house them
in the territory described.
On the other hand, Negroes are buy
ing homes in other sections of the
city as well as northwest Nashville,
and while numbers are locating in the
northwest, there are great numbers
who already own their homes in 9th
er sections, and have owned them
there tor years, and they snow no in
clination whatever to change loca-
tons.
Nashville Negroes with clear minds
and ambitions have gone on for many
years segregating themselves. ANY
man with an ounce of sense wants to
be friendly with his next-door neigh
Dor; and Negroes know that if they
are to be friendly with their neigh
bors, those neighbors must be black
people Consequently they do not seek
to buy homes in white communities
and all Of them do not choose to 10
cate in one part of the city. They
never have, and never will, and il
spite of all of the calculations of oul
white friends who are so deeply inter
ested in the Negroes welfare, the day
will never come when there will b.
a black Nashville and a white Nash
vile.

The Spirit of Giving.

No people can be strong and indie
pendent who are close-fsted. We are
told in Holy Writ that 1T is more
blessed to give than to receive" But
previous conditions and later indul-
gences have made the Negroes Of
America a people who believe it is
more blessed to receive than to give.
Consequently it is a slow matter to
induce Negroes to give literally to a
public cause. They complain that
they are not able to give. But they
forget that Christ gave the widow
more credit for her mite than he did
the RICH who gave much It is there
fore the spirit in which the gift is
made which counts.
Negroes are poor, it is true,
but every one is able to give
a little something to any wor,
thy cause. It is not perceptible just
what the people can do until they try;
but when a united effort is made, and
all decide to do what they can the
many little mites put together will
make one big whole. The spirit of
giving is a commendable one. It brings
happiness to those that possess 1t.
It gives confidence to the individual
and also to the community for II
every man In a community feels that
he can do something for himself and

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

cure deafness, and that is by con-

caused by an inhamed condition of
the mucous lining of the Eusta-

inhamed you have q rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed, Deafness
is the result, and unless the inham-
