COLORED DENTIST OUTRAGED VOL. VII THE MIRROR By C. F. RICHARDSON. REWARD FOR SERVICES. As a reward for the services they have rendered the order, race and social family through their official contact at the recent grand lodge of the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows unanimously voted to give Grand Master H. G. Koege a 60-day vacation and a burial secretary, was given a 30-day vacation and $500. For the past four or five years Mr. Koege has been in failing health and the functions of his office as he has so much desired. He has given the order and race the best years of his life and this gift was a fitting recognition of his service. He emerged victorious in the recent fight conducted against him in the conduct and operation of the enquiry, thought that he had earned a much-needed and deserved reward. Mr. Riddle is in charge of the most important part of the Odd Fellows' machinery, and what the jurdition thinks of him and his past services. As the grand medical examiner, was given medical training, and worked to equip him to serve the order in his special sphere. As the regimental department (patriotic) was given money among the companies attending and participating in the examination of the Grand Park.

The conductor of The Mirror, having put in such a strenuous and exacting year, has about decided that he needs a little rest, or change of scenery, and has about concluded to his away to distant parts of the state and sister state, Oklahoma, to spend a few days with the "big guns" at the National Negro Business League. This will be the twenty-sixth annual gathering of the business men and women of the country in their national gathering, the organization having sprung into existence in Boston, Mass., in 1900; the late Booker T. Washington being largely responsible for the movement. Houston had originally planned to have a large representation at the Tulsa, Okla., session, but last minute excuses have been trotted out by quite a number of the business men, and it appears at this writing, that only a corporal's guard will represent "Heavenly Houston" next week at the National Negro Business League. Between editing the paper, looking after the wants of the nation in the Odd Fellows temple, he directed a Sunday school choir at his church, serving as president of the Coleridge-Taylor Choral Club, singing in the choir of his church and serving in the role of general utility man on divers and different occasions, the conductor of this department does not have very much to do; and for that reason he has deemed it wise, necessary and impertinent that he take a little rest at this season of the year or stay on the job continually and continuously and soon take that permanent rest in the "silent city." Since he somewhat admires the world and its contents, he is of the opinion that he just now to hasten an end to his earthly existence, and hence he can enjoy it on a brief vacation. Just whether we shall endeavor to drop our readers line by line "the spirit moves" in, or "where the drop falls" in, depends upon him. He himself too enraged in vacation to keep his readers "informed" through the Informer territory while away, and thus he returns him to his editorial sanctum. **READ** **NEW ORLEANS NEWS** **ON PAGE 5** **SPICY-RACY-NEWSY** THE HOUSTON INFORMER RACE NOTABLES IN LIMELIGHT No. 1: EDOUARD SCOTT.

Hampton, Va.—Through well-organized summer schools, colleges, and county training schools the number of students increased, according to B. C. Calwell of Hartford, Ky., field director of the Jeans and Slater Boards, who spoke recently to the Hampton Institute to describe the work he is doing done to train colored teachers in 17 Southern states, including Missouri and Arkansas. "The Southern states," he said, "build high school for colored boys and girls faster than they can train high school teachers. The movement is growing."

Mr. Caldwell said a good work was being done in many parts of the country, North as well as South, West as well as East. Mr. Caldwell paid warm tribute to Mr. Caldwell, who was a long-time teacher of 27 Jeanes teachers, who are rather uniformly distributed throughout the South.

One of the most outrageous and disgraceful crises in Houston's recent history was perpetrated Monday night, when a bunch of Houston Huns decoyed Dr. R. H. Ward, local colored dentist, from his home on a phone call, and then at the point of a revolver forced the dentist to enter an automobile and whisked him away where he was brutally and shamefully outraged. Dr. Ward, known to Houstonians as "Richard," (having been born, reated and educated here and his family being considered one of the best families in this section of the state), received a telephone call during Monday night, purporting to call him on an emergency case to the 1700 block on Ruthven Street. (The dentist lives at 1212 Ruthven.) When the dentist responded to the call at the address given over the telephone, he was told that no one at that address had phoned for a dentist; whereupon he immediately left the premises and started back to his domicile. 8 point to follow here Ah automobile was parked some 15 and 20 feet away from the house he had just approached and when one of his feet was in the dentist, thinking, perhaps, the car was waiting to carry him to the proper address, replied in the affirmative, according to his veron. When he had done this the man (a member of the police) told him to sit in the tinted and placed a reviver at his abdomen, threatening to "hoot out" a hound if he gave an alarm. Dr. Ward was then made to get into the car, where he was driving the rear seat with blackened faces, and was driven to the western section of the city—out near Ward drive, where he was forced to leave the car. He was driving the front street when the Hume could conceive with their infamous "nutur." According to the dentist, the white man with the reviver remarked that "I have been laying for you a long time, and I am going to streeten the doctor to get into the auto at the point of the gun. When these huns (Dr. Ward assert that one of them replied to the name of the dentist) were in the streeten the doctor to get into the clothes from his back, tied his hands behind him and then pured tar and feathers on him; also carolio on his back; confeited his watch, money, checks, check-book, his shoes, his underwear, his underwear, his mite treatment of the coat and shoes. In some intplainable manner the dentist extricated himself from the rope and went to a nearby house and then told him of his mite treatment and predicament. Mr. Carter jumped into his auto and drove out where the dentist was and brought him home, carrying along a bathrobe to cover and protect himself. When seen by an informer representative Tuesday to foreseeion Dr. Ward, who was not showing much ill effect from his harrowing experiences with the Nazis, he stated that the leader of the trio told him that they had been instructed by the local head of the Ku Klux Klan to give him this baptism; remarking to the dentist that he (the Mimpie) leaded him to the baptism, the khan had instructed the khan khan had instructed PRICE: 5 CENTS NO.13 AGED Doctor of Huns; best Made In offices in Odd Fellows Tenn- y Call—Abducted in Auto and others—Robbed and Left Tied and Brought to City—District "Investigation"—No Arrests and disgraceful crimes in Hous- sted Monday night, when a bunch H.

The dentist says that they did not apply the lash to his whip to him, but that he would have been able to which to arrange his affair and shake the dust of Houston off his feet. Early Tuesday morning Dr. Ward reported the outrage to some of the father, and to the district attorney. The latter asked the dentist any number of questions and promised to make an investigation of the brutality. He was taken into the Milam street, at 49% Milam street, Dr. Ward had a little run-in (nothing serious) with a white youth from a local dental supply house; the dentist forly resisted his request to take his head when he (the bullying white ruffian) refused to refuse his hat in the dentist's private office in the presence of a female patient. For this gentle, kind man, he had no patience for the unbendable no matter nor common decency, the dentist was arrested and fined.

He is also the cover of John Edwards, who was shot when a bandit attempted to rob Solitariness of Civilization HE HAD been in the wilds of South America for five years, living among ancient tribes along the river, and now he was in New York. Undecided as to whether he should dine alone or should hunt up some animals, and now he was in city, he wandered toward the telephone booth. A page waved to him an eager-faced young man. "The young man," the "Amazon explorer" Prentice gave a nod. "Tp from the Mongol University." "I came from a story from some about the headhunters and cannibals you've been living among." "A story?" calculated Prentice, who was a scientist, a scientist, a non-romancer. Whatever I may care to say will appear in the scientific journals. "I am a scientist, my highbrow stuff. Just a few good yarn about your adventures." "I won't word!" started Prentice's word. "That's small good night!" And he turned away, thoroughly exasperated. "D—n those reporters!" he said loud, addressing In front of him, in a big upholstered armchair, a sit young woman with an earlobe that is directly at him, and at the voluble excitation she gave a decided nod. "He't too bad!" she murmured. "The man is so handsome." The words and the glance she gave him were friendly, the first warming experience he had encountered since he was a child. "They don't have reporters where I came from—the wild of Brazil." "Oh, Brazil!" she explained; and then, with a quick flash, she looked away, as if she had inadvertently heard because she too much interested. Prentice moved off, toward the telephone directory he glanced over his shoulder. "Are you interested in Brazil?" she asked, coming back to the young "Very much," she smiled. "You are not a New Yorker, so I care for places beyond Manhattan Island." "Is the Amazon country we speak to anyone we want to. I haven't got a phone," she said. "I know, she said." New York is a lonely place, especially in the evening, when you want someone to play "Exactly," declared Prentice, and hesitated. "I say—if you're a stranger here, like me—couldn't we—couldn't we have dinner together?" Again the flash and a veiling of the blue eyes. Then a half-defiant toss of the pretty head, "I think that would be very pleasant." "Good," said Prentice. "And since I don't suppose you're quite such a complete stranger as I am, you shall name the place." The girl named a restaurant and they taxied thither; she chose the dinner, which was very much to Prentice's taste. Couples were dancing on the shining floor and the music was very heavy. "I don't know anything about these new dances," he said, "but I'm willing to try." They danced three times before they left the restaurant, and when they came outdoors Prentice suggested a music hall. They sat through a revue, which Prentice interspersed with more stories of his adventures with cannibals. He was having a splendid time, and insisted on topping off the evening with a visit to a cabaret, more food, more yarns and more dancing. At last they came out into the night and Prentice halted a taxicab. "Where shall I drive you?" he asked. "Back to the hotel?" "No," she said, and gave him a number. Practice helped her in and settled down in the corner. "It’s been a long time," she said. "I am pleased I impose in a way I owe it all to her beauty reporter." "That beautiful reporter" also murmured, "my Prentice, I owe you an explanation. I'm on the staff of the Evening Era, and I went to a little story about you for my paper." Prentice sat up. "You won’t." "We’ve seen the same outcome every time," she said. "What a headline: ‘Famous Explorer Defies Civilization!’ He Prefers the Headmistress to Dance Modern Jazz!’ You’ll look: The laughing stock of scientific data, no, you won’t." she said. "Because I won’t write that story. I tell the Era I'm sorry, but Mr. Prentice had nothing to say." She danced down sight from the corner of the taxi. "You’re a gentleman," said Prentice. "I mean I could have I’ll be fine if I’ll be 66. If you’ll impute with me tomorrow I’ll give you the first authorized account of my discoveries, if you’ll promise to print only what I” I promise,” agreed the young woman.

EDITOR FLYNN SAYS DOES NOT ENDORSE SEGREGATION EDITOR FLYNN SAYS DOES NOT ENDORSE SEGREGATION Editor R. A. Flynn, publisher of the National Negro Voice, denies that he endorses segregation and says that an injustice was done him in the article appearing in The Houston informers' press notes that his new article is applied by the white association of commerce. When his attention was called to the fact that the association of commerce had a large number of copies of his article, declaring that the regulations are innumerable, theன. The main exchanges papers with the association. When his attention was called to the fact that colored people in New Orleans are spending $10,000 fighting the vile segregation — ordinances were the same as the commoner of the city commission that the city was so drastic that grave doubts were entertained as to its constitutionality, and, that the proponents of the measure would take his article as an indecisionary and the whole목표 will be accepting this invasion of their rights, Editor Flynn said that his opinions were his opinions and that what he had to say could not affect the issue to the case being the issue of States. Supposed Court would be decided on the facts and he decided on what he had to say could not adversely affect the issue. The editor explains that his position is that increased education and morality and commercial development is what our people should contend for. When told that it was not necessary to agree to segregation to still contend for or innumerable rights was the same as the state of the program he outlines is more important than fighting segregation. Offered the columns of The Informer to defend himself he said the reply he has prepared is such a hot one and contains such an attack on Harrison M. Gillian, that he was certain it would not be published. Assured that what he wished to say would be published just as he wrote it, Mr. Flynn said he had arranged for its publication elsewhere. What Mr. Flynn has to say relative to the writer matters little. Any Negro who has little enough judgment to attempt a critical time, to try to explain that segregation is inevitable, beneficial or should not be fought, can not escape the condemnation of thinking people and indulgence in personalities will not lessen the disrespect he brings upon himself—Harrison M.

PRIMARY TOPIC—A Picture of a JUNIOR TOPIC—Good and Bad Picture INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC—Young PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC—The Flesh Against the Spirit. Having shown in chapters 3 and 4 of this epistle that the believer is not deceived by the application, Paul makes practical application of this doctrine. 1. Christian Freedom (v. 15, 15). 2. An Occasion to the "Flesh" (v. 13). Liberty is not license. The notion that when one is free from the law in actual material size, but in the exegetical and devouring one another (v. 15).

HOUSTON, TEXAS, SATURDAY, AUGUST 15, 1925 HOUSTON HUNS ON RAMPAGE AGAIN! The brutal and barbaric treatment administered unto and upon Dr. Richard H. Ward, young colored dentist of this city, by a trio of white Hummish brutes and barbarians Monday night, constitutes a grave offense and every arm of the law should and must be employed to bring the guilty culpits to justice, or else Houston need not be astonished at future incidents of this type, nor their ill effects and reactions! According to the race dentist, the leader of the "terrible trio" contended that he was only obeying orders from the "higher ups" in the local khan and that he was not going to commit every outrage as ordered by the local kleagle, cyclops or lizard (whatever his official title is). Despite the depredations and activities of the klan here and elsewhere in the past, the Informer is loath to believe that the Houston klan ordered or authorized these Hans to outrage the dentist and then commit robbery; as they piled his wallet, watch, cheeks, check-book and certain wearing apparel. The klan ordered or authorized brutes and unregenerated knaves were merely trying to average some personal grudge against the race dentist and employed this klan stuff in an amateur effort to cover up their crime, and at the same time endeavor to frighten and intimidate Dr. Ward. The dentist states that the leader of the mobocratic and helloric trio gave him three days to leave town, intimating that he would be arrested and unresolved period, additional violence would be meted out to him. The Informer never has been able to see where or why any man or set of men would arrogate unto himself or themselves such super-loyal authority and endeavor to set himself or themselves up as judge, jurors and executioner in such affairs; and, since Dr. Ward's reputation has been so strong, the most respectable and substantial families, his attackers and assailants will do well to try this "get out of town" game on somebody else. (Those days are gone forever, as it is from Chicago, Nova Scotia or Helena, and, if the young Negroes did not run from the Huns of Europe, surprise should not be registered when they refuse to take to the tall timbers at the mere behest of the police.) Not since the Cockrill pseudo-emasulation and torture by members of the local klan, has any such incident transpired in this community that has so wrought up and incensed the colored populace; for the victim of this latest Humilh outrage and barbary had committed no serious offense; and if these cowards were trying to get even with him for his attitude in demanding that white men remove their hats in his private office in the presence of women they merely remind one of dogs braying and barking at the moon. No amount of brute force, tar and feathers and robberies will influence any colored man with backbone and stamina, who maintains an office in buildings owned by his race and pays his own rent, in disagreement or dissenting with Dr. Ward's original position, and in the private offices, especially when in the presence of our women. If white men and youths are unwilling to doff their hats in the private offices of colored doctors, dentists, professional and business men, where good manners and common courtesy warrant and justify such procedure, then it will be best for all concerned to members of the white race to stay out of such buildings and offices. Here is a good case not only for the district attorney's office, but also for dprl local committee on Inter-Racial Cooperation; for such outages are to disrupt and steer the otherwise friendly relations that have hereoforeported between the two faces in the courtroom. We will discuss the elements that make for interracial hatred, antipathy and strife. Men who seek to take the law into their own hands and mete out summary punishment upon those who have incurred their wrath and displeasure, are endangering their physical well-being, inviting them to court with slaughter. The leading white citizens of Houston can not afford to permit a band of Hunnish hoodlums and mobocratic ruffians to give this city a black eye and precipitate an ugly and nasty inter-racial situation here, and they will be acting wisely and prudently to put a quietus upon these trouble-breeders before it is everlastingly too hard. "A stitch in time will save nine," and "being forewarned is forearmed." Selah!

VENEREAL DISEASES: DESTROYERS OF HEALTH AND WEALTH. By the United States Public Health Service. Large as this sum is, it is falls to include many issues which may be charged to syphilis and gonorrhea and which, in some cases, are not borne by the control work in the army and navy (which was between 15 and 20 million men in 1980). The cost of control work in the army and navy is between 15 and 20 million dollars. The cost of operations on married women made necessary by innocent gonorrhea infection. Neither does it include funeral expenses. It omits the cost of operations on married women, share in the operating expenses of the courts, jails and reformatories, whose venereal disease may cause. It takes no account of millions of dollars paid to beneficial and legitimate use. Where all these things are taken into account beneficial and legitimate use. Where all these things are taken into account greatly increased. At the Australian Medical Congress in 1923 it was said that venereal disease caused Australia an economic waste of $400,000,000 per year. Furthermore, it is uneasy. Furthermore, it is uneasy. Using army figures as a basis, it has been estimated that the 10,000,000 men employed in the manufacturing industry in the United States are 6,838,000 men in the same category of other class of men. In the cases of 1,750 employed with a syphilic history, treated by a certain company physician for infertility, syphilis caused delays would repair 35 syphilic employees who lost 13,364 working days. To these men, $35,415 million was costed through syphilis was not the original cause of the injuries, by prolonging the healing time it was responsible for a large part of the economic waste.

Copyright, 1924, by Associated Negro Press. Are there any Moors living in Spain today?—B. C. H., Detroit, Mich. Yes, a very large number. Also a great part of the southern Spanish population are descendants of the Moors. Have the West Africans any universities?—S. 8. W., Indianapolis, Ind. No. There are many mission schools, but no university of the name. The West Africans have been agitating for a university for some years. As present the wealthier of the natives send their children to Europe to be educated. Who was the African woman mentioned in history as the ruler of the island of Rhodes—F. D. Corinth. Miss. Polyxo. She was a native of Argos in Greece and a descendant of the Egyptian colonists. Was Tizhakah, the Cushite invader, of Judah, a Negro?—K. L. P. Denver, Colo. Cushite was a general term applied by the Jewish writers to black races and especially to Ethiopians. Tizhakah was probably the same person as Tearehon, the Ethiopian conqueror mentioned by Strabo and the same as Tarakos, the Ethiopian king of Egypt, whose name appears in the list of Manetho. Was Caracalla, emperor of Rome, a full blooded Negro?—F. W. Cairo, III. No. His father, Septimus Severus, was a native of Africa and his mother, a Syrian woman, wife of Sqverus. Severus as emperor proved a great and fine leader, but his son, Caracalla, was something of a tyrant and despot. He built the Caracallian baths, which were one of the wonders of Rome. Who were the Etruscans? N. N. L. Clarinda, Iowa. The Etruscans were the pre-historic people who inhabited Italy previous to the founding of Rome. They belonged according to eminent archegeologists to the great Hamitic family of Pelas gians who were spread throughout the Mediterranean countries. These people were of African blood. Did Napoleon possess any African blood?—G. F. D. Boston, Mass. Napoleon was a native of the Island Corsica and an Italian blood. If one wished to take the blood of all that Latin races are of mixed blood, then one might say that Napoleon must certainly not Nordic. I would hardly say, however, that he was of African Blood. What great monument it is at Abu Sisi, the island in the latter place — F. L. J. DAY, Ohio. The rock hewn temple built by Ramas the Great is located at Abu Sisi on the island of Corsica, catacract. The four great statues, two on either side of the entrance, are also faramed. Who was Antar? R. D. S. DEN, Coo. An Arabian hero whose exploits are sung throughout Arabia to this day. He was the hero of his bravery and rose to be the national hero of Arabia. He deserves a "black and swarthy as an elephant. How early in history did Negroes make their appearance in America? According to the latest developments in archeology, the Negro made his appearance in America in 1650 and was brought to the time of Columbus. He was 50 before the time of Columbus. He well known as American archeologist, man of the past, was the real founder of the Artie and Mayan civilizations of America. These Arabe established a native settlement as well as minding and voyaged west. Michaudon, Mexico, being the land of review in the remains of these civilizations has left their people very current among these peoples, and who are pure African.
