ANNUAL SERVICES
AT SPRUCE ST. CHU.
Thanksgiving Celebration,
Grand Order Of Odd
Fellows A Very Sue
cessful Affair.

The Thanksgiving Services of the
Lodges and Households of Ruth of
the G. U. o. of o. F., at Spruce St.,
Baptist Church Sunday May 18th was
one of the largest and best attended
services held in several years. The
day was an ideal one, the air crisp and
somewhat cool. Yet withal the Order
of the Odd Fellows was in keeping
with the day Promptly at 2:S0, Chief
Marshal, Bro. Cornelius White, Sylvan
City Lodge ushered his Brothers in
preceded by the Ruthites and Juve
niles,aHwhom seemed Endless. The
Ruthites filled the North aisle of the
spacious auditorium; the Juveniles
filling more than half of the South
Aisle; the Odd Fellows were seated in
the center and from the Rostrum a
prettier picture could not be found.
Only one thing was missint and that
was our beloved President, who was
away in Virginia, but from the good
will and sincerity which existed, we
felt his heart was with us. Bro. j. p.
! Porter as Master of Ceremonies was
at his best and his words of admoni-
ton did not fail to reach the hearts
OF those who may have lost hope and
courage.
Bro. R. Wngfeld Has ETAOTN SHR
Heart on Odd Fellowship and gave
some good substantial facts. The pa
per read by Mrs. Matte R. Perry, p
M. N. G., Marian H. H. R., was as
excellent one. Much good, sound 40
vice was given the Ruthites and the
order in general. The paper deserves
special mention. The Sermon was fine
and enjoyed by the Order. Many goot
things were said by Rev. Brown wht
proved himself to be an Odd Fellow
true and tried. State rGand Master Ire
T. Bryant was the next speaker and j
is needless to say, as every Odd Eel
low, Ruthite and Juvenile knows tina
he is an advocate Of every good thin.
that goes to make the Odd Fellows
success. His talk was heartily receiV
ed by the Order and friends who re
GREETED his time was so limited. A visi
or, Bro. Russell from Louisiana, wa
introduced to the audience but OWNS
to the lateness of the hour he did no
speak. He will be heard at Greenwood
Park at the Annual Picnic, June 18th
A liberal collection was taken by tn
Lodges, Households of Ruth and Jr
veniles. We can not fail to give spe
cial mention Of the Patriotic Pas
Masters Councils who were out i
full regalia. On the Rostrum beside
the officers of the Day were Attorne

Discusses Negro Migra-
ton.

Hampton. Va Nav 14th, Especial
to The Globe)-Maurice 2. Thomas
son of Monticello Ark, who Is mem
her of the Hampton Institute Senior
class, in discussing the question OF
Negro Migration recently said:
"The argument that only inefficient
lawless. never-do-well men would be
involved in the exodus has been amp
" disproved by the fact that thous-
ands of most trustworthy men-men
who have spent years in the employ
of one firm-and many land owning
farmers, as we'll as common laborers,
have gone. ...... Here lies the hope
that when Southern white people have
come to realize that better economic
opportunities for Negroes do not de-
crease the prosperity OF white men,
but increase it, tat better educated
Negroes are. not refractory, insurgent,
but lawabiding, efficient citizens, then
will Southern men not return to the
old order"

JONES AND BOYD
TAKE CHICAGO.
Two Baptist Giants in the
Windy City Leave on
Campaign Through
State.

Chicago, Ill.,, May 14th.-All day
yesterday this city was in the grasp
of two giants in the National Bap-
tist cause. The Rev. e. p. Jones,
d. D., of Vicksburg, Miss, president
of the National Baptist Convention,
unincorporated, and Rev. R. II. Boyd,
d. D., Secretary of the National Bap-
tist Publishing Board at Nashville,
Tenn, were the attractions. While
they are here preparations are being
made that as soon as they leave Chi
cago they are going on a pilgrimage
through the center of the state. On
yesterday Drs. Jones and Boyd filled
many pulpits. They seemed to take
in the new Sunday school idea of
Z whirlwind campaign. While it is
true they are here under the auspices
of the Baptist ministers, they were
personally directed by Drs. John F.
Thomas, Boston ]. Prince and Lucius
j. Drane. The principal meeting OF
the day was held at the Original
Providence Baptist Church on the
south side, pastored by DR.. Prince.
At this meeting DR.. Jones was the
principal speaker. 1t was the first
under the auspices of the Laymen S
Movement of Chicago, which is a
branch of the national organization
of the unincorporated Convention.
DR.. Jones was eloquent throughout
the address. The program presented
in connection with the exercises
was on the highest possible nature
DR.. Boyd was also speaker during
the afternoon. He also spoke al
Friendship Baptist Church, of which
DR.. Drane is pastor, at 8 a. m, and
lat II a. M, and at EbeneZer Baptist
: iChurch he spoke at p. M, of which
Y Rev. DIR. Thomas is pastor. Tonight
Z there was a great mass meeting Of
the Haptists of Chicago held at the
SalelN Baptist Church This church
is mahe notable in the minds of the
BaptSts of the country because Il
entertained the unincorporated Ma
tional Baptist Convention after there
had been a division in the Baptis
ranks when they met here in Septem
ber, 1915. The pastor of the church
the Rev. DR.. Haywood, had arranged
great meeting which came up t,
their expectations. Another meet
ing is arranged whereby Drs. Jone
and Boyd will address the Baptis
Ministers Alliance at the Mt Car
mel Church at Oak Park tomorrow
at 2:30 o'clock. Then on Wednesda
the program provides for anothe
rousing meeting at the Second Bap
tist Church of haywood. On Thurs
day following this they are to be a
the Berean Baptist Church, and the
on Friday they go to the Union BaI
tist Church. Next Sunday they com
back to EbeneZer; on Monday eve
ming Friendship will be revisited
On Tuesday of next week the entir
Chicago delegation will accompan
Drs. Jones and Boyd to the Baptis
Convention, which is to be held q
Carbondale. 1t was announced tt
day that it had not been definitel
decided how long Drs. Boyd an
Jones would remain in the state, br
that pressure was being brought
bear to have them touch every impo
tant point in Illinois.

words of welcome, which, in my
opinion, were very kind and generous
and undoubtedly have reached their
destination in our hearts, in which
direction | feel they were intended,
and which have already made us
feel very much at home here with
you in the great city of Nashville
that is known throughout the coun-
try for its great educational advan-
tages, and like the great Tuskegee
Institute, an air of refinement and
culture is felt by an intelligent fell
low-traveler Immediately after ar
irving and setting foot upon its cam
pus or premises.
| further assure you that in well
coming to your city the men and
women representing this time-hon-
ored and praiseworthy profession,
they represent, in my opinion, the
class of people who would be styled
as the Burden Bearers of the
Race" In many cases, the banks of
the country will not trust man if
he is not well known, for even one
dollar, without sufficient security.
But, on the other hand, an under
/ taker will trust a man for ten dol
lars on his own personal honor, if
he is impressed with the appeal the
! fellow makes, and is satisfied with
the signs of honesty that may appear
in his face.
So, my dear sir, if you are willing
to trust the keys of your beautiful
betty for the enjoyment of the people
~ the state, we will endeavor to
c0Nyince you that you have made nc
misNke.
Much credit is due President
lor and DR.. Leach for their splendid
effort at organization, which has
brought together this splendid mum
ber of persons, who are actively en-
gagged in the Funeral Directing Bus
mess, and having received such {
cordial welcome, trust it will tent
to impress us with the Importance o.
making good use of the time tha
we plan to spend together in the city
Lastly | want once again, on thu
part of the Association here assem-
bled, to thank yeu and the good peo
pie of Nashville, whom you repre-
sent, for the very, very warm wei
come extended us.
Committees were then appointed
and President Taylor delivered hi
annual address in which he reviewed
his career as an undertaken il
Nashville, Tenn. He gave valuable
information as to the method ant
manner to proceed in order to sue
ceed in the undertaking business
After the address of President Tay
lor, the meeting adjourned and en-
joyed a delicious dinner prepared b.
the Improvement Club of st. Paul A
M. e. Church at the expense of MI
F. G. Guthrie, General Manager o
the National Casket House.
The principal feature Of the al
ternoon session were the report c
the Secretary, DR.. ]. l.. Leach, an
the reports of the committees. Th
report of the Secretary reviewed tn
work of the establishment of tn
Association and the success obtaine
