Notable among the Baptist sun
day-school workers who returned
from the Sunday-school Congress
and took advantage Of the stopover
privileges offered by Nashville was
the Rev. J. w. Nurse, pastor OF the
st. Stevens Baptist Church, Kansas
CITY Mo. DR.. Hurseis looked ppon
by the Baptists as one of theiF-most
successful pastors in the West. His
record is marvellous, from the fact
that he has been able to build up one
of the most loyal, as well as one OF
the largest, congregations in Kansas
City, Mo.
A Globe reporter learned that six
teen years ago he went to Kansas
City as a day laborer, running from
call to the ministry, but was finally
overtaken, and begun his work in
that city. The story, as rehearsed
to the Globe representative is almost
as strange as fiction itself. While
he was a day laborer on the streets
of Kansas, he began his ministerial
career, beginning in small tent and
gradually working himself up until
the entire twin city now feels the
force of his organizing ability, etc
DR.. Nurse is a native Tennessean
having been reared in Upton Coun
ty. While here, he was the guest
Of Secretary Boyd, of the Publishing
Board. He left Wednesday evening
for his home, going via st. Louis

Sunday at their hall on Cedar street
Rev. A. Brooks, of Pulaski, Tenn

organization is doing in Nashvil, :
At the conclusion Of his remarks,

the work that has been done by the
Association since the last sermon

provements that are being made at

Reports of contributions made to
Mr. Galloway yet to be heard from
In submitting this report ! wish to
say that while it is true that the
Normal women have written no great
books, they have painted no famous
pictures, nor have they any startling
inventions to their credit. but they
have been un6agging in their efforts
to do what has been of vastly more
importance to us as a race. They
have been busy implanting in the
minds of Negro children their first
impressions of religious patriotism
and industry, and while the chapters
they have made in the history of
Fisk University may not be striking
ly glorious the Fisk women Of yester
day have done what they could.
When you women Of today and to
morrow are launched into the world
each to take part in its labors, an
xiety and trials, you will find the
woman of yesterday stil there al
her post Of duty
Working, living for those who love
her,
For all that's good and true,
For Fisk and God above her,
And the good that she can do
