New Year opportunItles

We are passing into the new year.
and as the old year with its sue
cesses and failures passes out Of our
memory and we set our faces on the
possibilities of the future. it is well
to stop long enough to consider what
it is possible to do in 1912 for the
best interest of all the people. One
thing that would be of great benefit
to the Negroes of Nashville and Ten
nessee would be to get together in
business, in public movements for

CHRISTMAS DISTRIBUTION.

st. Paul A. M. Il. Church was the
scene of great activity Thursday, De
cember 30th. Before the hour of 2
p. m. many were on hand with empty
baskets and anxious faces to receive
Christmas cheer and sunshine from
the Phyllis Wheatley Club. The
club ladies worked hard and earnestly
to have something substantial and
helpful for each one. Sixty we'll
flied baskets of groceries, dainties,
etc, were given out from the church
that afternoon. Since then enough
more has been distributed to reach
seventy-fve. Some of the baskets
went to families Of five and six chill
dren. We can ea,ily estimate that
more than 125 or $50 persons
including children have been
reached through this movement on
the part Of the club Beside the
baskets of food clothing, shoes, toys
candies and coal were given out One
old lady leaning upon her cane said
when her basket was given her
"Thank God for this basket of food
May God bless every soul who help
ed"
The club thanks the pastor and Of
fcia1 cabinet of st. Paul for the use
Of the church for this distribution
We are grateful to all who aided us
in any way to make this distribution
such a great success.

the general uplift of the people and
in whatever other way deemed ad-
visable for the general good. Con-
ditions in Nashville and Tennessee
are in excellent shape. Those men
who will work, have an opportunity
to make some kind of living. All
are not favored with good jobs, all
never will be; but every man can
find some kind of a job out of which
he can at least earn enough money
to buy something to eat few clothes
to wear and a little coal to make
fires.
Negroes are poor Of course, but
there are some things they must do
for themselves. It is not expected
that their efforts will amount to as
much as efforts put forth with the
same energy by people who have
more means, but the earnestness can
be as vigorous as that put forth by
any body, and the recipients of what
ever is done will be just as appre-
ciative as these people who receive
benefactions at the hands of the we'll
! TODD.
But little will be accomplished UNI
less there is united effort. There is
need for rescue home for the fallen.
We will never have one however, so
long as half dozen persons start
such an institution at the same time,
but the Negroes of Nashville are able
to support one rescue home, and the
preservation of society demands that
such be done. There is soon to be
| erected a Boys Reformatory for
white and black. This will be pub
lie institution. The Negroes should
feel it their duty, however, to at least
show an interest in that portion of
the institution that is to be erected
for the retention of black hayward
boys.
/ Many other things are on the plat
ter for the Negro if he viii only get
himself in shape to receive them. So
/ long as there continues a pickering
and jealousy, so long will those
| things that might be secured and uti-
lzed for the good of all the people,
go astray or to the benefit of other
people. One of the greatest oppor-
tunities the new year offers is an op.
portunity for an Improvement along
this line, and the longer this steI
is put off the farther will we be from
a solution of the many perplexins
difficulties that confront us.

FRIDAY, JANUARY 5, 1912.
The Globe Enlarged.

Beginning with this issue OF the
Globe the management has decided
to venture one step further on the
journalistic sea. For six years 1t
has been five-column, eight-page
paper Though small the Globe has
never, in a single instance, con-
tanned as much as one inch of patent
matter Our friends have often re-
ferred to the Globe as good little
paper," and some have chosen to re-
fer to it as that damn little old
Globe" but we have gone on in the
even tenor Of our way, doing the best
we could to give to our readers each
week in the year clean newspaper
filled UP with live, newsy matter.
We have endeavored to be faithful
and conscientious servants.
Since the first issue of this jour-
nal was presented to the public, two
of the original organizers have fal-
len asleep. We refer to the late j.
o. Battle, who was the first editor
and president of the Globe, and to
the late Chas. H. Burrill, who was
the first secretary and general ad-
visor. When these comrades had
passed away, only two were left, and
At appeared for while that 1t would
he impossible for them to continue
the publication under existing con-
ditions: but they felt that 1t woald
be unfair to the people, who have
so loyalty supported the Globe since
its beginning, to lay down the WORK
consequently new energy was III
iected into the project and deci
sion reached to continue in the field
Beginning with 1912 the Globe vii
A be bigger and better, but as cheaI
mas heretofore. We are still the Sc
wants of the people, and are read!
and willing to fight their cause a
all times. We have no higher ambi
ion than to fight for what is righ
nd just. We have no faForits
defend, neither have we an.
nsnemies to fight. 1t is a matter 0
ustice, pure and simple, and W
eel that the truth should be toll
regardless of who it hurts. AS lon
as we are telling the truth, we know
the people will be on our side. w
~ know there are many uncertaintie
in the newspaper business; on tn
other hand, we also know that tn
people will appreciate whatever u
done for them; with that assuranc
we have ventured to increase our el
penses and obligations that the pee
ple of Nashville and Tennessee ma
be benefited thereby. We mos
heartily thank every one for the SUI
port given in the past, for wltnou
vour aid we could not have succeed
Cd. and we take this step with hop
IN broaden our scope OF ln1uenc
and usefulness. We most earnestl
solicit continuance of your patrol
age your influence and your syn
pathy. We have made mistakes
is true, had we not, you would nj
consider us the like Of other huma
beings that inhabit this world, D'
we wish to assure one and all tn
L.
our mistakes have been of the hei
and not of the heart.
We shall endeavor in the future
we have in the past to be fair
wards all and to show special fayo
to none. With this as our mott
we present you this week 81

price we have given you ny
