Road to Happiness

Be amiable, cheerful and good natured
and you are much more likely to be
happy. You will find this difficult, if
not impossible, however, when you are
constantly troubled with constipation.

AT LAST.

AT last, the Tennessean. and Ameri-
can has had its eyes opened to the
harsh treatment accorded the Negroes
of Nashville by policemen. We are
truly glad, that the morning paper has
seen the light. Harshness, and uncall-
ed for oppression should cease. If the
Negro carries his grievances to the
City Commission the verdict is always
exoneration for the offending officer
There has never been any punishment,
not even a reprimand dealt out to any
officer for mistredtment OF Negroes.
The Negro citizens of Nashville, are
in the main law-abiding, industrious
mad have long borne the indignities
heaped upon them, but seeing no hope
for a cessation of abuse they are leav-
ing for more congenial climes. Right
here we wish to congratulate Mr.. Ben
January, and the Cooperative Club for
putting the issue squarely before the
white commercial organizations Of
Nashville, and especially Mr.. January
! for his heart-to-heart talk with the
manager Of the Tennessean and Amer
can. Ben has done more for the Ne
groes of Nashville, than any of these
loud mouth spouters who claim thu
earth and the fullness thereof.

few OF us viii he ready hereafter to
revise our estimates Of him. Yet there
is nothing strange or obscure about
this man. All his acts have been in
tensely human; in fact, humaneness
is the keynote Of the genius and char
aeter of Theodore Roosevelt If the
lineage of Roosevelt could be traced
back to the cave jewellers We think
we should find his prehistoric proge'
nitors fighting with massive clubs
and the largest bones they could lay
hands on. Switches and ribs would not
have sufficed them.
We believe that at the end Of this
war the historian will be able to fix
for all time the place OF Theodore
Roosevelt. In a world sense that place
may be above that Of Lincoln. We say
this with due care and reverence for
the memory of the man who, more
than any other, bore the SORROWS of
the war for human freedom.
II fate shall so decree that Col
Roosevelt shall bear the American flag
to the firing line in France he will
become national idol in that war torn
country and in England, taking his
place among their own revered immor
tails. Now would this be altogether de
pendent on a decision OF the conflict
favorable to them, for unless all ouI
cherished ideas of herolsm founded or
virtue and courage shall perish as a
result of this speechless affliction Of
Prussianism, mankind will continue tt
erect its monuments.
From what at times seemed to BIT
dabbling in small politics and Other
pursuits for which the masses had bu
little patience, Theodore Roosevelt has
redeemed himself to the uttermost. i
is doubtful whether any act of his il
the future will be able to separate hin
from this last and best redemption.
Today, wherever democracy is loveC
and held sacred no name Is uttered
with more pride and emotions of pa
triotism than that of Theodore Roose
welt.

He That Hath An Ear
Let Him Hear!
Rev. ]. P. Robinson, D. D.,

This expression or sentence like
many made and said sounds lightly
but when taken into consideration
is as weighty as time itself. Men
and women, official and unofficial are
hurting the word broadcast to the
people all over the American conti-
nent to prepare to feed themselves,
but strange to say thousands are
asleep and seem as though they can
not be awakened. But there is an
enemy of mankind that never fails to
awake mankind, and unless man is
prepared to meet him and fully pre-
pared to do so ruin is sure to over
take him. His name is HUNGER.
Once he enters the throat, he never
leaves the system until the body is
satisfied. But when satisfaction can
not be given it is terrible indeed.
Oh! the terror, the embarrassment
one suffers, none can ever tell ex-
cept he has had the experience. Yet
we do not want this kind of expert

taking us and it is sure to come if

preservation. To prepare will depend
largely upon the thrift, energy, push
and industry of the individual. We
had all better hear the call now
while it can be needed. Many of
those who are warning have felt the
pinch of hunger whether by war or
otherwise. They know from expert
ence the results Of such a condition.

self with mother earth who in re-
turn will supply your needs. If the

THE END OF THE WRoLD.

The public is being treated to many
remarks relative to the present con-
flict and the end of the world. People
who set these forth profess to back
them by scripture. The assumption
seems to be that humanity has be-
come hopelessly sinful and must be
destroyed in order that a reign of
love and peace may crown new
earth.
We have no patience with these
pious speculations. The war was not
brought about by universal wicked
ness, far from it. The masses were and
are still pleading for peace. 1t is an
absolute and undeniable fact that a
little company of Prussian militry die
tators wrenched the nations with this
horrible cataclysm. The German peo-
pie outside of~this conquest thirsty,
coterie of militarism were largely ig-
nOrant or the intentions OF their dlc-
tators and innocent of evil desires,
Why then should God destroy beauti
fully conceived world because of the
misdeeds of a comparatively insignif-
cant few?
We are sure he will not do so. In
time. the days of evil and sorrow will
pass. A few have offended beyond
words to express. In due season God
will deal with these according to their
deeds. But as for the rank and file
they left "the quiet tenor of their
ways" because they were forced to do
so.

LEND a Helping Hand"

To the colored women of the Rural Dis
tr1cts OF Tennessee, Greeting:-
Dear Sisters:-We see in the Nash
vile Globe and in other papers, re-
ports showing that the women of the
cities are organized into clubs for
mutual benefit and inspiration, and
that in this way they are able to do
more for themselves as we'll as for
their neighbors; they can thereby
keep a gentle hold upon the young
people, and be a help in guiding many
of them into a glorious manhood and
Womanhood.
If the women Of the cities need this
they who have their churches with
able pastors, their excellent schools,
frequent lectures and demonstrators;
how very much more do we women OF
the rural districts need to be organ
lied?
There was a time when every wo-
man was supposed to be interested
only in the care Of her own home and
children. but today we have a wider
field and should live up to our State
Motto, which is Lend a Helping
Hand" Let us organize; let us form
ourselves into clubs for study for ex-
change of ideas and for the mutual
betterment Of our home life and COM
munity, and thereby improve race life.
Our living in che country is no ex-
cuse for our not Icing interested in
the questions of the day that effect the
people, and women in particular, in
the betterment Of their homes and
communities. In club work we receive
instruction, encouragement and inspi
ration.
Remember, we are anxious to i'm
prove Health Conditions as well as
Educational Conditions. This is the
time Of year to begin our crusade on

germs of disease. We can put W
