The prouder of the Houston temple than the order's deceased leader, who prepares for his death, pleases until it becomes a reality and stands as a monument to achieve realization.

In his passing the family, order, race and state sustain an inrepressible faith in God, and enesse "yet his influence for good will live long after the decomposition will call him blessed because he lived and wrought so well.

This I mean that Vardon in the only gufer whose hands seem to be molded into one and actually do the work. "Watch Vardon take the club in his hands; they dwell so beautifully that they seem made of some piece of the swing do the hands come apart; they start and come down as one. One the grip is gripping tighter or not, the other is much the other. It is the most perfect thing imaginable." Several Members of Team Perform Well in Different Positions. John McGraw may well boast of the most versatile set of ball players ever gathered on a big league ball club. If the veteran plaid leads his aggregation by firing a shot, he will be幸运 of five members may have much to do with accomplishing this record-breaking feat. he considered a confirmed first baseman by instinct, training, elevation and desire, heads the list. Kelly has played first, second and third in the league and maintained his usual batting gait. Ron Young, veteran outfielder, has played second base in a manner equal to that exhibited by many a regular first baseman. Capt. Frank Fried has played third as well as second. In veteran Detroit Grow, grown second base somewhat like a young and skittish kitten. And Grow Harley, sent in to fill the void in third base, has first at base, delivered the goods in acceptable fashion at both places. Bill Terry, once a pitcher, has earned and can play the outfield as well. Jack Bennett, in addition to pitching regularly, could play the outfield or Art Neff is no ham as an indefender. And the outfielders have been shaded about in the outfielders with an arm that is not as strong as the score looms. The opposition do with a tandem that can present a changed lineup every day—display a beachful of cripples and still keep on winning! BASEBALL NOTES Fitzberg is playing a great game for the Phillies at second. Jack Cheebo is pitching in the New England semi-professional league.林基曼, McGraw youth third baseman, is doing some smart batting for the Giants. Sympathy. That rare quality expressed in raucous laugh when the umbrella is beamed. Horace (Flopp) Kibble, who jumped the Braves for the Ohio sep-ped field, has reloaded the Bancroft tribe. Mempels lost the services of its only left-banded pitcher, Brillhart, when the heaver was stricken with appendicitis. The Yankees have fallen deep in the standing of the American league, but it would not be surprising to see them rise soon. The Phillies have sent Pitcher Frank (Dutch) to Urich to Waterbury for the league, for the remainder of the season. Hans Wagner remains active in baseball as a member of a semi-professional team, as the Carnegie Eiks, of Carnegie, Pa. Seventeen of the 27 outs made by Minnesota in a recent game with Indiana were fouls to the outstretched. Only three made at first. Johnny Johnson, starburter of the Central New Mexico league, has been named the MVP. Johnson landed 110 men during the first half of the season. Pitching ineffectiveness and not the lively bat is responsible for most of the slugging nowadays, in the opinion of Ban Johnson, president of the American league. The Boston Braves have one pitcher, at least, who is capable of hurting winning ball. He's Larry Benton and pitcher for the ballers only regularly. Lynn "Clyde" Citron, San Antonio Texas league left fielder, stole three in one trip to bat in the sixth inning of a recent game with Beanboun. After singing, Nason stole one.

The school situation is the principal topic of discussion here and the leave of absence granted former Supervisor Taylor, without a successor being appointed, has caused much speculation as to whether the position, which was created two years ago, is to be abolished. Assistant Superintendent Dalche refuses to discuss the matter other than to confirm the fact that Professor Taylor has not paid out pay so as to enable him to take advantage of an offer by the General Education Board which will permit Professor Taylor to do some work at the University of Chicago. Mr. Taylor would not be reached for a statement. Former Vice-Principal Tatum has accepted work at Gary, Ind. and is in that city. Professor O. C. W.

Speculation on Supervisor. Much comment is being made on the information given out that the leave of absence granted Professor S. Taylor is from "the system" and not from the position he has held.

Partisan of Professor Taylor claim that he has made a fine record as supervisor but others contend that such is not the case. Division in Ranks. In educational circles it is charged that the supervisor, with Professionals with the support of Rev. H. H. Dunn, direct the affairs affecting the colored teachers. It is known that many of the students bitterly opposed to the supervisor and indirectly involved in many unfair actions. Anyway, a determined fight was made upon the supervisor and it is stated that he was able to obtain an increase in salary held, his original appointment having many principals were receiving. Complaints to Board. That many complaints were made to the Board of Education and the school board, and were known. Opponents of the superintendent attached much importance to orders to maintain the school, which is stated in his office, which was at McBessinger, in his school, after 5 o'clock in the afternoon, after a construction, unfavorable to the students, of the placing of window glass in the form of windows. When chased with not giving prompt attention to matters referred to by his wards of the students, he was not given the proper clerical help in his office, that this much was needed, and worked for him to work longer hours than what should have been required.

While the lesson committee has selected this brief passage in the second chapter, it will be presented to present the message of the entire epilogue. It was on Pauls second missionary trip to the Philippines. Thetheonica was founded as seen in the last lesson. After crossing into the Philippines, where he was imprisoned, From Philippe he went to Theonanica. The people there were largely Gentiles. 1. The Salutation (ch. 1:1). Timothy and Silas were associated with Paul in this missionary journey, and in this message. 11. Paul's message (1:2:10). Paul's Faith, Love and Hope (v. 2:4). 12. The process texted of this theology of God. 12. How They Received the Gospel (v. 5). He was in the power of the Holy Spirit. 11. Character of Paul's Ministry (2:11:2) I would seem from this defense that some of the Jews had called into question his ministry. He defends himself by showing the character of his minister. 1. It Was Couragous (v. 1:2) His persistence in mingle of shameless devotion to the devotion to the Lord and His work. 2. Honest and Guileless (v. 3:4). As one sent of God, he faithfully mingled with them, and courting man's favor. 3. Without Flattering Words (v. 5). 4. Without a Cloak of Covetiness (v. 5). 5. Did Not Seek Grace From Man (v. 5). 6. Gentle and Affectionate (v. 7:8). So vitally did he enter into the people that he displayed a gentle and a nursing mother with her children. 7. Useless (v. 0.8) In order that his motive be not questioned, he labored night and day for his mission. 8. Ireproachable and Maneless (v. 10.8) He did not claim to be faithful, but he challenged them as to his blamelessness. 9. His Lofty Atm (v. 11-12). That they would walk worthy of God in keeping with their high calling. 10. IV. How the Gospel Was Received (2:13-10). As the very Word of God. V. Paul's design for the Thessalonians (2:17-3:13). 1.

WOODSON (8, 1930, Western Newspaper Union). HAD all I had a like dream, somehow, to Victoria staring there painting and shaking at the phone waiting for her sisters voice to answer for her. And what else of things we could think about to us. They had finished dinner as usual, and Nelson had told her he was waiting for her to come and whether he should go West that night or not. And he had told her that, pending the message, he had to bring her to the room. And afterwards, he had gotten some papers out of the case at the living room table, and then had leased the case, with all that money, against his wife. When he looked over the evening paper. And she had gone to the alcove back of the porters to call Louse and Neil, and when she waited for her wife Nelson was gone, if he had to go. And the line had been busy, and while she waited to try again, and then out of her head of his paper. "Bandits again! By George, and near here, the Caucasian's told me, And then Victoria got to get Louise again. And just as Louise answered, the doorbell had rung. Victorian chattered with Louise, she had peered around the portiere and seen Nelson shuffling to the door in his house slip. "I guess I got my wish. I suppose to the telegram, he was saying. And I tried out with a sudden premonition. "Well find out first, you open the door. So Nelson had called out "Who is it," and a young voice had answered "a message for you." And, reasured, Nelson intent on his business, had gone wide. And there the bandits— the bandits had leveled revolvers Nelson. They backed him, sweared up, and. And there in the brief case in the shadow down on the floor by the door, was all that money that didn't belong. The bandits hadden not Victoria pet, they didn't know she was there, and they didn't evidently not wanting them to help, she wavilying with terror, she had suddenly come to her semes, she had shoved, she wavilying with terror, she had the whip hand if she injured that she could defeat the robbers. She remembered how her voice, calm and suddenly seemed to boom out in the darkness of the room. "Lonline! Call the police!" were the words she said and the next instant the porture was down and the phone screen from her and she was staggering across the room. "The bandit hurried. The bandit put the receiver back on the hook very softly. The money in the brief case, the money in the pocket, the money not found yet, but she knew it was only a question of time. But one of them went close to the table for some money, she stooped to see what it was and sharply Victoria's voice outagain in a sort of demeanor of a little girl. I—warn you—the station is only a few block away. I was taking to—the "Didn't you—didn't you—call them—" "Call them—what for?" "Why—I—I told you to call them—I —I told you we were being held up—" —I told you we were being held up— “Hold up!” Louise’s voice was shiller with terror. “I didn’t call any police. I'm coming right over. Why, before you—you hung up I—hardened. I was so scared. I didn't at all know what…” Titles "Would you marry a man with a "Everything would depend on the kind of a gift.

The business manager stated that this colored school site, comprised of eight acres, is one of the "most attractive the school system owns" and is "the largest school site in the city." We wish to thank the school authorities for this information and consideration, but it takes more than a site or sight to make a real school. If we had to choose between a large school site and miniature building on one hand and medium-sized site and a commodious, modern and decent building on the other, we would take the latter every time.

The superintendent's latest statement of the cost of the Jack Yates Junior Colored High School (let us pray!), it seems that the price has been boosted a few hundred dollars since figures were published in the daily newspapers giving the exact cost of the lots, buildings, equipment, etc. of all the senior and junior students, or out of the $3,000,000 bond issue by the local board of education. HOUSTON, TEXAS, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 19, 1925 FASTENING CRIMES UPON THE NEGRO! Recently I was reading an article in the life of John Seaburn, the great naturalist. Had that secret any to do with his blood—Q. L. That the Negro has proven and is proving a mighty convenient scapegoat for the white criminals of America, has been evident in the recent years. The daily newspapers, citing figures from the superintendent's office, stated several weeks ago that the colored junior high school and West End (white) school would be "small affairs," to the extent that the colored school building would seat "ONLY 300 PUPILS." In making this assertion The Informer does not want to be misunderstood as contending that we do not have the criminal and vicious element within our racial group (for such a contention would be both false and absurd); but this paper is tired and sick white criminals and white daily newspapers fastening every white and black crime upon the usual "big, black, burly Negro." Possibly so, Audubon was the natural son of his father and a West African man, who was Audubon's wife adopted and read the boy, as well as a sister by the mother. Audubon's ancestry was one of the main reasons why Americans did not receive him. Some years later, his father died and Audubon was raised in France. To the credit of the foster mother, she tried to secure Audubon's place in the estate, but Audubon's relatives in France fought him upon the ground where he had Negro blood and won a decision. Now, here is where our erudite and learned superintendent shows what a smart and brilliant mathematician he really is or thinks he is. He now avers that the colored junior high school building will be of 900 capacity, and we presume he figured it this wise: 300 pupils with double daily sessions and night school. Figured 300 pupils at the morning, afternoon and night sessions, presto change! we get our grand total of 900 pupils. Atta, Doc Some mathematics! Some mathematician!! Since the Informer has an established policy of never going off half-cocked and indulging in glittering generalities, we will be pardoned if we mention a few of the recent crimes attached to Negroes that later proved to be false and a hoax. On the front page of last week's issue of The Informer there appeared a news story from Washington, D. C, telling of a criminal outrage upon a white girl and the customary hunt by the押ses for the usual "burly, black brute"; how the girl placed the alleged criminal attack at the door of the colored race and then finally broke down and confessed that her white sweetheart was the "black brute" and then made a plea that he be exonerated of the crime, if crime it really was. As to the fairness, correctness and consistency of and in The Informer's position and contention in this matter, we shall cite a few figures on the relative cost of this and other school buildings in the board's senior-junior high school expansion program. Here are the original estimates of what the Yates Junior Colorored High School will cost: General contract, $70,900; plumbing, $10,848.50; electrical equipment, $3,800; heating, $9,265; architects, $4,740.67; school site, $35,500; total, $134,544.17. When the little white girl in New Jersey was first reported as being kidnapped from her home, the newspapers of the country flashed the story on their front pages with glaring headlines and the act placed at the hand of the "usual Negro," but later events disclosed the fact that even the Negro chauffer accused of the crime had been slain by the white moron and imbecile who subsequently admitted to the police officers that he slew both the white child and colored taxi driver. Note the total costs in the sites and erection of the following white high schools: Eastwood, $107,056.30; Norhill, $471,701.07; South End (east of Main), $498,964.25; South End (west of Main), $501,483; West End, $198,917.15; Heights Senior, $504,290.29; North Side, $319,826. Now for some more facts and figures: The total cost of the white senior and junior high school sites and building is $3,002,237.16, or $2,237.16 more than the $3,000,000 bond issue voted and floated for this purpose; and, since the colored school building is being erected out of some other fund or funds (since the $3,000,000 was exhausted on the white schools alone), it only goes to prove that The Informer was both right and wrong when it contended that the colored citizens of this school district got the leavings; in fact, there were no leavings—we merely got the scrapings, nothing else! Right here in Texas, last week, we had another cast of a white man charging a crime to two Negroes, claiming that the colored men hi-jacked and shot him on a highway near Waco; but police officera at Arlington, a town between Dallas and Fort Worth, wired Waco officials that the said white man was shot while prowling around some chicken coops near Arlington, and thus the white pusheen-chicken thief was arrested and carried back to the place of his crime. Was Mohamet a black man?—R.S. P. Dayton, Ohio. Mohanet was grown kawkun Arah and of Negro descent. As he states about the blood of the Arah and of the blood of his blood in your tribe and him the tribe of Korehua. "This tribe was the most of the Arabian tribes and made up of Yemenites who are closely kikto in the Arah." These three incidents transpired within the last two weeks, in different sections of the country, and they merely go to show how easy it has been and is for white men to commit crimes and then fasten their criminal deeds upon some Negro; with the result that some innocent Negro often pays a penalty for some wrongdoing and knows nothing about until he reads about it in the white newsletters. In other words, of the huge sum of $3,186,791.38 being expended by the board of education for senior and junior high school sites and buildings, less than 1/25 is being invested in colored school buildings. We should have said in A colored school site and would be building. Where in the name of high heaven and fair play is there the remotest sense of justice and square deal in such a bigrigger and penurious policy, and what logical and reasonable argument can justify shortest present or make to justify their actions in this matter? The vicious and criminal element of our race pulls off enough stunts and crimes without men and newspapers of other races hanging theirs on to our racial group, and such practices not only work a hardship upon some individual member of our race, but reflect discreditably upon the race collectively; for when the truth is known about the color of the perpetrator of such crimes, the criminal dismembered and dehumanized the fact that the criminal was a white man and not the "big, basal, black Negro." Have any Negro races ever settled in northern Europe?—T.K., Tacoma, Wash. of the 200,000 or more people residing in this school district fully 25 per cent are colored, and all of these citizens are tax payers, either of the direct or indirect type; and truly society owes them and their children the same educational facilities, living conditions and civic considerations accorded and granted other peoples and races in our municipality. The remains of the prehistoric race remain in the ruins of the ancient habitation by Negro races. More recently, the remains of the prehistoric race were there founded the Gaicic civilization. The remains of the prehistoric race were there founded the Druids of Britain. It seems to be the American hambit to associate all crime with the colored race, which practice originated in the South and is now fastly enveloping the entire country, particularly those communities where colored citizens reside in any appreciable numbers. Whether intentional or unintentional, the school board has made a serious blunder in spending all the $3,000,000 bond issue on white schools and then scraping up funds here and there to give our group a little building as a sop or sugar-tit; but whether this was done knowingly or unknowingly, the result is just the same, and the Jack Yates Junior Colored High School, as far as the building is concerned, is a monumental joke, a misnomer, a gratuitous insult to our pride racial fidelity and a horrible reflection on our school spirit. Who was Queen Dido?—M. P. S. Macon, Georgia. Queen Dido was a Phoenician and of African descent and the founder of Carthage in the Latin ages aeneas from burning Troy, but had to leave her upon the command of the gods, burn her herself upon a burning burrow herself upon a死刑 pry The police and constabulary officers and white daily newspapers can do much to discourage and discountenance this practice of fastening all crimes upon the colored race, if they would not allow the police to drive civilians living credence and circulation to these wild and baseless charges.

Although they labored in different fields, (one political, the other economic) they were the most men's events were for the good of the race. Not only do the Odd Fellows mourn the passing of Mr. Gore, but every man and woman in Texas joins them to depose the death of his gilian heir. He gave his life for his friends."
