Third Ward Civic Club.

Friday night of last week the voters
of the Cbird Ward organized what is
known ~ civic club. The prime
object for organizing this club at this
particular time was to interest the
voters in the election to be held in
next month; this no one will deny,
but the name Of the club means more
than the corraling of men to vote in
an election. We would not be under
stood as considering the coming cleo
ton as of little Importance, but we
do mean to say, and that with EN-
phasis, that a club organized for the
sole purpose Of getting men to vote
will not be Of much benefit to the peo-
pie.
When we speak of ciVics We think
of good citizens. We believe the men
who conceived the idea to name this
club in the Third Ward Civic Club
had in mind that Nashville would be
a better city if there were more
of her Negro citizens who were strong
men; men who would dare and do;
men who would condemn vice OF
every kind; men who would dare con
denim the low practice Of some white
men who are so low as to debauch
Negro women and then attempt to
set them up in Negro communities as
decent women. There may be organ
lied club in every block in the city
but until we reach the point where
we put virtue above pelf We will moi
be making any Roadway.
We hope the Third Ward club will
live after the election, and that the
men who compose it will stand for al
that is right and just That they viii
see that such a club has more to dt
than to vote at election time. Tha
such a club should work every da,
to make conditions better in tn
homes and in the community. The,
should realize that there is something
for the citizens of ward to do al
the time-that the evil one is Away
present to wreck home. This war
is pointed to as having IN it prou
and progressive citizenry, and right
so. They are proud of their homes
and they are endeavoring to improv
them in every way, but we wish t
warn them right here that in orde
to keep up the high standard tina
has been attained every attempt t
bring Into the community an undo
sirable thing or person must be me
with a resistance that knows no con
promise.
