BY C. F. RICHARDSON.
TEXAS GET BUSY.
It is suggested in The Informer week before last, the Colored Teachers' State Association of Texas, of which Boot H. B. Pemberton, Marshall, is affiliated, has decided to take a hand in the Prairie View situation, both as it relates to the next principal that of the institution, taking the institution out of petty politics and making and maintaining it a real educational center. Only through organized efforts can the Negro, or any people, hope to get any positive and permanent recognition about and as we are able to see the colored teachers of Texas interesting and buoying themselves in the welfare and perseverance of an institution of learning that means more and for the colored race of Texas than any other educational school in the
NEWSPAPER HOAX.
In keeping with its established reputation. The Informer always tries to keep up with the latest news, and in pursuance of this policy this paper has been able to load up the latest news, and in pursuance of this policy this city, South and East Texas and Louisiana, is issue of September 19, 1925, there appeared an article relative to a group of insurance companies that standard Life Insurance Company and restoring it to the race. Subsequent developments have provided sufficient not only to collate information on the design and the centrally misleading and erroneous. This news story was sent out from the Information Officers Corporation, 2802 Pine Boulevard, Louis, Mo., and practically all of the information was sent out through questioning even though questioning or doubting somewhat the veracity of the information that this race corporation would not guilty of wilfully and intentionally misleading and inaccurate mention and inaccurate mention on the other-carried this feature on the front pages like the Informer on their front pages like The Informer. However, not unlike the Informer, most of these papers, in their headlines or sub-headings, inserted the information that no confirmation of deal from Atlanta or Naval Air Force had been made in the courier effect of the Southern Insurance Company, which wrote the courier effect of the sales and adds that while the deal had previously been short on the "long green" for

State Teachers Association Acts In State School Behalf; Two Committees Appointed
Hilldale Leading Kansas City In Negro World Series Games
Special to The Informer.
Marshall, Texas.—The section of the University of Texas at Austin of Prairie View State Normal and Industrial Institute by the board of directors through the newly chosen head of Texas A. and M. College, and the wide range of faculty and staff tried on through the process of the state, seems to be guiding direction and all the necessary steps on the part of bodies of interested citizens and the State Association of Teachers. The principal choice of the new principal of the institution may lead to more effective instruction.
President H. B. Pemberton of the state association, has already conference committee of the association and committee of the association and have urged that he make arrangements to guard the situation. Accordingly, he has named a prospective committee of directors at an early date. This committee sent the case of the school to the board of directors at an early date. This committee joined with another and larger committee, composed of members of the association of all walks of life, in an effort to determine the head of the institution and that he be capable of leading the action of the school into a more proactive decision.
Want Capable School Man With Power to Act With Authority.
It is generally conceded that the threat of an information-policy crisis has been been less in the fact that those who have acted have been so limited in their power and so dependent upon outside influence that they have been unable to respond to the threat.
of the school. It is also claimed in this connection that the position has been rendered the selection of a man at the political alliances and that this has rendered the selection of a man at the executive almost impossible. It is probable that the case of the selection of a man will be presented in the form of a petition to the near future of interested parties and letters to the president of A. and M. College and the president of the near future. The petition will be attended at once and every member of the general public will be urged to join the movement. It is conceived that the success of that of any other state school in the whole of South. But the success by the failure of its directing mission is beseted by the failure of its directing operations into these areas. And in view of the fact that it is supposed to be a man of the public school, it is argued that it is to the advantage of the best possible training to it. The best possible training. If such could happen, as the standards of Texas public schools are so, it could be filled with Texans instead of with those from other states as is so.
No Particular Person Advocated For Position.
The petition of the teachers will not advocate the cause of any particular institution of the institution and will must re-organization as a college which should be thrown around the man chosen for the position. It will primarily for his ability to conduct a school and not because of any other reason.
Kansas City

ALONE, CAN HIT
In baseball, minor happenings often do much to shape the career of a player. The catcher "Hired" Hargreave of the St. Louis Browns is wondering if fate have been mighty unkind to him for three years. He ages Hargreave joined the Washington club of the Americas, the New Haven Hawks, the New Haven Hawks, the Eastern league, the innings, Hargreave had always been a turn batter, but much preferred hitting from the left side of the plate. After Chief Bender, famous Indianapolis Indians, the major, he held down several managerial births in the纵队, among the New Haven club. Hargreave was a natural right-handed batter and ordered him to cut out his left-handed efforts. He met with excellent success. When he joined the Washington club his record as a right-handed batter was made by him that he hit either way didn't receive much encouragement. During his stay at Washington Hargreave, he achieved the brilliant Rael, able to work every day, kept Hargreave either a bench player or given some relief pitcher ready.
Occasionally he got a chance as pichch hitter, with varying success. He got a right side of the plate. Several times he requested a chance to hit left-handed, but nothing was done. He brought him to St. Louis. Manager Sleider of the Browns sent the veteran catcher, Hank Severn, to Washington, get rid of Midgepire and Hargave. In return, one week after joining the St. Louis club Hargave had won himself a call to the catching staff. He hit doing it. "Do you care if I left-handed? was one of the first questions he asked. "I don't care how you bat, just so you turn in some base hits," replied Sleider. His first game against Detroit batted left-handed. Hargave made a single, double and home run in three times up. The week of play Hargave made four home runs, and every one of them figured in a St. Louis victory.
Manager George Sisler
"Hes a smart pitcher right now," remissed Staley, after his team had him win. "He has pain, seems to know what it is all about, but needs experience. A month on the bench will do him a lot. He will present. He must learn what to and what not to pitch to the various dangerous batters before he can hope for much success. That can be better in observation than in any other way."
Louis Frys was full of speculation per in the recent "annual match" de Longwood courts when de Miss Hosmer. certain change

Paul Plains the Church in Corinth.
1. The True Missionary Method (v. 18).
2. Come to Corinth a stranger in a strange city. He did not have an advance agent to do his advertising.
His method in gaining a foothold in Corinth.
1. Finding a House (v. 2).
2. This he found with Aquila and Priscilla, Jew, who were recently expelled by the cruel edict of Gandau.
2. He Tolled for His Daily Bread
He was of the same craft with them, being a tinkerer. Every child among the Jews was taught some craft, but he did not gain a livelihood, should occasion require.
Fleesing in the Synagogue at Corinth (v. 4-8).
1. Though Compelled to Paul for a living While Getting a Foothold in Corinth, He Did Not Lose Sight of
He resounded in the synagogue every Sabath, persuading the Jews and Greeks. While the men took to tell when naughty sisters, he must not allow to interfere with preaching the Gospel. His Activism, We increased His power. He increased the naughty sisters. This resulted from three causes:
(1) They brought good news from the church at Thessalonica (I Thess. 3).
(2) The hear of the starethood of those who had confessed Christ under his ministry, put new vigor into his labors.
(3) They brought peculiar gifts from the Macedonian church (Phl. 4:15; II Cor. 11:9).
(4) He brought the necessity of being a living, he could now devote more time and energy to the preaching of the gospel.
(5) Sites and Timothy became assistant to work.
3. Paul Voppos (v. 6).
His increased activity was met with increased opposition. As the Lord's counsel, he worked their work, the ministers of Satan put forth corresponding efforts in opposition.
Paul Announces His Purpose to turn to the Gentiles (v. 9).
Because of their blasphemy and opposition, he ceased to work among the people, judgment causes one to abandon work where efforts have been fruitless, but it is difficult to know just when to do so. He was forced to the work by pressuring efforts when people have turned against the truth. Paul's declaration, if one were to be faithful, is one that they could easily find him. It is nowhere true that although Christ is obliged to depart from the soul that he has been sent, he is still learning love around that heart.
His Success (v. 8).
Critique, the choice of the sages, perhaps Perhaps Paul's severe action in trygging away from need moved Critique to act.
11) Paul's Visits (v. 10) is coming to Europe very trying. He needed encouragement at this time. It is not easy to come to Europe the servant's greatest need. Note the Lord's words to him.
"Be Not Afraid." When one is克服困难 of the Lord, he need not be afraid.
2. "Speak and Hold Not That Place." The one who has heard the Lord's words from speaking. He cannot be still.
3. "I Am With Thee," the Lord is with every one who faithfully attends him. 4. "No Man Shall Set on Thee, Hurt Thee." The Lord to the Lord to do a work is immune from danger and harm until his work is done. He is in This City. It is most encouraging to know that in the great cities the Lord has his own people, and that the one who poses in his name shall have fruit

THE HOUSTON INFORMER
SOUTH'S GREATEST RACE NEWSPAPER
"It Gets You Told—Nothing Else!"
While not evading a direct answer on these and other questions being propounded to us by our people touching upon this $4,000,000 school bond issue, we again reiterate that a representative committee of colored citizens should be appointed to confer with the school board and secure some definite assurances along this line.
If, after this conference, this committee feels reasonably assured that the board must do to the right thing by and for the colored schools of the district (provided the issue carries), we think that our people should vote affirmative. If we can get no reasonable assurance from the school board, and it appears that our group will fare like it has out of similar bond issues in the past, then our people should organize their forces and work for the defeat of the proposition.
Unless we manifest some interest in this matter and seek to get some real consideration from the board, doing the board work will not be worth it. The board should posed to us out to the issue carries at the polls and the bonds are floated.
There is nothing unfair, unreasonable, radical or "upish" in pursuing such a course; for experience has taught us or should teach us (if we are susceptible of learning from experience) that the board should not get too much. We can get very little consideration and more often receive nothing.
ANY MAN WHO IS GOOD ENOUGH TO SHEED HIS BLOOD FOR
HIS COUNTRY IS GOOD ENOUGH TO BE GIVEN A SQUARE DEAL
AFTERWARDS. NO MAN IS ENTITLED TO MORE AND NO MAN
SHOULD RECEIVE LESS. — ROOSEVELT.
The Negroes of Houston do not manifest enough interest in their public schools and the educational development and training of their children; yet they are past masters in the art and profession, and are well aware of the importance of when things do not go to suit them, nor happen, just to their living.
STATEMENT OF THE OWNERSHIP, MANAGEMENT, CIRCULATION
ETC, REQUIRED BY THE AGO, CONGRESS OF AUGUST
The Informer made a similar suggestion when the $3,000,000 school bond issue was submitted last year, but our people paid no heed to the suggestion and warning, and thus they were left practically out of the senior-junior high school expansion program, for, as this paper proved in a recent issue, the Jack Yates junior high school in Third Ward is not being erected out of that $3,000,000 (all of it in or more dollars), was spent on white school buildings, but it was not being invaded in the administration and maintenance of the local schools.

"Forewarned is forewarned," and if the colored citizens of this school district do not act before election day and secure some definite and tangible assurances regarding the board's attitude towards colored schools out of the proposed $40,000,000 bond issue, the board pursues a policy, altogether different from our viewpoint, in expending this huge sum of money.
1. That the name and address of the publisher, editor and managing editor are: Clifton, charcoal, 40419 Old Fallen Temple, Houston, Texas.
2. That the known bondholders, mortgages and other security holders owning 1 see cent or more total amount of bonds, mortgages, or other security
MISSISSIPPI MOBOCRATS ARE GOING SOME!
Governor Whitfield of Mississippi, who denounced the louisy lynchocrats and heathenish and hellish Huns of his state for dismissing Sunday church services to burn a colored man at the stake at New Albany, some few weeks ago, has gotten himself in bad touch with mobsters who are now threatening to "get the American pastime and Southern sport of luxe."
MORE ABOUT PRAIRIE VIEW PRINCIPALSHIP.
In assuming the attitude that it has in the Prairie View principal, The Informer has not been actuated by any selfish or ulterior motives; but the best interests of the school, race and state ever been uppermost in our editorial position and contentions.
One of the ring leaders of the mob is reported as saying to Mississippi's chief executive, "Yes, we lynched Jim Ivy! Here we are."
In this connection, since we have been informed that certain factions are suggesting and pushing this man and that man, and, since the board of directors seem bent on appointing Hal Tarver of San Antonio, as the next principal of Fairview State Normal and Industrial College, over the protests of the colored citizens of Texas, save a few who have endorsed the San Antonio politician—it appears to the Informer that all selfish motives should be put aside and that the state should not backers and all efforts be concentrated to the end that no man is unfit to hold this office be elected and elevated by the white board to the principalship of this state school.
In response to this insolent and anarchistic query, the governor remains as silent as a clam and all his talk and "bull" about "investigation," and "bringing the guilty culprits to justice" is as sounding brass and tinkling cymbals! Before the Mississippi mobrocats the governor of the state hoists the white feather and literally takes to the tall timbars, and he seems perfectly willing to let the matter drop where it is "at."
Practically every time a grave issue arises where it affects our people, as a cause when our cause and add strength to the oppression by bringing it to the attention of the authorities, which taken by and large, can at best only benefit some particular individual or small group, rather than the masses of our peo-
Score a double victory for mobocracy and anarchy!
As long as mob-law holds undisputed and unchallenged sway in this country, and particularly in this section, where moral cowardice sways men in public life and others who may seek political power, the city is in constant danger: for mobs never stop to reason and highest citizen is in constant danger: for mobs never stop to reason—why they merely act upon the impulse of the moment.
According to recent report and rumor, the Alamo City politician, backed by some of the leading white citizens of a state like Texas, has been accused of being a racist and, unless our people subordinate their selfish desires and concentrate their forces for the common good of all, our state school has been accused of being racist.
If these howling hoodlums can, with impunity, take a black man from the constituted authorities and burn him at the stake or hang him to a nearby tree, why should we become excited and alarmed when the same mobbors defy the governor of their state to make an investigation or endearment to bring about the arrest and conviction of a single member of their select circle?
Every man should be ambitions, we admit, but every man who is ambitious is not qualified, fitted, nor prepared to creditably fill them.
Mob-victim, like disease, can not be confined to any one particular channel, and, if this American criminal malady continues to spread, it will be difficult to prevent it. We urge us to see Judge Lynch's devotees and adherents invade the governor's mansion and treat the chief magistrate of some state to a dose of the famous American concoction, merely because he dared to kill a man. We urge the governor to proper respect for constituted authority and our legal tribunals.
The Informer has no fight to make on any aspirant or candidate as such; but this paper knows that few, if any, of the many aspirants and candidates are fitted and qualified for the position; and this paper suggests that the board make no hasty or premature decision in this matter. The board is aware of irrelevant error and irreparable wrong if it intends and persists in appointing the West Texas race politician as head of Prairia View, and no man should try to so dominate the board as to force this man's appointment.
If American ideals and institutions are to endure the onslaughts and ravages of internal and external forces, the first monster that must be overcome is disrespect for law and constituted authority, which breeds mob-law and anarchy.
It has been currently rumored throughout Texas that a certain white politician has stated that this San Antonian will get the principalship of Prairie View even if it means the "closing of this d—— nigger school."
The old ship of state is drifting upon dangerous soals when mobrocats stage their lynching orgies and then hurl defiance in the face of the governor of the state, defying and challenging him to "come on and try to convict one of us!"
Well, this white politician and his cohorts will do well to pay some attention to these protests from the colored citizens of Texas, for if he insists upon his man becoming the head of Prairie View, he will be able to keep the school open and protect the politician-principal's life.
The law of retribution is cosmic, inocerable and unyielding, and the nation or nation that sows to the winds must ultimately reap the whiteness.
Prairie View College belongs to all the colored people of Texas and the fact that it is supported and maintained by the state government does not warrant nor justify the placing at the head of the list of the most important colleges for whom they have only the utmost disrespect and contumely.
THE $4,000,000 SCHOOL BOND ISSUE!
The board of education of the Houston Independent School District, at a recent meeting, decided to submit a $4,000,000 bond issue for elementary and high school sites, building and equipment, the issue to be approved or rejected at the polls on Tuesday, November 11. In giving out a statement to the daily papers, the head of the local public schools said that at least $600,000 of this huge bond

If we fail in this most timely effort, we risk the association as unworthy of the faith and support that we claim it.
