EAST TENNESSEE
PYTH|ANS ACTIVE
DEPUTY BANKS A HUSTLER
PEACE AND HARMONY IN HAM
HTON COUNTY-EXCELLENT
WORK BEING DONE.

During the latter part of last week
the Field Deputy Grand Chancellor
visited Chattanooga and found the
Mountain City in excellent condition
Peace and harmony reign supreme in
Chattanooga and Hamilton county.
The work of the Grand Deputy, Sir
A. 5. Banks, is apparent. A unique
feature of his activity is that of add
ing new members of all of the lodges
in his district.
Sir Luther Duncan, Grand Master
alarms, has been very active in Del.
phia Lodge. Eighteen additions rep
resented one weeks work.
Hill City added five, st. Luke four.
teen, Royal six, Crystal six, Timothy
live and Syracuse three.
During last week fifty-seven new
members were added to the order in
Chattanooga alone.
Sir Fred Douglass is also doing
good work in his district. He is or.
ganizing a new lodge in Sweetwater.
While in Chattanooga Sir Fite Wis
tied Syracuse Lodge No. 5 to which
such live wires as j. Milton Easter
ling, Morris, House, Tyree, Miles,
Wickliffe and Allen belong. These
men make things go.
The Field Deputy was greatly i'm.
pressed with y.acuse Lodge, it's of.
Ulcers and the manner in which the
business was conducted. Punctuality
in opening and closing the lodge and
their attention to detail made the
meeting even more impressive. This
good lodge subscribed 5000 to the
Liberty Loan Fund.
Rev. ]. w. Tate, the eloquent Grand
Prelate, and Sir John Singleton have
already organized lodge at Alec and
are extending their efforts to Lenoir
City, Louden and Marysville.
1t seems that the Great Booster
Campaign is now on in earnest, both
ends of the state are working hard
to roll up the greatest number of new
members.
Middle Tennessee is waking uI
also. The lodges in Nashville art
being strengthened by the additions
of new members or reinstatement a
a rapid rate.
Friendship No. 70 added eight t.
its roster Monday night. -
On Sunday, November 25th, a uniol
: initiation will be held at the Pythial
Temple at 2 o'clock p. m. Sir R. Z
Gee and a picked team will TAX
charge of the work. From the repor
of the Grand Medical REGISTER, ID
w. A. Thompson, many are being add
) ed daily and that his Office is bein
/ swamped with application blanks. I
. is interesting to observe that the prir
l ciples of the order are being NOR
l and more appreciated throughout tn
t state.
4 Mrs. Walter l.. Jones, city chair
( man of the Food Pledge Card Can
+ paien, wishes to thank every perso
/. in the city who helped to make tn
+ campaign a success, and wishes t
, call especial attention to the splendi
f spirit of intelligent helpfulness show
n by the colored race.

Mrs. F. E. Dawson, President
of the Federation of Womens Clubs,
was appointed chairman-at-large by
Mrs. Jones, and with her usual execu-
tive ability she Immediately began
making arrangements looking to a
thorough canvass of the city. The
ward and block system was adopted
as the most effective method of
reaching the people and it was nee
essary to appoint chairman for each
ward in which the resident colored
population was sufficiently large to
justify such service. These chair
men were: Mesdames G. H. Haynes,
S. w. Crosthwait, ]. T. Pierce, P. r.
Burrus, j. c. Napier, Mary Bennett,
Henry Jones, j. A. Lester, H. j. Frank
lin, Joe Reece, c. V. Lane and S. P.
Harris. These received their APP
pointments through Mrs. Dawson and
I they in turn appointed their workers
who made door to door canvass
, for signatures. These bore the hard.
est part of the campaign, but in
every instance the work was done
with willing spirit and with full
sense of what our government means
when it asks us to conserve food
now in order to avoid possible dis.
comfort later.
Early in the campaign it developed
that the eighth ward had not been or
ganized. Mrs. Jones asked Mrs
Julia Williams, president of the
Mothers Club Of Bethlehem House
to take the ward craftsmanship. She
has done splendid work not only II
the Sth, but in the Gath, which hat
not been fully organized and hel
services have been greatly appreciat
ed Her assistants were: Mrs Sallit
Sawyer, Mrs. Minnie Anderson, Mrs

bereaved family had requested a
simple funeral, pressue was brought
to bear from within as we'll as with.

other schools in which campaigns
were held, but from whom reports
have not yet been received are
Georgia State College, Cannon Theo-
logical Seminary and Morris Brown
University.
The interesting thing about it all
is that the subscriptions are being col
lected promptly. Hampton Institute
and Union University have both col
lceted their subscriptions of $1,000
each; Haines Institute, of Augusta,
Ca, subscribed $144 and collected
1894. The collecting campaign is still
going on and from present reports
there is every reason for believing that
not less than so per cent of all sub
scriptions will be collected.
A circular appeal is being sent out
this week urging all schools in which
campaigns were not held to observe
Nov. 9th as special day Of prayer
and offering for the War Fund. 1t
is hoped that the same spirit of sacri.
flee may characterize their responce
as was true of those that participate
ed in the subscription campaign.
Mr.. Tobias and Miss Evans have
been ably assisted in their campaign
