Leroy Byrd of the Byrd Sign Company, the only one of the large placements in the trade was that fostering and supporting the trade week. G. W. DeWait of the Lincoln Theatre boosted the week with big streamer, slides and 6 coupon with R. T. Andrew put on a special reduction on a line of well-known goods, with others employed various roles. We visited this occasion. The manner in which the business co-operated in putting over the trade program is a healthy and organized co-operative in direct possibilities and potentialities; if we will only unite our teams and direct up and support any movement or undertaking that means for the race's advancement, bettlement and solidarity. Let's have more Negro Trade Weeks and are long, having caught the spirit of the trade week and our week and our week and our business and profession all men will enjoy and share a greater LOVELY LETTER CASE. The head of this department is indeed grateful to Edgar B. McMullen of the Poe College, St. Louis, Mo, for a beautiful tan leather case recently presented us, as compliment of the executive institution.

THE HOUSTON INFORMER Colored Heavyweight Gives White Fighter Awful Glove Mauling "Black Panther" of New Orleans Pounced Upon Pugilistic Prey in First Spasm With Terrific Body-Punches—Smith, Mighty Heavy, Floored Eight Times in Six Minutes—Firpo and "Battling" Siki Witnessed Fiasco—10,000 Fans Demand Dempsey Fight Wills. (Preston News Service.) Kalamazoo, Mich.-Knocked minutes of fighting, Homer Smer of the far west, proved a mute a bronze panther of New Orleans, paign to force Jack Dempsey to curled up before the most terrify a heavyweight fighter. Smith was knocked out in exa of fighting, in which the white whelmed that he never had a chin. In super condition and with the Kalamazoo, Mich.—Knocked down eight, times in less than six minutes of fighting, Homer Smith, the slugger from this village of the far west, proved a mere stepping stone for Harry Wills, the bronze panther of New Orleans, last Thursday night, in his campaign to force Jack Dempsey into the ring with him, when he curled up before the most terrific body beating ever administered a heavyweight fighter. Smith was knocked out in exactly five minutes and six seconds of fighting, in which the white fighter was so completely overwhelmed that he never had a chance to lay a glove on Wills. In super condition and with the Smith went down. Then came the acceleration of the former "narrator" and round. characteristics of that famous "prince" of the forest from whom he devised his nackname, Wills proved more than a panther in action here Thursday night. He leaped from his corner with the ferocity of a tiger as the bell brought the battles to the middle of the ring. Unleashing all of the thunder in him for more than a year, and poor Homer Smith, realizing the vital force against him was pitted, simply went into his shell and stayed there. In Wonderful Form. Weighting 211 pounds, his real fighting weight, and with his muscles rippling under the bronze skin, Wills rocked the ring at the Queenensburg Stadium here, eager and restless. Said conference did not settle much. But when the first blow delivered in the fight, his mind was suddenly made. Wills had claimed, before the fight, that there was no man living who had lasted the distance of ten rounds with the Argentinian. Wills' Body Blows. Wills was in wonderful form and he turned a flipped of blows that folded up in the very first round. Without landing a blow to the head, Wills rocked his opponent with short, sceptical eyes and lasted 45 seconds of flipping him to the canvas for the count of nine, without having hit on the jaw. It was these murderous, terrific actions that the body doubled up him. Those body blows were enough. Each time that Wills drove in, a raw red bruise showed the spot where these powerful shocks had landed. Five times in the first round Wills, whose speed proved a revelation to those who watched him in action, complete the attack and landed those decisive, strength-asphalt punches. And each time he landed. In Wonderful Form. Wills' Body Blows. down eight times in less than six sith, the slugger from this village stepping stone for Harry Wills, the last Thursday night, in his camto the ring with him, when he body beating ever administered five minutes and six seconds fighter was so completely overance to lay a glove on Wills. Smith went down. Then came the sec and round. The Knockout Punch. The first blow of the bout, launted by Wills, had been a terrific right under the heart, and Smith (hearing the birds), decided that his tough bite was up against the that it could cause. He still groggy from the effects of the body punishment he had received in the first round and with nothing to carry him forth but the idea that Wills might let up, Smith advanced, once more, to the slaughter. For Wills, Smith as soon as he could catch him, clouched him a couple of blows and down he went. Rising at the count of nine, with arms hanging limply to his elbow, he attempted to rush into a clutch, but then again short arm-jetting, he again went down. Once more he rose, tottering, and Wills, with delicateness, intent shot the haymaker, spelling K. O. Smith simply collapsed for the last time. As he was helped to his corner he was cared for the birds, that bore the imprint of Wills gloves. 10,000 Acclaim Willa Winner As Wills leaped from the ring, accompanied by his manager, Paddy Millen, the plunders of the 10,000 fans, ran through the crowd, and this battle of giants, joined in giving Wills a nightly acclaim. As they arose and throughout the dun could be heard the calls of "Bring on Jack". There was not a fan in the place but who knew that Wills was the logical choice for the replay of Inzo in action against Smith. They had seen Smith step the gate, who, with Batting Sirt and others, was an onlooker at the ringside, shook their heads as they witnessed Wills. TRINITY RAISED 5785 In a financial drive, which closed last Sunday, the Trinity M. E. Church, Dr. K. O. Woolfson, pastor reported $725 laid on the table by the drive leaders, and the pastor expects the amount to exceed the $1000 mark when final reports are made.

Last week's Informer carried a news item concerning the ju- ial ticket of Cook County, of which Chicago is the prineipal part. having « colored citizen for one of the elective postions as} judge for the superior court of that county. This distinguished colored citizen is the Honorable Edward H. Morris, one of the most eminent lawyers of the country and na-| ‘tional grand master of the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows of| America. ‘Not only is Mr. Morris conceded to be possessed of judicial cali ‘bre and temperament, but he is one of the Windy City's most sub-| stantial citizens and his elevation to the bench would be a deserv-| ing tribute to a worthy citizen and able barrister. ‘This is the first time in Chicago's history that a colored man has ‘been nominated for a postion on the judicial ticket of any party’ ‘and political wiseacres see in Morris’ nomination a clever political stroke by the republicans of Chicago and Cook County. It will be borne in mind that colored voters in Chicago are be- coming more independent in their votes (somewhat like their racial brothers in New York City, where colored electors vote for ‘measures rather than men and prineiples rather than parties) and ‘as a result the republican candidate for mayor went down in in- lorions defeat in the spring mayoralty election before his demo- cratic opponent. ‘The so-called “black belt” of the Windy City, in the spring elec- ton, forsook the “grand old party” (called “greedy old pirate” bby some) and supported Mayor Dever in preference to Candidate Laeder, Chicago postmaster. In acceding to the request of the colored delegation of leading <itizens and political leaders for a colored man on the judicial ticket, the republican slate makers of Cook County, apparently, hhad not forgotten the defection of the colored brother from the G0. P. during last city election. ‘Bat aside from its political significance and ramifications, the fact remains that the color of the skin should play no part in the selection and elevation of men to positions of trust, authority and power. ‘The only determining factors should be character, ability and pe- culiar fitness for the office. Other things should not enter in— not in a democratic republic such as ours—for they are inconse- ‘qvential and of relatively no importance; at least, they should be If there is one failing and weak point in our present elective aye: tem, it is the act and practice of men voting their popular preju- dices instead of their sober judgment, ‘As a usual thing, the man who can arouse more prejudice and fan the fires of hatred and animosity more, stands the best chance ‘of being elevated and elected to some office that he is inherently ‘and fundamentally unfit and disqualified to occupy. ‘Such officers and officials as these have brought shame and Gisrepate upon the offices they hold and are largely responsible for the present reign of lawlessness and disrespect for conatitut- ‘ed authority, superinduced by moral cowardice, so prevalent in ‘this country. ‘We should aspire for public offices just like other races and in éue season, if we faint not, we shall arrive and when we arrive, ‘verily we are going to remain. ‘Some of au people have been taught that itis both erime,trea- ® aon, sedition, espionage and grand larceny, an well as first degere for a colored man to announce himself ax & candidate for }; and, when,some colored.brother becomes THE HOUSTON INFORMER, SATURDAY, OCT. 28, 1923. ‘bold enough to aspire for such an office, his own people take cold feet, renounce his candidacy, denounce the candidate and refuse to.g0 to the polls on election day and cast x ballot for said axpir ant Ree toe Oe es ar oe where eolored citizens have long aince discovered the potency "etal and never rfure toemply it where they have vey Fw tonto believe that it will mean much to their group and the social fabric. ‘The Informer would like to see Mr. Morris become Judge Morris, and, ifthe citizens of Chicago and Cook County will nt vote thei Popular prejudices, but support and vote for the candidates on thelr merits and fitness, this colored candidate will stand an ex cellent chance of being returned winner on election day. The black man gels a deal of recognition and consideration from the “powers that be” in Chicago, beause the dark-skinned broth ris polteal factor that must be reckoned with; which shoul cause colored etizens, even in the South, to labor for the soqu ‘ition and retention of their suffrage rights for the voteless man is voleclese—and the voleless man is helpleas and the heples man is atthe merey of hs oppressors-between Seyla and Charyb ais, Here's hoping Mister Morris becomes Judge Morris! Selah! Did you notice that large amount of space the colored busi- ness and professional men of the Houston Colored Commercial ‘Club employed in last week's Informer? a Well, if you did not, then there is something radically wrong with you, or your eyesight is faulty ; for it is the first time in the history of the race in Houston, if not in Texas, that such a gigantic ‘business program has even been attempted, te say nothing of being ut over as the Negro Trade Week was placed before the public in the present campaign. But what made its peculiar impression upon us was the manner in which this advertising program was engineered and operated ‘on such a co-operative plan that the cost to each employer of space was virtually nominal. With a small outlay of cash, the several advertisers who boosted this Negro Trade Week showed the power of co-operation and co- ordination of forces and demonstrated what ean be accomplished if we will all put our small mites together and work to.one given end, When their bills were submitted to them by the business agent of the organization for space in The Informer and other advertis- ing matter the club had printed for boosting this special week, ‘some of the advertisers were dumbfounded and forthwith inquired how the organization could afford to do so much with such a small charge for space, ete. ‘When it was shown them that this was only possible through the co-operation and support of the business atid professinoal men ‘sponsoring the trade week, they readily saw the advantages and ‘benefits of concerted action and team-work. If we would only learn the lesson of co-operation and group ac- tion in our every-day relations and business intercourse with each other, we would soon reach new heights in the emmercial and busi- ness realm and prove to the world that we can feally “ut it.” In this day of fierce, keen and bitter competition, successful races and men have ceased the individualistic efforts and have long since adopted the policy and program of co-operation and concerted faction ; with the results that we have big companies and corpora- tions that make it miserable for the small business man. In all lines of human endeavor men are forming combines and uniting their forces and“Subordinating their fpdividual wills and opinions for the best interests of the whole and their progress and ‘accumulatons, in numerous instances, are staggering and stupend- ous, ‘The members of the Houston Colored Commercial Club, who joined forees and contributed of their means to boost and make ‘successful our first Negro Trade Week, have shown the way and proven beyond the shadow of a reasonable doubt or conjecture ‘what small things ean accomplish. It is not a matter of how much but how well, that counts; for the race is not always to the swift nor the battle to the strong, but to him that holdeth out (endureth) to the end. | Noman nor race should despise the day of small or little things, for there must be a beginning. ‘The mighty oak springs from the little acorn and the mustard plant grows from a tiny seed. ‘The fable of the old man with 7 sons, who took 7 sticks and gave them a practical demonstration of concerted action versus individualistic effort, is worthy of our consideration; for it teaches ‘4 great lesson and one that we need to learn and put into execu- tion both in our every-day and commercial life. ‘One race man expressed it very wisely last Saturday, when he ‘exclaimed, “O, what a power we could be, if we would only learn and practice the lesson of co-operation and teamwork, as evidenced in the campaign for sponsoring and promoting this’ Negro Trade Week!” ‘The colored business and professional men of Houston have ‘made a nice start in the right direction, but if they stop with this effort all their energies and contributions will go for naught and ‘they will have fed pearls to swine. ‘The various institutions of learning throughout the country, and especially those for colored youths in the South, report large en- rollments and many of them are crowded to capacity with stu- dents eager for knowledge and striving to prepare themselves for 1 life's work of service and benefaction. In Texas our schools and colleges are already crowded, in the ‘main, and the several heads of the Lone Star institutions of learn- {ng are practically unanimnous in their opinion that this bids fair to be the greatest year in the schools’ history. Let us make:a few comparisons with a view of showing the progress and advancement our race has made in Texas in educa- tional circles. Dr. M. W, Dogan, president of Wiley College, Marshall, Texas, states that when he came to Wiley 27 years ago, out of an enroll- ment of $86, 350 of that number were classified in the grammar department. = ‘The enrollment at this school for the 1923-24 session is around thie 600 mark at present and less tharr 50 of thebe’Are’in the gram- maar depestment, and this department is cnly smisteined now te serve as a clinic for those who are preparing themselves to take ‘up the normal and college preparatory courses. ‘At Bishop College, Prof. C. H. Maxson, president, aloo at Mar shall a similar situation obtains; for 20 years ago fully 75 par cent of all the students were in the grammar grades, but today this college maintains no grammar department and its enrollment is the best in the history of the school at this time of the year. ‘The same condition exists at virtually all of our Texas institu Lions of higher learning and this augurs much for the future of our race along educational lines. ‘And yet there are any number of chiliren who should and coul be in school drinking at the fountain of knowledge, who are grow- ing up in dense ignorance and wasting their lives on the desert si, a it were. Ignorance is the greatest ally crime has and to be ignorant in this day and time isa sin and crime unto high heaven. Statistics disclose the fact that very few criminals are educat ed people, but a distinction must be drawn here between educated people and book-learned people. ‘To merely become well versed in the languages, be » genius in mathematics and the sciences, employ flawless English and to be fable to write a lengthy treatise on important and unimportant subjects, are not true indications of education; but that man of ‘woman is best edueated who renders the best service to human- ity. ‘Knowledge acquired is good, but knowledge applied is better. People are not so much concerned in what one knows asin what one does for the good of all. We once read of a man roaming the streets of an American city, ‘who could speak seven different languages fluently, yet he was begting bread and had no place to lay his head. Education prepares and enables a man (generically speaking) tc adjust himself to any and all situations, and, if no place is made for him, he makes his place,—makes his own sunshine and then stands init. | ‘There is not another Southern state that can boast of greater ‘educational progress than Texas, both in the public schools and private institutions of learning; and the fact that so many of her bronze sons and daughters are taking advantage of these wonder. fal opportunities, speaks well for our race and refutes the argu ment advanced by our enemies, that colored people are satisfied ‘with their present, ignorant status and illiteracy. It also demonstrates the fact that our race has reached or is reaching the place in its racial career where we are beginning te practice more and more the doctrine of self-help; for he tha ‘would rise must himeclf first make the effort. “YES, WE HAVE WO PITCHERS!” ‘The ater collaee of the pitching lace ot the.
