"JIM" EWING ON THE JOB.
HURBAH FOR HOUSTON
With 7 physicians, 3 dentists and 2 pharmacists in attendance at the reopening of the Houston Association in Chicago, Houston led all Texas cities with representatives, and the association produced professional gathering, Houston contributed 12 or 43 per cent.
This is a most wonderful showing and all the men and women realize that such contact and broadening experience is necessary if they are to efficiently serve the community they would attend this association, but a new day has dawned upon them, and, not being satisfied with small things, they have practiced and women have decided that they shall avail themselves of various opportunities for better service to suffering humanity; they should be here.
We wish to communicate and conratuate these physician, surgeons, dentists and pharmacists with their determination to hold high the banner of "Heavenly Houston," by both attending the annual meeting and dental work in some of the leading hospitals and dental centers of America. Texas now to entertain the Lone Star State Medical, Dental and Pharmaceutical Association in Houston. Hurry for Houston!
THANKS, SISTER HAYNES!
One of our friends remarked, upon reading this column about our overland trip last year, that he noticed we always mentioned or put a final of stress upon our "eats," and thought that we vacated from our sanctum but did not vacate from the table.
That friend was eminently correct, for if there is anything we like better than a good meal, ple or cake, it is another good meal, ple or cake.
Learning that we planned a trip to Oklahoma and Northern Texas, Mrs. Jeanie Haynes, wife of Brer L. C. Haynes, 1419 Saulnier, baked and presented us with a big coconut cake prior to our departure for Oklahoma, and we ate so much of that wonderful cake on the overland trip that ye scribe was dubbed "Mr. Jake Eater" by a member of the auto party.
Mrs. Haynes (Bister Haynes, a lawyer, reverend) is an expert culinary artist, and knows her "bis" in the kitchen, and our only regret was that the cake was devoured in such rapid-quick time.
However, we profoundly appreciate the gift, and, while we do not plan another overland trip soon, Sister Haynes will still find us residing at the same place and maintaining the fences in the same building as prior to our overland jaunt.

Arbitration Court
The need of a baseball court of arbitration is growing—a court wherein player and magnate differences can be adjusted for the good of both, writes John E. Wray in the St. Louis Post-Dispatch.
The player's position is not enviable, since he can be deprived of his means of livelihood if he fails to accept the terms of his employer.
On the other hand, many players make unreasonable demands which, rather than jeopardize the team's future, are granted by the magnate. The hold-up player then spreads the news among the team and makes malcontents and potential holdouts of the entire squad.
A court of arbitration or a referee of some sort seems almost essential.
Joe Vinn, a baseball expert, says that Rogers Hornsby is on the top of the rankings. Since assuming the management of the Cardinals he has reorganized them so cleverly that they are doing well. Word came from the Mound City recently that Rogers Hornsby had arranged his team to play stock from Branch Hornsby, whom he supplanted as team leader. Hornsby, of course, feels humiliated by his dead stock from Branch Hornsby, vice president of the Cardinals, it is merely a question of time when he will decide to never all business revolve around the controlling stockholder. The good playing of the Cardinals has allowed the team to lower their clinical performances under Hornsby, has embittered the latter to such a degree that he wants to be able to make satisfactory arrangements with his employer. Cardinals have several minor league teams, including Syracuse of the International, and Breadwolde like to have Hornsby look after them. But Hornsby believes he can do better.
In justice to Rickey, it must be said that he handled the Cardinals in the game. The club's heavy indifference was wiped out and Breckenridge stepped to the front with enough money to buy out a player. The Jets through Rickey soon controlled the club. They also got hold of three minor league players and the purpose of developing new material.
Meanwhile Hornyza was looming up on the National league champion篮球队. The Jets through McGraw, offered $25,000 for his release, which was turned down coldly. The Brooklyn club was the Brooklyn club proposition of $275,000, made by the late Charles H. Ebbets in good faith.

Trade Winds
The rotation of the earth and the movement of the air toward the equatorial regions to supply the vacancy of the atmosphere, the consequent motion upward of the air there gives rise to trade winds. Trade winds are the result of the course of trade toward the equator. In the northern hemisphere they blow from the northeast, and in the southern hemisphere they blow from the southwest.

An active league would bring together a number of small merchants, development, and with the professional men and appraisers, to develop the local league with the support of the local pastors, a progressive campaign to develop the wonderful opportunities with nothing but success. Next week another on this stage will be interested in expressions from interested persons will be appreciated and may be added to the league. New Orleans,

"CHARROW'S! HOWNS! Nolay, dirty, destructive; a misuse—human hooded. Harken was seated in his special den, the little sunroom run out over the back porch of his bachelor suite. Harken was terminated at the high floor separating it from a narrow public alley. Last summer it had also overlooked the two rooms of the alley there and spilled up during the fall and winter a horrible mumu room growth, a cheap apartment building and the alley there was spilling up beings as could, deceitfully be mounted upon its five wide doors. Harken, in the unit formation of his employer, blackened the skirts of cloud-ridden night, and could see the setting operations of the company as they unpacked and placed behind. A week earlier Harken's bookkeeper had stood by his employer's desk nervously rolling and opening the monthly calendar. "We promised you the rink next year," Burdick had said, not too painfully, and in the young man's face deepened.
"The fact is, Mr. Harken, it will come to you," Mr. Burdick said. "Married! Man alive, you aren't in a position to marry."
"A great age that, and How old is the young lady?"
"Security," and save enough by fall to a start if you could give me advance now."
"See here, Morton." I could give it to you, but I wait. When I was your age, I could have a boy doe. But the girl had been used to a good home, servanta, fine cloche. She could have done without them. People did, and she came to see in their way."
"What became of the young lady, Ms Harick—the one you were speaking to?"
"She married—a rich man."
"Was she happy?"
"I don't know," hardard said, shortly.
The interview was fresh in his mind as he watched the gliding windows and the moving figures in the room, opposite him a girl worked alone. She wore a light summer dress protected by a big flower-adorned apron. He could see in any crayon. She looked up at him. Slight and greenish, she moved quickly from bureau to shelf, from range to wall-capboard bench, back and forth in room, the contents of both in plain view of the unknoter. A scene of thirty years ago dashed before Harlan. He was sitting in a one, willow-trim, standing by a blossom-deck tree with hands upraised to reach some bloom that later she fastened at his breast and aid him in the fight. What quer twirl. What had been be doing all those years? Waiting until there should come convenient time to live, in any real sense, at all.
There was a storm breeding in the hot, black stillness, and the girl came to the room and sat upon the sill, looking from side to side into the darkness that enveloped her new surroundings. Silently she outlined the outline of head and body appeared, the features being invisible. Suddenly she turned and fove to open the door and entered the room, man laden with a box evidently of considerable weight. He lowered it to the floor, playfully evading the door from its book. A flash cut the gloom outside. Thunder followed. At its crash the girl drew close to the man, who stood behind her to the window, evidently soothing her fears. As she stood there, clapped the arm she as. As she stood there, clapped the electric sapped from the clouds and she dug her arms about him, biding her face. He stepped back a little, and she turned, then with one hand turned her face upward and laid his lips upon her in a long light. The light fell full and bright, and she reached quickly for his field glasses. Through them he saw his book glasses, morton's girl with hake like Carotine's and Love. "Did you have a pleasant week?" Hardick asked as his bookkeeper looked at him.
"Very sir, But I'm afraid you won't pleased at what I have to tell you. I have to tell you that we are married three days ago. We've taken to not wait until the fall and were married three days ago. We've taken to not wait until the fall and were very little one, but expenses are high and I will have to be on the lookout for someone who is married me on her father's wife, so it's up to me to make good. I thought I ought to tell you. You should not take my advice. Well, we and you say Marton. So you wouldn't take my advice. Yes, sir, Caroline Barker. Thank you very much.

TOOING PROFESSIONAL ADULT TOPIC
The contents of the epilepsy may be summarized as follows:
1. Salutation (1:12-13)
2. Thanksgiving and prayer in which he is leaving interest in them (1:13-11)
3. Triumph of the gospel in spite of opposition (1:12-13)
4. 27:21-13
5. Paul's promise to send Timothy and Epaphroditus (2:19-30)
6. Ehortations and warnings (3:14-14)
7. Resewal appeal for unity (4:10-23)
8. Personal matters (4:10-23)
The essential message of Philippine Judaism should dominate the Christian.
1. All Things Lose for Christ (3:17-6)
The occasion for this remarkable Judaism is the Judgment teachers for legal righteousness. in chapter 3:4-6 he enumerates the grounds upon which he had a duty to have his claims for legal righteousness.
1. "Circumcised the eighth day" in keeping with the demagogues of the law, to "lose of Israel" related by blood and birth.
3. "Tribute of Benjamin," from which the first king was chosen, and which he was called "the Lord of Israel." 4. "An Hebrew of the Hebrew," in contrast with some of mixed parent-age. 5. "Touching the law," a Pharisee, the sect most seafous for the ritual of Judah. 6. "Incoming zeal, persecuting the church." A missionary effort to crush the church. 7. "The righteousness which is in the law, blameless," as the condition of life decayed by the law. 8. "Three, valuable in themselves, when placed alongside of the excellence of the knowledge of Christ was abandoned for a better thing. The knowledge of Christ was the perspective of values. In this light he saw the utter worthlessness of these things. After some thirty years he has no regrets, and still counts he has no other human being ever knew, he has no regrets, and still counts he has had gained in Christ. 11. Paul's Present Desire (vv. 10-11). That I May Know Him. 12. "The Lord was his supreme desire. To know the saving grace of Christ is good, but to know Christ is infinitely bad."
2. "The Power of His Resurrection." This is an advance thought over personal acquaintance. It is the expression of the life of Christ through the apostle. It is the power you gain to overcome, the mastery over sin and self.
3. "Fellowship of His Sufferings." Not only identified with Christ in His sufferings by imputation, but that he might fill up that which is behind of the afflictions of Christ (Col. 1:24).
4. "Attain Unto the Resurrection of the Dead" (v. 11).
This will be accomplished when the Lord comes (I Thess. 4:16-17).
11. Presing Toward the Goal (vv. 12-16).
Paul clearly grasped the meaning of his perfection in Christ, yet he was keenly conscious of his personal limitations. Herein is expressed the true law of progress in the spiritual life.
1. Conscious of Limitations (v. 12). The first step towards progress is to be profoundly dissatisfied with personal attainments. No intellectual advancement is ever made by those who think they know enough, who are satisfied with what they have.
2. Conscious of a Transcendent Goal (v. 13).
The Christian life is an upward calling.
A Resolute Determination to Reach the Goal (v. 14).
He declares that "everything I do".
He Night Occupation of the Mind (ch. 4:18).
He makes the man "a man who is knelt on his heart, so he is".
When once the mind is guarded and controlled by the sense of God, it will be free to move.
Faith
"Every man may lose the sunshine for a time because of the clouds but is he if he still retains his faith."

PROVEN WAY TO STOP FALLING HAIR and DANDRUFF
Dandruff, falling hair, itching scalp and baldness are enemies to scalp health and the growth of long, lustrous hair. Scientists admit they are "germ" diseases and to cure them the germ must surely be destroyed.
There's no longer reason for having poor, unhealthy scalp and dull lifeless hair. It has been proven that MADAM C. J.

GOOD ROADS, AUTOS AND "JIM-CROW" COACHES.
Southern delegates to the recent session of the National Negro Business League, held last month in Tulsa, Oklahoma, especially those from Texas, Louisiana and Arkansas, their contempt for and disgust with the infernal and infamous "jim-crow" coaches of the South by motorizing in their automobiles to this big gathering.
We passed through one little "lily-white" jerkwurk burg in Oklahoma and heard one of its inhabitants remark that he had never seen so "many niggers" pass through this town before in Cadillacs, Buicks and other fine cars.
It was an unusual sight to behold cars from all sections of the South in Tulsa during the Business League, and some of them even motors on to distant points in the West and North.
The conductor on an Oklahoma passenger train, in conversation with another white passenger, with the conductor on another compartment of a dirty and dingy day coach in the Sooner State, in the presence of one lone colored passenger, stated that the Negroes of that state and the South are showing what they think about the "jim-crow" laws by traveling overland in their own automobiles.
With the advent of good roads throughout the Southern states and more colored people owning automobiles, with the conductor compartment of a dirty and dingy day coach in the Sooner State, in the presence of one lone colored passenger, stated that the Negroes of that state and the South are showing what they think about the "jim-crow" laws by traveling overland in their own automobiles.
With the advent of good roads throughout the Southern states and more colored people owning automobiles, with the conductor compartment of a dirty and dingy day coach in the Sooner State, in the presence of one lone colored passenger, stated that the Negroes of that state and the South are showing what they think about the "jim-crow" laws by traveling overland in their own automobiles.
Even now with roads that are good, bad and indifferent, so many of our people much prefer the handicaps of such a road trip than the humiliation and indignities of the damnable and diabolical "jim-crow", statute and coach.
This does not mean that our people object to riding in coaches or sections of coaches on the railroad trains provided and set aside for them, as a partial compliance with the laws of the Southern states covering separate but equal accommodations for the ride, but that we are not obligated to pay first-class fare and then being forced to ride in coaches unfit for even cattle and swine—such conditions as obtain on the vast majority of the passenger trains operated in the Southern states, Texas being no exception in this respect.
If a first-class, reputable grocery store or dry goods house were to charge colored customers one price for each item and then charge the lower price, such stores and merchants would be severely condemned and exposed through the glare of pitiless publicity and are long their business would find itself in a very precarious condition.
Still the railroad companies of the South engage in such a hijacking and holdup game, charged colored passengers the same kind of service and unreasonable policy on the part of the Southern railroad to accord these same colored passengers the same kind and type of service and identical class of accommodations tendered the passengers of other races.
Certainly there is nothing ethical, fair, just or honorable in such unfair and unreasonable policy on the part of the Southern railroad to accord these same colored passengers the same kind and type of service and identical class of accommodations tendered the passengers of other races.
Our people are partly, if not largely, blameable for their raw and rotten deal on these common carriers, for even though we have the law on our side—equality as well as separateness of accommodations on railroads of Dixie. we do most of our complaining on railroads of Dixie. if ever, complain to the proper officials, at the "big house."
If we would merely insist upon and contend for the strict enforcement of the separate coach law of our section, many of the evils, inequalities and injustices encountered and endured by colored passengers on the passenger trains of the South would be remedied and eradicated, but as long as we whine and sing our complaints, we would be going to continue to pay first-class fare and then receive 'stealth class service on these common carriers.'
Even with good roads and thousands of automobiles, the vast majority of our people will still employ the railroad trains of the South for passage and transportation, and any decent, self-respecting man or woman of color just naturally resents and objects the railroad services, as operated on the common carriers of the South.
No red-blooded man likes the idea of paying the same price for an article or service that another man pays and then be com-

Our representative bodies, both religious, fraternal, civic and political, should dispatch committees to the officials of the railroad companies, governors and legislatures of the several Southern states and take up with these officials the horrible and shocking conditions that obtain in the "jim-crow" coaches on Southern railroads. We must resort to legal procedures and see if we can not get redress through a court of equity—for the law on this point is evidently plain and manifestly fair until it comes to its interpretation and application by the railroad companies and their hirelings. Showing our resentment and disapproval of the nefarious "jim-crow" law and coach by employing automobiles is all right and perfectly within our rights, but it will hardly suffice to bring about any change. We must take the appropriate colored passengers—we must invoke and employ the legal tribunals if we would secure the smoothness of a fair and square deal.

We have, just a few hours ago, finished reading of your trip to the National Negro Business League at Tulsa, Okla., and of the reception given you by Mr. Chisum, and other things.
I am real glad you attended the league. The reception given you brings a statement true that I made several years ago. I said then that you were one of the best editors in the country, and now my statement made true by the nation's greatest men.
Please accept my congratulations upon your write-up of the league upon the reception given you by the nation's great men and upon your paper read before the Business League. Surely Houston will be moved by the wise things said by you.
I hope every citizen in Houston, not only in Houston, in Texas, and not only in Texas but in the United States of our group, read that paper and if they take heed, children that are yet unborn will profit by your wise and truthful sayings.
For, indeed, we must go into the business world as a group, if we ever get anywhere; for no race desires our association—the Mexican, Italian, J. Mor. Caucasian cares for our association.
But wo, on the other hand, have to go to church together, to school, ride on the train, eat and sleep together, and why not come together, commercially, and make positions for our girls and boys and grow wealthy as a race?
There are four of our big lodges, namely, the U. B. F's, the Old Fellows, Knights of Tabor, and the K. of P.s, who have over a million dollars cash money. It is practically all in the white man's bank, simply because we do not know how to take care of our own.
I hope you will continue your agitation for our group.
The children are all well and we are doing the best we can, considering the drought. Nothing is raised on the farm; our gardens, corn crop and pasture are all dried up and we have everything to buy for horses, pigs, chickens; cows and children, as same as in January. Anything you may say for us through the columns of your paper will be appreciated. Yours very truly, E. M. GRIGGS.

Who is call-d "The Apostle of Education?"
Daniel A. Payne, sometimes called "The Apostle of Education," was born in Charleston, S. C. By trade he was a carpenter and taught school in his native city until forced to close by the slave holders; whereupon he left the city. In 1840 he joined the Philadelphia conference of the A. M. E. Church as a local preacher, and after serving churches at Washington, Baltimore and other cities, he was elected a bishop. In 1863 he purchased for the A. M. E. Church, Wilberforce University, in the State of Ohio, and the success that this school has attained is due largely to his efforts. He died in Wilberforce in 1893, being at the time president of the Payne Theological Seminary at that place.
Who was Phyllis Wheatley?
In the year of 1761 these arrived in Boston harbor, a slave ship, among whose cargo was a little slave girl whose only clothing was a small piece of dirty carpet. Among those who were impressed by the apparent intelligence of this young slave was Mrs. John Wheatley, who finally purchased her, and through kind treatment and encouragement, Phyllis (the name given her by Mrs. Wheatley) learned easily and developed a talent for poetry. Phyllis Wheatley eventually wrote a book of 40 poems, whose literary merit disposed some to question their origin; and she finally became one of the most noted writers of her day.
Who began the crusade of the abolitionists?
The Implacable crusade of the abolitionists against slavery was opened by William Lloyd Garrison in 1831, when he founded the Liberator at Boston, and their warfare became organized by the formation of the New England and the American anti-slavery societies in 1832 and 1833. For many years the abolitionist agitators were few in numbers and weak in difficulty, notwithstanding the intensity of their zeal and the eloquence of their writing and speech; but they had kindled a flame and gave the country no rest till it decided whether slavery or freedom should be destroyed.
What is the Avery Fund?
By agreement between the executives of the state of New York, Chan Aiary, President of the Trade School for Colored Youth at Alamo College, and the University of Pittsburgh, the fund, established in 1874, is to provide instructors in the United States and the British colonies not to exceed twelve at any one time, and no individual can hold a scholarship.

Dear Gus:
INFORMOGRAMS
Eight members of the Eighth Illinois regiment were instantly killed, and eleven others seriously injured last week, when a three-inch Stokes mortar exploded during practice on the rifle range at Camp Grant. Among those killed was Captain Osceola A. Browning, a veteran of the world's war and a wearer of the Croix, de Guerre. Even in the time of peace, war exacts its toll in human lives.
Quite a furore is being raised by our editors and political leaders throughout the country over the recent appointment to the collectorship of the port of Savannah, Ga. of one M. O. Dunning, who, it is claimed, is a lifelong democrat, being a staunch supporter at the last democratic national convention in the work of McAdoo, and quit his party when McAdoo failed to get the nomination.
Not only is Mr. Coolidge being lambasted for appointing a democrat as collector of the port of Savannah, but it is further charged that the president ignored the applications of collected men of high standing with strong backing to appoint a reputed leader of the Georgia Ku Klux.
Henry Lincoln Johnson, national committeeman from Georgia, is being given credit (?) for the appointment of this Demo-Kluxer.
Jack Johnson is succeeding admirably in keeping in the limelight. Not long since he was playing in the role of prohibition officer, while his last appearance is as a co-respondent in a divorce suit, the other two parties in the triangle being white. Jack's head scems to grow harder with age.
Bishop, W. T. Vernon is quoted as saying recently: "Money raising is the vital element in the African Methodist Church," and we would add were we a bishop that "money raising is the vital element in most African churches—Methodist or otherwise."
Should money be the all-important element in the church? We have contended all our short life that the churches are greatly responsible for the fact that the almighty dollar has taken the highest seat in the hearts of the people. Members are now rated, not on character, but on their willingness and ability to contribute heavily in the plate. In some branches of the church the pastor who can raise the largest sum of dollar money gets the choicest appointments; in others the superintendents whose Sunday schools send up the largest donations to the conventions have their praises sung the loudest. The influence of the church on the lives of the community is entirely overlooked, in the mad chase for the American god—the dollar. We once asked a prominent minister of this city if he didn't think that the dollar was supplanting character as an ideal of Christianity; his reply was: "Well, you know money is a very indispensable article." So there you are!
We have been waiting since every state forwarded Edward Bardway, secretary of state in Liberia, to hear the object of his mission, it appears. He is a diplomat of a silent type. Unlike most foreign representatives, Mr. Bardway comes with a diplomatic agent, an agent, agents heralding his mission. Newspapers report that he is scholarly and knowledgeable, and he is keeping his business to himself, we feel that the interests of Liberia will be strengthened.
Negro editors will discuss the press at an important celebration of the Negro Historical Society's tenth anniversary in Washington, D. C., on the 9th and 10th of September. Robt S. Abbott, L. H. King and R. L. Vann will be the speakers featuring Negro newspapers. Carter G. Woodson, the director of the Negro Historical Association, refers to the development of the Negro press as the most hopeful sign on the horizon. His claim is that the Negro is not only learning to think but he has learned to place his thoughts before the world. In making the Negro press we are making Negro history, as it is through the press that the world must learn of each achievements of our race. It is the Negro press that has presented the protest of the race against injustices, intelligently defined the demands of the race for recognition; interpreted the thought of the Negro; stimulated Negro business and prevented recurrences of racial conflicts. To all of which every thinking man or woman must subscribe.
