ATTENDANCE AT SUMMER SES
SION OF STATE NORMAL
INCREASING.

Monday morning brought to the
State Normal host of new teachers
from different sections of the State.
Those teachers who came for two
weeks only, find that the whole time
is scarcely sufficient to take in the
instruction and pleasure of the
course.
DIR. C. V. Roman addressed the
teachers on Books. The teacher,
he said, should know books, should
know his people and know himself,
for by so doing, he would know the
truth and the truth shall make him
free. He was accompanied by DR..
j. H. Hale, the school physician, who
spoke Of the necessity Of perfect
health among the teachers and the
teaching of its laws to the students.
The frequent chapel talks by repre-
sentative men and women of both
races, is just one of the many eX-
cellent features of the summer ses-
sion. Other features will be trips
to various points of interest in and
about Nashville.

The Grand Lodge of the Knights of
Pythias will convene in this city on
the Sth of July and will conduct
four days session. In the past the
Grand Lodge has only held three
days session, but the work has in
creased to that point where it has be-
come necessary to add another day in
order that the work may be COM
pleted without being so laborious on
officials and committees.
Preparation has been going on
steadily in this city preparatory to
the entertainment OF the Grand Lodge
when it convenes, but on every hand
now there is evidence OF the finishing
touches. No place presents greater
evidence of this than the Pythian
Temple on Fifth avenue, North. The
building is being overhauled inside
and out, and the touch of the painters
brush has added much to the general
appearance Of the surroundings.
When the Grand Lodge convenes
the sessions will be held in the Odd
Fellow Auditorium, but the Pythian
Temple will be recognized as the head
quarters. Special committee meetings
will be held in this hall as it is only
few yards from the auditorium. It
is expected that large delegation
will be present; by careful estimation
close on to 1000 delegates will, be
here and added to these visitors will
swell the number TO 5000. This will
mean that Nashville will nave for her
guest people from every point in the
state. Among them will be the lead
ing men and women Of the race.
1t is intimated that the Pythian
Grand Lodge this year will take up
some definite steps that have been un-
der consideration for several years,
one among them being the plans to-
ward the establishing Of widow and
orphan home. 1t is known that Grand
Chancellor Crawford. of this city, is
highly in favor of such movement.
In speaking to a Globe representative
recently, he said that he felt that
every organization, when 1t met,
should have some definite purpose in
view, and that he considered the
establishment of the orphanage with
a farm and other industrial features
to be the wisest step that could be
taken by the Pythians in Tennessee.
| As has been said this matter has
been discussed among the Pythians
for several years, but it is believed
that at this session some definite step
will be taken.

after the interest of these conditions

go into the country as far as they

Mrs. Booker T. Washington, Presi-

the clubs of the city Thursday even
ing, June 18th, at the First Baptist
Church. A crowded house greeted

"All Hail the Power of Jesus

was offered by Mrs, Geo. Haynes.

Various Activities OF the Club" The
speaker said: 4rL
The. first real national affair col
ored women held was in 1895, Before
that time various clubs had been or
gani ed as early as the co.'s. White
wome nof New England had organ
ICED, but no effort on the part OF col
ored women had been made. A let
ter was once written to a colored
woman in Boston asking whether or
no the colored women were lacking
in morality. This letter was lost and
in some way got into the hands OF a
newspaper man, who published 1t 10
suit himself and verified the state
ment. Some of the women OF Bos-
ton met on the street and discussed
this question; it was decided that
what the paper stated was true and
they organized a club to do all they
could toward moral development OF
the race. The white womens CLUB
was known as the National Fedora
tion. so in order to distinguish ours
from the white we inserted the word
Association" thus having The Asso-
citation Of National Federation.
"What the Association Stands For
The Association stands for unity,
city federation and to prove that we
possess morality. At the meeting IN
Hampton last year it was reported
that we had 1850 clubs, OF when
number SO were State Federation and
one CT two "Sessional Federation.

clubs valued ct $13,3S2.25. Some oil

School teachers should come in

and if there is not a mothers meet

the mothers together and organize

similar subjects, as what our chill
dren shall wear, what they shall eat
and where they shall go, are dis

The reason Tacoma is on the
map, so far as high grade enter
tainment is concerned, is due
to the bunch that Bernice E.
Newell, a Tacoma newspaper
woman, had about four years ago.
And because Mrs. Newell had
the courage of her convictions
and believed that Tacoma could
muster up a little artistic pride,
we now have as good a line of
artists coming to us as the high
browed enthusiasts of the art
centers of the effete east enjoys.
Tacoma patronises these lofty
stars very well, Mrs. Newell says,
but not we'll enough.
You see, our young woman I'M
pressario has to give up a cash
guarantee on her artists, and
sometimes it's a narrow squeak
to make the box office meet the
hefty pay envelope of the visiting
artists.
But Tacoma is growing In ap-
probation, and maybe our young
woman impressario will get rich
yet.
Here are some of the warblers
and so on that we've heard To-
cally because of Mrs. NewelI's
course: Madam Schumann Heink,

ski, Bernice de Pasquali, Tetraz-
