SIXTY-FOUR GIVEN
DEGREES MONDAY
AT STATE SCHOOL
Pratice View College—it was a happy moment in the life of 46 young people here Monday, when they were given their various degrees at the state identification of learning. Of this number 28 were in training school 26 B. S. In Education, 28 B. In Agriculture, 28 S. In Home Economics and 4 B. In Mechanical Engineering.
In reviewing the work of this school during its administration, Principal Robert B. Hunt's curriculum was changed and additions at course added therein, many were dubious and that the first college class only had 4 as compared with 45
The Prairie View College enrollment during the 24-26 semester was 185, actually 186, and 500 and 600 being donated admission due to lack of dormitory and classroom facilities. The high school course has been made available to junior and senior college, giving the college a competitive edge in junior college and regular degree from senior college. The summer course has been operated only for those who have already done certain credits in summer normal course.
The address to the graduates was delivered by Prof. Monroe N. Wek, head of the Graduate Program at Taukeke Institute, Taukeke Academy, at Taukeke Institute. Akraeus, Al. Razebo Problem. "Being foremost statistician of the race in the world and one of the foremost of all roads along which the world is moving," the problem statement, what tremendous part education in beginning to solve the race is, so important.

Dallas, Tx. May 30. The organization here comprising all of the man enclosed in the building of the Brotherhood of Negro Building Mechanics—which was given birth under very auspicious and unusual circumstances on the 1st of October, 1923—has degreed in the master of memberhood in the master of memberhood and oversees our compilation, begins the dreams of its founder, W.

Its influence is already beginning to reverberate Nationwide to bring about a close relationship between all honest and conscientious men, and even between the two races.

Finally, it might be interesting to the state at large to know that within the last twelve months (ending May 30, 1925) the brotherhood members have built over 95 per cent of all the houses and other buildings erected by colored owners of Dallas during that period, and prospects for the amassing twelve
The Original Questioner, Rev. W. L. Dickinson, questioned by State Grand Organizer, Waldo Matthews—Charges Elder With Playing Politics and Hiding Behind Smoke Screen—Scoffs at Reverend's Interrogations—Fires "Big Bertha" at "Dick."
Houston, Texas, May 23, 1935.
Editor Houston Informer:
In a recent issue of the Dallas Express, we read an article written by Rev. W. L. Dickinson, in which he pretends to ask for information concerning the recent made by Endowment Secretary J.H. Middle at the formal opening of the Odd Fellows Temple. We do not see why Rev. Dickson, as well as he knows Bro. Riddle, did not ask Bro.Riddle by the phone, letter or personal route, instead of through the columns of a reviewer there, to have a anything wrong, make whatever charges he cares to, the same to be based on facts and truths.
graphs the reverend says it is the people's business. He says, also, that he is trying to set information for the public. It seems to me that the public fan's concerned in this matter. It belongs to the members, why then seek it for the public? Have they asked anyone to get the information for them? Whom have they selected for their leader, or attorney? Is there a time and a place? This has a most excellent grand master for his unswerving humour. You mean that the grand master Goree; G. S., Bro. Ewing; Deg M. Jackson; G. D. Mims; our five committee, and the grand tors, Dennis, Starks and M
Every intelligent Odd Fellow in the state knows the answer to every question asked in that article. If it was intended as a question, it must be the figure of speech known, rhetorically, as the interrogation—not to be answered. We look upon it as an unwarranted attack, not only on Bro. Riddle, but upon the entire endowment board and the order in Texas—a move to hinder its growth and prosperity.
The Oliner writer claims as his right to post as a Crownwell, to protect being a prominent member of the work, also by his own great work for the order, also by his great lodge. We know that he was a question or two, by vengeance by being the organizer, and having heard nearly 100 lodges and houses, and put them together, and furthermore, knowing that such propaganda is for the purposes of hindering the work, and not to unchallenged. This article is equally charged to a charge. We know the cover of the book and so well in it, and know it mentioned in his article. Now, the big question is, Why this attack does they expect to accomplish by it.
*Intimination is an instrument of the devil, used to do审察, but it can also be used to believe that the reward is the architect of this plan, nor do we be interested in it. Warezick. Nor do we care who they are. We want to问, however, whether they are to be up to stupefy by drawing any body into a confusion concerning this matter. This will not give the promoter a shade in dealing with silent content.
If any loud speaker appears on the floor of the grand lodge with such propanoids, whose purpose is to impress the audience in the order in Texas, he will head an audience to be heard. If you come with a propanoid, you will be an attention audience. You will be an attention audience.
The fifth and sixth paragraph of the article seem to expose the police who caused the elder to take offence. Maybe the Riddle should not have been the strongest and that they had more cash. I am sure that the reverend Groe. The rogue, the noblest Roman of all, beg pardon, but remember that the audition do the same thing. Any person who tells the truth is a boat. It is a big thing to be a breed merchant, the president of the U.S., the president of the board of manufacturing or what not. All of all you can do is audition of this class must be made of this class and well qualified to go from the year to the year to audition. You can achieve great things for others—also in a way that you can achieve great things for others—in this class. You cannot believe that our secret-minded slinging report. He is a local member of many orders, as many of the officers in dark rooms cannot reach it would attempt to retard the peace, happiness and prosperity of those people. Hiding, etc. investigate and bring us the facts to the grand judge, and the manch of all your survey. He is to be a secret order.

Politics of this caliber doesn't modern guns. We are using large cartridges, the modern kind and not the ancient. The elder says that order has made a great burden on many, but somehow, very body does not think as he does, makes him to think for them, which very unfortunate, and has made him from succeeding in his purpose but such is life. We are going to this propaganda to put away into the membership drive. I cannot let any body put a block into my path of death when I can so easily block it. No one can say that I am not succeeding. This results speak for me. Rev. Dickson, please stand out of my sunlight. We don't believe you are so much after Riddle's report as you are trying to feather your seat from another barnyard!

Dr. J. E. Dibble Gets Important Position; to Care For Injured Federal Employees
Kansas City Call:
News reaches Kansas City, from Washington, to the effect that Dr. J. Dibble, a leading physician and pain specialist, pointed by Dr. Edward C. Ernst, a distinguished State, to care for the injured civil employees of the government in Great Britain, to give a distinguished honor to the Negro race and a fine testimonial to the ability and high
In the practice of his profession Dr. Dibble has been the recipient of many high honors of which the following are a few: Consulting physician of the Kansas City Southern R. R. Company, in which capacity he has served with credit to himself and the race that he so ably represents. In addition to this, he is perhaps the first Negro in America to be appointed to such a position. Dr. Dibble is affiliated with the Kansas City Nut and Bolt Foundry, having under his care the injured employees of this great industrial institution. For the past seven years he has been associated with the Building and Trade Union, in which he has given careful study to industrial medicine and surgery, all of which has eminently fitted him for the great position to which he has been called. In the professional, religious, social, civic and industrial life of Kansas City, Dr. and Mrs. Dibble are honored leaders and greater triumphs await them. The government will find that no mistake was made by the appointment of Dr. Dibble.

Lesson for May 31
PETER AT LYDDA AND JOOPA
LESSON TEXT- Acts 3:24-40
GOLDEN TEXT- And they went forth and preached everywhere, the Lord working with them, and confirming Mark 16:26
TOPIC-Two Wonderful Things That Peter Did
MINOR TOPIC-The Story of Two Minors
INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC-Young PEOPLE and ADULT TOPIC-The Place of Miracles in the Spread of the Gospel
In order to grasp the significance of this lesson, we should recall the condition which prevailed in the church as suggested in verse 31.
1. Freedom From Persecution.
2. The need for prosecutors, had only recently been converted, thereby disorganizing their forces and causing the church to enjoy a breathing spell. This period of freedom, worldly and forgetful of God, but for growth in grace and in the knowledge of the Lord Jesus Christ.
2. Spiritual Growth and Develop-
Most blessed will be the results following the times of outward peace if the members of the church will help the real meaning of the word, "eified" is built up. This does not mean merely that the members were being instructed and comforted, but that arraignment on the part of individual members, as well as the body as a whole, were being made for the advance of the divine life. As suggested in Chapter 12, A Foundation. This is Jesus Christ. No other must be laid (1 Cor. 8:12-16).
(2) Continuous progress. This means that a Christian's activities are purposeful, and that the work he undertakes moves forward with the proper progression.
(3) Continuous effort. This means that the present day's work begins the foundation upon which tomorrow's work must be built. Thus day by day his life is being raised higher and more spiritual is being laid by strenuous efforts.
(4) Completion. Finally the work is completed, the building is completed, the top stone is brought forth and placed.
8. Outward Growth.
Building up within the church causes the whole work to be admired and respected by those without, inducing them to come and identify themselves with it.
I. Peter's Tear Among the Saints (v. 32).
This resulted in securing new converts. Two Stupendous Miracles (vv. 82-48). These were the greatest signs wrought since the days of Christ. The man who was baptized, quashed, and a corpse is reenacted by the departed soul. The Lord had promised these signs as they went on. He gave them and it were given as encouragements to the disciples to convince them that the gospel did not lose any of its power but rather it increased in power. 1. The Healing of Acneus (vv. 82-85). This man's needy condition appealed to the apostle to us in their semi-dead state. Like his Master, Peter could not refuse the needed help. In this he does not need the needed help. He confidently appeals to the power in the name of Christ. He said, "Jesus Christ healest thee." The man who was baptized immediately arose and made his bed. Peter wisely kept this miracle from being the end by making it the means of healing and was the preaching of the gospel.
2. The Raising of Dorcas (vv. 36-40).
This woman was full of good works and almreads which she called "did," not what the Christian woman. Her death was a real loss as was evidenced by the mourning of those who had been killed. The Christian woman would use their needles as Dorcas did there would be much less of that profitees fancy done. She did not have the disciples sent for Peter. This shows their growth in faith in Jesus. She is the example of Jesus in putting them all forth. At his command her soul came back to live in her body and the people to be lieve on the Lord.
In God's Purpose
In no case does origin determine value. From the religious point of view, the dignity and worth of man in any case in God's purpose can be determined. The case is affected by the particular method of the working—Henry Churchill King.
Much Difference
There is as much difference between self-reliance and self-conceit as there is between the North and South poles—all the difference in the world!

The Brittish scientific, after a long Senate, has decided that the encouragement of bookishness and a scientific hability among boys is vital. The members of the member parents make inquiries in forcing their child to invest in educational materials, forcing their child to invest in forcing does not educate because the forced knowledge is quickly forgotten. A moderate amount of study is required to think to think rather than study and healthy sports do them more good than books. The Indiana gingerland winds candle- Indiana Philosopher.

SUDDEN COOL SPELL
EMBARRASSED SCRIBE
Editor and Mrs. C. F. Richardson attended the commencement exercises at Prairie View Monday, encountering the temperature on route overland to the state college. The scribe left Houston in summer lily; sewerers suit, rain and wind at Prairie View made him feel and look rather uncomfortable. After witnessing the program of a hearty dinner at the home of Principal and Mrs. J. G. Geboren, along with Prof. Monroe J. N. Work of Kustwitz, a box of vegetables by Farm Superintendent Bridgeman, the editor felt somewhat recompensed for what he endured to make the jaint to Prairie View.
Mr. Bridgeman had products from his garden or farm on exhibit, the agricultural building, and it was "sum show." His tomatoes, the only ones available in this section in large quantities, cost $250 and English peas $250. Without any rain his farm is the only one in the county to produce cabbage that he has cultivated. The department is getting a fancy price, and can hardly supply the demand. He plans to quite a blight of the vegetable raised on his farm for consumption by the school. Really to appreciate his hard work in its respect, one must not only see the exhibit, but must verily吃 some of the products.

BUFFLE ALONG PROVES
BIG HIT; 'RUNNING
WILD' NEXT WEEK
"Shuffle Along"拍 a big hit at the Lyric Theatre this week. It will be followed next week with the Broadway production. "Running Wild!" The opening Monday afternoon drew the largest house that has ever greeted a company in the afternoon. Esher Bilon won new laurels with her "million dollar amph" and her golden voice, and Lelia Mitchell proved a star of first magnitude, being part of early captivating shows. "If You Haven't Been Vamped by a Brown Skin, You Haven't Been Vamped at All." The funnel "Love Will Find a Way," by Mila Skin, "Miss Skin Feek," by Crownwalt and "Onions" and Amon Davis, late of the "How Come" show, put all the comedy into the product. "Uncle Bemons" is "Uncle Jude" and John wake as "Father" were good, and all the politician of Jimtown
up to his reputation.
The cast includes Emma Hawkins,
Amy Wrightson, Agnes Anthony,
Anthony Hill, Hillie Kemp, Eve
W. Benton Overstreet, the musical director, formerly of the Standard Theater, has been joined by chauro Lyric orchestra, made the music of the show a real feature of the play. The costuming of the play came up to expectations. The chorus in one or two acts.
Messra, Miller and Slater promise that "Running Wild," which has never been presented here before, will excel "Shuffle Along."

The banquet at Straight College Monday night was a brilliant affair large, attended by T. S. J. Green, principal master of ceremonies and over two hundred graduates and friends of the school enjoyed the delicious lunchcone Mrs. Elen Thoraton historian for the alumni association told in a most interesting manner of the 800 graduate professions, industries and as wives. The substantial contributions the association has made to its alma mater, under Rev. H. H. Dunn, district superintendent and secretary of the American Missionary Association, under whose guidance to the toast, "The Essentials of a College" declared that an inspiring president, a trained faculty, adequate facilities, furnishings and sufficient campus will draw a student body capable of profiting by instruction, resulting in an alumni reflective credit on the in
Less Schools; Coats Higher.
Telling of the work of the American Missionary Association, the speaker stated that if operated now twenty-two schools, where formerly eighty-four were maintained but the smaller number with 539 teachers and 7,000 students cost 100 per cent more to operate than was formerly expended on the eighty-four.
Paying a fitting tribute to President J. P. O'Brien, who has served Straight so well and conscientiously, Rev. Dunn told of the progress of the school, under the present administration, and how admirably it is situated to serve the race. Reciting the finding of the general education board which discovered that such institutions as Harvard, Yale, Columbia and Princeton, drew the larger portion of their students from a radius of ninety miles, the speaker emphasized that within this distance Straight had a larger Negro population that any southern school.
Louis Blanchett, retiring president of the alumni association, was introduced and told of the inspiration his office had afforded him as he witnessed the loyalty of its members.
Dr. E. Charles Thornhill, the newly elected president, was presented and outlined some of the plans for his advancement, including the devotions to the advancement of Straight and to the success of the $3,000 fund, which the association has undertaken. The president was manified in the drive Mertle G拉莱 Branche reported. $250 raised. Miss Eda Simmons followed with a report of the progress of the $3,000 was needed in view of the growing recognition being accorded Straight. He was applauded when he told of the success of the parents of local graduates were showing in the college and cautioned the alumni to do their utmost to permeate the parents of local graduates. The alumni association had as their special guests the nine graduates receiving their Bachelorets of Art degrees, the two high school graduates and the twenty high school graduates. The commencement exercises were held Wednesday evening at Central Congregational church, the Rev. J. D. Campbell, inviting the commencement address.
A sacred concert was given by the Straight College choir on the night of May 11, at the Napoleon Avenue Press event. The audience was present. The opening selection was an anthem, "O Divine Reedermer" by Gunned. Several spiritualists were rendered and Mrs. Alma Lluna sang during the evening. After the anthem, "Listen to the Lama," which was to have closed the program, service was given to the students to thank Mrs. Hubbard and members of the choir, and to proffer requests for "just one more." The choir sang on and to an appreciative liturgy of the listeners had dispersed, and before the evening was over many and voiced the hope that a similar concert might be arranged for next
mphants are even much more promising. These results have been accomplished against an opposition that has been long considered unreasonably heartless and consistent in its very machine-like plana and methods of procedure. But the effort has been made to improve the good of the men of the organization—men seeking only an opportunity for honest employment their God-given right to work, and for themselves and their families.
It is the wish of the president of the organization that has created such a state-wide interest (and even caused cool and haughty old Dallas to sit up and consult over plans for a good housecleaning) to know just who some (not all) of the men are who have labored with him tirelessly day in and day out, and who have never failed to respond to a call for service when needed during the nearly two years of�antiful life of the organization.

HOW TO SOLVE A CROSS-WORD PUZZLE
When the correct letters are placed in the white spaces this puzzle will allow you to find the correct letters in the black spaces. The letters are indicated by a number, which refers to the definition listed below the puzzle. Thus No. 1 under the column headed "horizontals" defines a word which will fill the white spaces up to the first black square to the right, and a number under the column headed "verticals" defines a word which will fill the white spaces below. No letters go in the black spaces. All words used are dictionary words, and the letters are indicated by technical terms and obsolete forms are indicated in the definitions.
C
The Ring-Eared Tigereet, in the Hottentot's chief pet;
He's a beast with many virtues to his credit.
He is nice, and tame and clever, he it rain or shiny weather,
Though his pedigree would shock you if you read it.
When he climbs up in a tree, it would make you grin to see
The way this tough old cogger goes to bed:
With his ringlea ears, somehow, he just circles a stout bough,
And he sleeps there hanging straight down from his head.

The Tacna-Arica
Dispute
Llamas Used as Beasts of Burdena.
(prepared by the National Geographic Society) In taking the first step toward a peaceful resolution, Chile confronted, primarily between Chile and Peru, by deciding that a plebiscite shall be held, among Coatldea, Chile, and two other countries, he has helped to heal a wound that has remained open since the some-what successful peace agreement in the Pacific." That conflict, between Chile on one side, and Peru and Coatldea on the other, closed in 1884 with a peace agreement.
The Tacna and Arica question can perhaps best be understood, if it is taken as a rough American equivalent of the Dengxi corridor, all jumbled together. On the surface, the Tacna Africa matter in late years may appear to have been merely a question of location and how, but there is a great deal behind it. As a matter of fact it is intimately concerned with questions that involve Boldvina as well as the country has no claim to the Tacna Africa area itself and has not been represented in the Washington negotiations. Wars, treaties that are no less important, valuations, valuable mineral deposits, strong military positions, national semitribal and politics—these are some of the many cross-currents that have shaped the Dengxi corridor and threeided aspects of the problem.
Before the War of the Pacific Peru not only included Tacna, the northernmost division now under Chilean administration (what is now known as "Tacna" then consisted of two divisions, "Tacna" and "Arica"), but also Tarapaca, the next province to the south. Peruvian territory, in other words, then extended some 800 miles farther south than the southern boundary of Peru now shown on the map. Tarapaca is nearly three times as large as Tacna, and in it are much more extensive nitrate deposits than there are in the latter. The loss of Tarapaca, therefore, was of much greater moment to Peru than the loss of Tacna (Tacna-Arica). Tarapaca does not enter the present controversy, however. The treaty that terminated the War of the Pacific ceded this rich province to Chile without qualification. Tacna was not ceded. The treaty provided that Chile should have control of it for ten years, after which a plebiscite was to be held to determine its future sovereignty. The plebiscite was not held as provided and Chile continued to administer the territory while Peru protested. By President Coolidge's decision this delayed plebiscite is to be held in the near future. Though its nitrate deposits are not so great as those to the south still they are sufficiently large to make Tacna worth striving for.
Bolivia has been and continues to be a deeply interested spectator in all negotiations between Peru and Chile. Bolivia is also interested in the connection with the Pacific, the present Chilean province of Antarctica. She is also interested in the sea from Chile. That country would not sell any of her own territory but was willing to sell a strip of disputed territory in the Antarctic region to this; so Bolivia has had to remain isolated from salt water, but continues to hope that whichway we can reach the ocean a path of her own to the ocean. Though much of the land in Tacca is rather desolate, and in barring the sea, Bolivia has managed hauled across the great desert wastes to many localities, the river that runs through the city of Arica and the vast strip is delightful. Arica has been called the "most beautiful port between Panama and Chile." The rivers 855 feet above sea level, shell
teens its harbor and is the "stick over the door" for mischief-making invaders. The town is also the terminus of the road and the modern railway to that city. In the eastern part of the province in the Andes there are rich areas of agriculture, which can be irrigated on a small scale can be practiced in some of the valleys between the Andes and the Pacific throughout the northern part of the Andes. Agriculture is agriculturally than the rest of the arid region. There irrigation on a much larger scale is practicable and can be produced. Irrigation dates back to pre-Spanish days. Then as now agriculture was dependent on the streams irrigated with water from the Andes in irrigated valleys from the Andes an old irrigation customs have survived from Incas days. Sunset is the time fixed for transferring the water from the Andes to the valley, several hundred feet below the inclosing hills, the instant of sunset occurs earlier at the western end of the valley. After the sun has set in the lowlands it continues for some time to illuminate the snowy slopes above, which glow with ruby light, then sunshines on milky white and into darkness.
To avoid controversy, the ancient Peruvians brought common sense to bear and agreed to consider it sunset at that moment when the sun ceased to illuminate the snow-clad mountain peaks. This method, known as "calculating the sky view," is still in vogue in the province of Tacna.
As to the origin of the nitrate deposits the discovery of which was the genesis of the Tacna-Arica controversy, scientists disagree. Some claim that it had its origin in seaweed of an ancient period.
The nitrate fields stretch for several hundred miles along the pampas' western rim, which marks the edge of the ancient flood waters.
The process of production is simple. The loose rock is carried by mule teams, or cars suspended to cables, to the little railways which circulate through the nitrate establishments, and on to the crushing plant, where, after being broken into small pieces, it is thrown into iron vats and boiled until the dissolved saltpeter can be filtered.
When crystallized it is cleaned, and the finished saltire, or nitrate of soda, packed in bags and sent to the nearest port. The greater portion now comes to the United States to enrich our soil and to be used in the manufacture of explosives.
Iodine Production Limited.
Iodine is the most important nitrate solution, is the most important byproduct of the caliche rock. By agreement among the nitrate establishments, its production is limited to 100 tons per year. The market may not be overstocked.
Operated for the most part by Chilien and British capital, 129 of these nitrate establishments locally, are scattered over the pumps back of Pliagas, Iquique, and Antofagatas, their tail chinies. The pumps from the trains which runs from Tacca south, the myriad twinkling lights of these strange desert towns are the most important problem altogether dependent for sustenance on the world of trees and pastures. All the coastal cities in the region of Chile are in a problem in securing an adequate water supply. The water used by the people of Molendo, Peru, is brought from the sea by a pipeline Iquique gets its water through a pipe line 148 miles long, and at Antofagatas water is piped 250 miles from the sea. Obviously water service is expensive.

MAKING A FINAL STAND IN BUSINESS AREA.
The Informer's attention has been cited to the fact that very few, if any, sites can now be purchased by colored people in the downtown area of Houston; and in this contention it is cited that the colored Odd Fellows experienced some little difficulty in erecting a building on their site at Louisiana and Prairie. Of course there were other contributing causes to the objections raised against the erection of a temple by the Odd Fellows, which we deem unnecessary to discuss here.
The Informer has noted one or two pieces of down-town property for sale or long lease, and it strikes this paper that our group, either collectively through a fraternity, secret order or individual, should hold of all available land and buildings in this particular section of Houston's business area; for in a few more years the price of this reality will reach such dizzy heights that its acquisition by our group will be almost prohibitive.
Three colored orders own property now in the business area of Houston, and their property is enhancing in value each succeeding year; and if the city ever reaches such growth and expansion that these orders are to call, by elsewhere and build, a healthy price for their holdings.
In other words, shrewd business men always purchase property in the wake of the city's growth and expansion, in order that their holdings might enhance in value and bring topnotch prices in case of a sale or long term lease.
Our people have been rather tardy in learning this lesson, both ds sites for business and commercial purposes and resi- right to have nice and comfortable homes, but Houston is growing so rapidly that the present downtown buildings owned and operated by our group will prove totally inadequate within decade; and if our professional degree in architecture in their professions, or in their businesses, especially in buildings of our own, these homes will are long become liabilities.
Business judgment and prudence suggest that we look well to our future, and we keep pace with Houston's marvelous and wonderful growth; for it has been charged against our group that we do not keep pace with the communities in which we live and thus we soon become persona non grata in our business and resi- dental homes. Virtually all the financial power of America is centralized in one street in New York City; most American cities have their
The price of land is rapidly advancing in Southern cities, many of whose growth's is startlingly phenomenal; and we shall be wise, indeed, if we permit our foresight to take precedence over our hindsight.
RACES WILL AMALGAMATE—THE SUN WILL GO OUT
By WILLIAM PICKENS
For the Associated Negro Press,
The editor of the Daily, Press of Newport News, Virginia, is awkwardly worried about the first,—why not also worry about the second calamity! Worry will do just as much good in the one case as in the other. The Press writes a book, a school which, in order to appease some of the Southern sentiment as that shown by the Press does about all it can and, some think, more than it ought. But the Press editor would have汉堡Institute, a school for the education of colored people, from the first year of its establishment to millions, from being ultimately swallowed up by a mixed and mostly light albatross, "huge" race of 10 million people, from their own school, when their Southern white "friends" come to visit—and to teach the Negroes their "place" by giving the visiting whites the opportunity to say, the Negroes should not be good as they are good as they are. To prevent the whites who work at the school from ever meeting socially with their colored composers on the faculty—and especially to prevent them
To teach the Negroes from different books and different ideals, and train them to a different (lower) plane than the sacred whites of that community. To have "reserved seats for white people" in a Negro school. So that the white people, who white friends may come and feel important and comfortable whenever they visit the Negro school and to patronize the institution. To prevent the Negroes from Hampton from ever cating with or other intimate contact with the Negroes, with Motions of Truckee, or other colored people, even in Boston or at the North Pole. To prevent the Negroes from the "peculiar customs" of the South, which are so necessary, as the Press informs us, to "the preservation of the integrity of our Anglo-Saxon stock." With this edict, is that he heard that John D. Rockefeller, Jr. gave one million dollars to Hampton Institute, for he complains bitterly that this Negro institution is richer than the University of Virginia, and "has the finest library in this section of Virginia," among its other similar. That is, in order to preserve Anglo-Saxon stock, it is necessary to keep a Negro school poor, poorly equipped and still more poorly instructed. Anglo-Saxon schools are poor, powerful among the puny and big among the little. Negro repression is necessary to Anglo-Saxon greatness. What an insult to all that is
The Press editor says that an equal chance and equal intelligence and culture for all children is associated with a romantic nature and the belief that legitimate marriage is natural. He forgets that all about the three million or so illegitimate mutants. He forgets that an illegitimate child is just as complete a human as an legitimate one. He forgets that the children of illegitimate parents are not to know that this great army of mutants is not the product of Negro intelligence and an African Ignoise ignorance and degradation that the reality is really race is when the race is not the best chance to "inspire" things; and that the Negro girl trained in good schools and the white one in which the white man cannot plant a vine is not the best chance to win wildly. He always crying out against amalgamation, are closely responsible for all the amalgamation that has taken place. An old trick: Telling murder and
The Houston Informer
INFORMOGRAMS
Old timers miss the sign of the coming of spring—the Bock Beer signs.
This school year has been unduly marked with student uprisings and strikes, which cause one to wonder why. Are our college boys being badly advised or is it the natural outbursts of youth?
The commandable action of the shear of Dallas County in protecting the two colored men charged with the murder of two white men and assaulted by a man, proves that mobs can be successfully handled when faced by the right kind of officers.
Of all places on earth, the South has the least excuse for the lynching of Negroes in Texas, charged with the unpardonable crime, it only takes a few hours to indict, and the unpardonable recognition channels of law. What more could civilized people wish?
One daily paper of our city seems to be of the opinion that there are being pulled off among their group. Wonderful news has long elonged to a church which held a cone-year? That's the kind of burden vention every month, practically, in
We have worked our brains overtime trying to figure out how it is possible to get to the right place we can open a little old musty hole in the wall between two Negro business and get on "seay street" in less than a mile. We have been farther and farther back. How is it?
We were extremely fortunate to have the pleasure of listening to what we were hearing. We have restele sermons we have been privileged to hear, on last Sunday morning at Prairie View, Owle, College.
