Y. M. c. A.

The Y. M. C. A. THANKSGIVING re-
ception that the Committee of Man
agement voted to have at the s..
Andrews Presbyterian Church, has
been deferred on account of the
strenuous work on the part of the
secretary, the chairman and others
in connection with the $4,000 cam
paign which was pitched about two
weeks ago for the Central Associa-
ton.
DR.. Bruner, from Chicago, spoke
to the men last Sunday. His mes
sage was well received by all the
men present. Next Sunday at 4:3O
D. m, Dr. W. NJ Anderson. of Dallas,
Texas, will speak to the Mems
Meeting. All men are urged to be
present. Dr. Anderson some years
ago was engaged in pastoral work
here in the city The men who
knew him then will be glad to greet
him at the meeting Sunday
The plan outlined by the Commit
tee of Management at the meeting
November 18th, for arousing an adj
ditional interest among the clergy
men is being pushed as rapidly and
efficiently as possible. Many of the
pastors are not able 10 use the fifth
Sunday for the special benefit of the
Y. NJ. G.. A., as was asked, but will
turn their churches over some the
second Sunday in December and 9TH
ers later. 1t is encouraging to note
tie growing interest among the min
listers for this special line of work
for men and boys.
Hon ]. c. Napier delivered an adj
dress to a packed house in West
Nashville last Sunday at 3 p. m. The
meeting was worked up by Mr.. VIM.
Crawford, Mr. John Cook and Mr.
John Adams. Mr.. Napier's address
was about an hour in length and in
teresting from start to finish. Never
did a West Nashville audience listen
to a more enthusiastic Y. NJ. G. A.
message There are those who seem
to think that Mr.. Napier's interest
in his people, regardless of class or
condition, is even keener now than
it was before his brief sojourn in
\ Washington as Register of the U. S
Treasury.

AT REST.

Mrs. Josie Harding Clemens died
at the home of her mother, Mrs. Ten
ME Harding on Elm Hill avenue
September the 18th after four months
of suffering. God touched her
weary frame and she sleeps, the
angels in heaven must have well
coined her up there. She wanted
to hear some old time song and she
was asked if the Lord called her; did
she think she would be saved; she
said, / am not afraid to die. Then
she fell asleep. She leaves two lovely
daughters, Alberta and Odessa who
will need the care of mother, but
God has promised to take care Of
the motherless children.

REFUSED TO INSURE NEGRO
PROPERTY.

Quite an excitement prevailed
among some of the residents of Nash
vile during the past two or three
weeks because of an announcement
by an insurance agency firm Of this
city that they had received instruc-
tons not to renew any insurance on
Negro property and to cancel that
insurance which they already had ON
property belonging to Negroes. This
announcement caused much uneasi-
ness on the part of some of the large
property owners of Nashville who
were carrying insurance and who
would naturally be effected by such
action. AS soon as the rumor gained
circulation quiet investigation was
made and it was found that a GER
tain fire insurance firm of this city
that has been in business for a num-
Der of years had received instructions
from their home Office to cancel poll
cies of Negro property and not to re-
insure any more.
No cause was given for the action
| except an off-handed statement that
they did not care for the business,
and this statement was made with
another statement that no other com
panies represented in Nashville would
/ insure.
It was the latter statement that
caused the small pandemonium that
reigned for a while. But further in
vestigation discloses that fact that the
last assertion was not true, that
there is one of the best and largest
insurance firms in Nashville inviting
the patronage of Negroes and guaran-
tees that they will put their policies
in as reliable and as safe companies
as can be found represented in Nash
vile for the risk involved.
The first person consulted as soon
as the announcement was made was
Mr.. Robert H. Fite, a member of the
firm of Dudley-Flte G. Company, wno
stated Eyes, we have heard that GER
tain companies or concerns in this
city were not insuring Negro prop
erty, and that they had received such
instructions from their home office
Only this week we have insured
quite a deal of property for people
whose policies had been cancelled as
result of this action on the part
of some of the agents. But we have
, never found an occasion in all of oui
. years of business to rue the day we
) have taken Negro risks, as we have
! found them very satisfactory.
, 81 do not care to use the names o.
; the parties whose firms refuse to take
' Negro insurance" continued Mr.. Fite
5 "as ! do not know the motive as
l signed" ..
There are Negro concerns in thi
city that carry unusually large poll
cies, and there are over forty-liv
thousand members of the race within
the incorporate limits OF the city. Pa
latial and splendid homes whose price
run up into the thousands belong t
2 these people, who will no doubt ap
preciate this announcement and vii
> be glad to learn that while one o
: two companies may have issued sucl
an order, it is possible for them t
obtain safe risks on their homes AM

rumor was groundless, but the cor
