The Beesle Coleman Flying Circus at the Houston Aerial Transportation Center in Houston will be one of the most novel entertainment ever pulled off in this neck of the woods. The Beesle Coleman's flight is a parachute jump into a daredevil stunts are distinct features of this circus in the sky, but many of them are more dramatic and matter. About a billion thrill of the evening and of a lifetime were fearless matters. About whom were women, take a birdwatcher view of Houston from the sky. The sky was a big drop off the ground got a kick out of seeing his friends go up and speeches were needed to say that this was the first time the colored public of the city was needless to see that the city is needless to see that they disprove the city, and the management was more than glad to see them disprove the city. The only difficulty experience is in carrying them up with people so fast as they wanted to go. On account of various Juneeast events, the crowd the public is clamoring for a repertoire. In answer to this request another circle will be held in an early morning.

"According to General Bullard's own statement the 2nd DIVision was under his command and no other NEGro soldiers of cowardice and inefficiency because of the mishandling of the attack, so it is fact that they were only called on to attack on November 10th and 11th AFC, and not the Army and accomplished as much as any other division in that attack, one of the worst attacks on the aid of some white troops which had gotten into a tight place. If the attack had been made to the aid of the Army should be placed elsewhere than in this division when the First Army in 1938, there might have been some reason to reproach the colored recruits, but in the November offensives the NEGro soldiers on poor leadership there was plenty of time to reorganize the entire outfit. If it were deemed necessary

"Let Us Reason Together"—
College Court is now conceded, by all who have seen it, to be the greatest buy, in the way of high class homestead, in Houston. It is the location of the largest high school construction in the city and proved colored addition in the city. This fact can be easily verified by comparison with other additions. In approaching College Court, you do not have to go through such a section as you find on Odnin, do you have to go across the street and drive along ofstead of walking street car lines, along dusty and bumpy roads to the W. Webster and W. Gray to drive over in going and to town.
"Let Us Reason Together"---
College Court is now conceded, by all who have seen it, to be the most prestigious of high schools in the country. The prestit, best dressed and most restricted and most highly improved colored addition in the city. This fact can be easily verified by comparison with other additions in approaching College Court. In approaching College Court, no one can be denied a seat. And on Ocala Avenue, no do you have to the S. A. & A. P. switch yards. Instead of following street cars along, along bumpy roads and on the sidewalks, you have to drive over in to and from town. College Court does not lie the way out because of such bumpy roads and andisy and dirty factories, such as a car wash and a dirty factory, between the streets and with the approach restricted relief.
a moderate rate of speed, it takes just eight minutes to go from the Odd Fellows' building to College Court, with a pleasant ride all the way.
a moderate rate of speed, it takes just eight minutes to go from the College Court to the City Court and just one minute to do a delivery. If College Court is the best, and it is—if the prices are no higher than in several other colored additions, and they are not—and if you get more value for your money—and YOU Dare, College Court has in any other place in the city, why do you, who attend the best, buy where you pay the same and get honesties of a quality inferior to any College Court has to offer?
We buy sold some of the leading color men in Houston lots in College Court, and among them is the builder of this paper: Mr. C. F. Richardson, and the first one to build in College Court: Mr. Abe Grabenheimer. They will attest to the truth of every word heinous printed.
To you who have seen College Court, but who are waiting and there are scores of you—I am speaking now: Just why you are waiting in the city. Then, why do you wait? So these lots will all be sold and you will have look your opportunity. Don't lose it! Get one now while there are still some to be had.

This should be a year for rejoicing and thanks to Almighty God for the successes and accomplishments of Odd Fellows and Ruthites. May I urge as Grand Master that all Delegates come to the Grand Lodge and Grand Household of Ruth imbued with a spirit of co-operation and good will that the great accomplishments thus far had be an incentive to even do greater things in the future and more determined than ever that there be no steps backward by the Grand Old Order. The Temple will be officially opened by the Grand Lodge and Grand Household, we present among whom we expect Grand Master Edward H. Morris of Chicago. Come to Houston and let's make merry and rightfully so.

The children were asked what caused the carbon dioxide and they replied the carbon was the cause of the name on the second sheet and they replied the carbon was the effect told them that their lives and actions had the same effect as the names affected by their individual actions and as young Christians they should be affected by their individual actions should be for the better. The parents attending the service and the many compliments of the institution and many complimented Dr. McClendon on the simple way in which he presented the great truths.

GENERAL BULLARD SHOOTS THE BULLI
battalions during future martial conflicts.
Bullard was connected with the 92nd Division of the American Expeditionary Forces, and states that the colored officers under him, as well as soldiers of color, were a monumental joke, or words to him. Alabama, where a colored man has no rights that a white man is bound to respect and having been cultured and trained in the Southern University of Negropholia, graduating cum magna laude, it is not surprising to The Informer to see General Bullard vainly trying to uphold the traditions of his alma mater and section and to show that there is something after all in a list for, verily, General Bullard is certainly "shooting the bull".
In the German officers often commented upon the heroism赦idity of the "black devils" (so dubbed by the boches behind hell could not stop the colored troopers), to say nothing both and other American commanders and high military officers these colored soldiers were as cowardly and inefficient as General Bullard paints them in his "bull"-sheviki syndicated articles, then why would General John J. ("Black Jack") Pershing, highest military officer in A. E. F. Durham, put prizes high for their military skill and dependent on the field battle.
Another thing: If General Bullard remained as far from the lines of battle as it is reported some other officers did during the military clashes with the Germans, then the poor fellow was unable to see, not hardly with highly magnified field glasses, just as the German officer described and not as one having authority and first-hand information.
From the fall of Crispus Attucks on Boston Common in 4776 to the storming of the fortress of Metz in the World War, this General Bullard is the first high American officer to ever charge the enemy in the battle of Metz and afraid to acquit himself on the battlefield as a true soldier. Despite the fact that he was a slave during the Revolutionary War, the set-to of 1812 with England and the Civil War, the Negro temporarily cast aside his chains and fetters and helped to liberate America from British oppression and to save the union from disunion. Even granting for argument's sake what General Bullard charges is true, in whole or in part, who is responsible for such conduct on the part of the colored officers and soldiers? What does General Bullard's own home state contribute to institutional, moral and military development and training of its colored troops? Does the general expect "boys" (that what he and his all his called Negro men in the South) to acquit themselves on the firing line like men? Why does Brew Ballard" and expect so much of the Negro soldiers whom it came to shooting and killing those white men (German), when right in Alabama, Bullard's home state, they will lynch a colored man or woman for daring to merely question the veracity of a white man or white woman, or for walking too near them on a sidewalk, or for driving too close to white people in the street. What youths have had access to West Point, Annapolis and the other military schools of the country, while only four combatant units in the regular army have the only openings for the colored youths of the country; save during recent years when New York and Illinois permitted the organization of the Negro youths to serve as national guardmen. Only a blustering and bull-shooting swachh-buller would fly to print and condemn officers and soldiers, even

The test was located and is being drilled by the Retrieve Oil Corporation, a company with three of three tests of 3600 feet in the hope of thoroughly exploiting the under lease—Houston Chancellle.

Being such a true son and typical protege of the South, our General Bullard just could not resist the ever-present temptation to "give the 'niggers' hell," and the poor, misinformed and misguided army officer—who even saw service with the colored troops—was forced to surrender his snatch victory from the jaws of defeat, after the white officers and soldiers had beaten a haスタy and "strategic" retreat—showed lack of familiarity with his subject matter, judging by the manner in which former white officers in the A. E. F. are condemning Bullard and resenting his slurs and aspersions cast upon American Negro soldier as a combatant and commissioned officer.
MRS. CATO GADDY ND MORE
Mr. Cato Gaddy, one of Houston's well known and highly respected city officials, has the family residence in Chanveyville, the end coming as a sequel to a long career of most eminent informers who stated to an Informer reporter during the week that his company
Really, if General Bullard were as dense and ignorant in military tactics and maneuvers as he is about the heroism, bravery and efficiency of the colored American soldier, it is small marvel that men under him would show cowardice, inefficiency and ignorance! Like priest, like people, like general, like officers and soldiers!
Why this belated effort to try to discredit colored commissioned officers and soldiers in combat units in the late European martial holocaust, and that by a man who owes his life today to colossal warfare, is a matter of fact, the reverse is the case; for numerous colored fighters and entire regiments were decorated and cited for bravery and heroism under galingen fire by both France and America, and some of the most daring and heroic exploits of the war are the stories of these soldiers. It is too late now for General Bullard, General "Bull," or General "Bull-sheikil" to endeavor to dim the lustre of the colored soldier's achievements on the battlefields of Europe or to take from him any of his merited honors, which he made possible by his struggles on the shot-ridden and sanguinary battlefields and in the safety and seclusion of some general's underground tent.
The Informer does not even dare to assume the position that some few colored soldiers may not have violated their oath and obligation and demonstrated that they were "yellow" under fire; they were not brave enough to carry out unanticipated units, then we are perfectly willing for General Bullard to have his little say and get all the glory and satisfaction imaginable and possible out of his "bull" story about the cowardice, incompetence and inefficiency of the Negro officer and soldier in the World and particularly those connected with his division, the 92nd Selah!

A matter of 200 miles, more or less, should not stand in the way of the adventurer Amundsen, who has been involved in the action, after being lost for the last two months. Doc Cook, who was proved, came back with slowing progress, yet still fled, while in truth he had not been anywhere near 500 miles of it. Amundsen is entirely too modest.

Another polar expedition set out for the "top of the world" last from Wisconsin, a little port of Maine.
The governor of Maine has already laid claim to all and all lands discovered by this, the McMullen and stand law will obtain in these lands. If so, we hereby renounce all claims against the government by right of previous discovery.
Won't it be a great day in the history of this grand and glorious Southland when each headline as is, "Hurricane Katrina" or "read Woman Hurt in Crash" as is used in cases when human beings are mentioned? It appears that our daily papers begin the Juneteenth at sunset on the 18th and extend it to sunrise on the 20th, when it comes to choreologizing for the celebration of Juneteenth. For their information we wish to note that Juneteenth consists of a celebration and all we can do is not please don't give us credit for doing.
