Lynching League Fan Describes 'Ole Miss' Burning Orgy SEGREGATION HOME EDITION VOL. VII THE MIRROR BY C. F. RICHARDSON. The conductor of this department motored overland to Prairie View State College last Friday evening, according to the Prairie View State College Express, where we spent the night with Prof. and Mrs. C. H. Waller. The Dallas educator-editor came in on the Sunbeam, crack nonstop passenger, and was a member of the State and Houston without a single stop. Our host, Prof. Waller, is just recovering from an injury sustained when the doctor has been受injured. We have also been at the Southern Pacific collided at Bryan several days ago; but the fact that he was in the smashup did not interfere with our royal reception. Mrs. Waller prepared for a breakfast at Saturday mornings, and we certainly fasted sumptuously. When we arrived they were listening in our little programs from differing positions of the state and country, their son, Walton, operating their wonderful radio machine, the latest in super-heterodyne. While the medical team made an inspection of the physical equipment of the school and were informed by Prof. P. E. ("Uncle Pauf") Biedsoe, acting principal, that the enrollment has already been completed. The student body is in fine splirits, with the prospects of an excellent term's work. The faculty has been strengthened considerably over the last year, with teachers secured from some of the leading institutions of learning in the country, and all of them have entered heartily and enthusiastically into the faculty. Prairie View has wonderful possibilities and potentialities as an educational center, both from a theoretical and practical viewpoint; but these can only be achieved through wise and diligent leadership, an able and cooperative faculty and a responsive, loyal and determined student body. We must not only be taught the text-books, but they must be inspired by their instructors or else the whole scheme of education falls dismally; and here is where Prairie View has fallen down in putting over its If the Prairie View board will select as principal, an appraisal will be required to co-ordinate his forces as to bring about this deepee. He will be in its proper niche in educational culture, in its important and conspicuous part in the educational training and development of students. ALL RIGHT, FOLKS! In less than three weeks (Tuesday, November 3, 1925, to be exact and positive) the voters of the Houston school were not in the班级, either reject or approve the $4,000,000 school bond issue, which the board of education decided, some weeks ago, to submit to the electorate on said day. According to the announced and published plans of the board, fully $2,000,000 of this issue, if approved by the voters, will be employed in new schools and schools, and will be offered to ward schools; while the other $1,000,000 will be used in the furtherance of the senior-junior high school expansion program. The proposed changes, according to the daily papers, to spend $500,000 on the colored schools; or, rather the head of the school system stated in the daily press that it would require at least this sum to look after the nation's school-based education. The colored citizens and patrons of the public schools, constituting fully one-fourth of the urban population and a small share of the population, are not attending the local schools, are not the least concerned whether the board spends $c, $50, $500, $5,000, or $500,000 for their children's and their children's schools. The proposed change, this is evidenced by their apathy, lethargy and indifference in the face of repeated suggestions that we organize our forces and endeavor to do so. The proposed change is proposed to bond issue before election day. All right, folks, just continue to pursue your present policy, and, then, when the board falls to come up to your own feet, you will be able to make your crying needs in colored school circles, and your taxes become more burdensome and oppressive, see what you can accomplish by whining, complaining and chirping your national racial and ethnic status. As reiterated often in these columns, the Houston Negroes, boasting of the largest colored population of any Texas as city, get into the school board and become the school board and municipal administration than in any other city or town in the state; and it is all due, largely, to our cowards, individuals, and the public. The proposed change, with an "Uncle Tom," met-too-boats, weakened, guineas, pussyfooting, THE HOUSTON INFORMER SPOKE IN NEW ORLEANS TUESDAY DR. ROBERT BUBSA MOTON, successor to the late Dr. Bocker T.

"The race problem in America can be solved by the patient and persistent application of Christian principle." Such was the case of Dr. D. L. D., L.D. of Princeton, moderator of the Presbyterian general assembly, who convened the Presbyterian Council. The sessions of the council will continue until the thirty-first year in the life of the organization. Dr. Erdman stated that some phases of the race problem were as acute as ever, but all that could be done was sympathy and unselfish service. "No race in the world should require the assistance of others," said Dr. Erdman. "it is the duty of each individual to strive hopeful." I watched a Negro burned at the stake at Rocky Ford, Miss, Sunday afternoon. I watched an angry mob chain him to an iron truss. I watched him plow wood along his helpless body.

"We should be guilty of no denominationism, and we should seek to attain the idealeds held by Prebyterianism in common with other Christianism." The Prebyterian church has always emphasized the need of education and the duty of evangelism."Moderator Erdman said a high tribute to the late Robert C.

I stood in a crowd of 600 people as the flames gradually creep near me, watched the blaze begin higher and higher, encircling him without mercy, watched the base climb higher and reached him and set his clothing on fire. "Iob. God; ch. God!" he shouted. "I didn't do it. Have mercy!" he meered. "I have mercy!" he reached him and set his clothing on fire. He kicked the chain loosened from his ankles but it bolt his waist and neck against the iron post that become嵌嵌 with the intense heat. "Have mercy!" he said. "I didn't do it."

Y.—In keeping with the rapid increase in colored population throughout the United States, and the advance made by Negroes in business and industry, the problem of expansion into fields hereafter untouched by the Young Men's Christian Association, is uppermost, at this time, in the minds of its 32,000 colored members. Officials of the colored work department of the national council here declare that "the response of the American Union to the problem of expansion to Y. M. C. A. and the tremendous need for such service encourages the leadership to plan for unprecedented campaign of expansion." In two fields notably the Negro assessment of the most greatest opportunity for development in the interest of character-building among men and boys. These fields are the small towns and rural areas of the South and the huge metropolitan areas of the North, where the longest-term constantly on the increase. “The Y. M. C. A., next to the church and the school,” said Channing H. Tobias, senior secretary of colored work of the national council, “is making a great effort to increase the character development of the colored man and boy in America. Our membership has increased more than 4,000 since last year, two new buildings at a joint cost of nearly $600,000 have been built in the new building, and more than two millions of men and boys have been served through our activities, but we feel that we have hardly scratched the surface of our possibilities when we think of the future. The great need for the support and boys in the rural districts, in transportation service and other industries, to whom the helpful services of the Y. M. C. A. might be extended. The question of expansion is expected to occupy a leading position in discussions of the Twenty-first National Conference on Colored Work to be held October 21 to 23 at Washington, D. C., where the first colored Y. M. C. A. was established seventy-two years ago. Prominent at the conference will be Dr. John R. Mott, general secretary of the American Association of the American Y.

Ivy, who denied having anything to do with the attack. He was taken to Tupelo for safe keeping. Rocky Ford citizens went into court and obtained a writ forcing the sheriff to return the Negro to New Albany for identification. In New Albany hospital the girl was asked to identify the Negro Sunday morning. She was not sure, but thought he looked like the one who had attacked her. PRICE: 5 CENTS COLORED K. P.

Having for a purpose the encouragement of the colored race to be "more thrifty, dependable and lawabiding and in every respect good citizens for the community in which they live," the Colored Knights of Pythias of Texas have launched a unique educational campaign, which they hope to carry throughout the state.

You do not want to do for the Negro is to help the Negro help himself. This is the real significance of a reproof. It is something for a man at all, it is in proportion as it helps him to solve his own problems and to supply his own The principals of the various schools were called upon to represent their institutions and much valuable information in the various schools. Among those introduced were, the Rev. Jas. S. Russell, M.A.; the Rev. James C. Russell, principal School of Lawrenceville, Va., who founded that school thirty-seven years longest in the Episcopal educational work; Rev. Edgar H.-G. Good, M.A.; principal of Augustine College; C.

What he does need is an education that puts him into a position to supply his own needs and satisfy his own desires. The more education that more and more is given to the Negro by private schools the more education that is education that in large degree accounts for the rapid progress which the Negro is making along all the way. "But remember, my friends, there is vastly more to be done than we think. We must prove that the Negro race has reduced its illiteracy in sixty years from $55 million to $20 million and write is just the beginning of education. Our private schools are the only institutions turning away thousands of students who are clamoring for admission. Schools of college education are the only institutions of college of this number that should be graduating if Negroes had college facilities at the time. Schools of college education are today still doing the work that should be done by high schools. Schools of college education have Negroes had more than a dozen high schools maintained at public schools. Schools of college education have nearly one million Negroes of children."

The trip will be made immediately after her appearance at the North Carolina State Fair, where she is to be presented as one of the features, an unusual distinction for a person of color. Mrs. Hunter, who is a graduate of the Chicago Musical College, through her ability as a soloist has gained the plaudits of the musical critics wherever she has appeared. According to the Durham Morning Herald, Mrs. Hunter "possesses a lyric soprano of remarkable charm and purity of tone." Another musical critic on the Raleigh Times declares she "has a splendid voice, smooth, flexible, and clean in all of its ranges."

COLORED GROUP BENEFITS FROM PHILANTHROPY COLORED GROUP BENEFITS FROM PHILANTHROPY Julius Rosenwald, Weighty Jahav Jewish Merchant, Largest Single Donor to Dixie Ne- tlement. Educational Advance- ment. (Columbian Press Bureau,) Washington, D. C.—Two thousand, nine hundred and forty colored schools, having a total value of $12,400,000, now dot the Southern states as monuments to the good will of Northern philanthropists, chief among whom is Julius Rosenwald, the wealthy Chicago donor, who takes special delight in advancing the educational facilities open to the struggling Negro youth of that part of the country in which educational needs are the greatest. When it is considered that Negro's illiteracy in Georgia, Alabama, Florida and Mississippi is showing a slow but steady decline, due credit must be given to those persons who realize that the ignorance of any race is a menace to the nation. The schools which have received the greatest aid are Negro rural schools. Under the Rosenwald plan and similar ones, each school has at least two acres of land as a site, providing playgrounds and rooms for some elementary work in agriculture. Each has, in addition to its school rooms and cloak rooms, one or two rooms for industrial work for boys and girls. Each school building is constructed from carefully prepared plans embodying the most modern ideas regarding lighting and seating. Each is painted or stained, inside and out. The co-operative construction work is carried on during a budget year run in the state of Arkansas. Operating states are Maryland, Virginia, West Virginia, Florida, Alabama, Mississippi Louisiana, Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas. The state's public schools' applications are approved by the state department of education in each state. The outlays are supervised and by it the final inspection is made. In this way the outlays are used to best the educational asapies and with absolute assurance of honest scholarship. The budget year which closed June 30, 2014, was at an outlay of $6,000,000, five hundred twenty projects were completed. The types of construction during the year were fairly typical of what has been done by 78 projects which cost less than $2,000. There were six which cost much more, and by thousand dollars, there were 131 costing between $2,000 and $4,000; 121 costing between $4,000 and $5,000; 87 between $4,000 and $10,000; 24 between $10,000 and $40,000; and 40,000. The two Carolan, where the new educational movement of the leaders, North Carolina building 56 schools, and South Carolina 79 schools, and North Carolina building 69 schools, were also where the type that expatriate commonwealth. The general summary shows that since the construction of aid now totaling $2,200,000 there have been 240 buildings erected and a pupil capacity of 333,100.

Imported Havanas of all description and cigarettes of various brands were at the every beck and call of the guests, who numbered many of the leading business and professional men of the city. These men came, saw and were overwhelmed by the hospitality and generosity of the Harts. Games, chats and jokes enlivened the otherwise live occasion and many of the guests departed rather reluctantly "in the wee" small hours of the morning, unanimous in their verdict that the Hart smoker was a veritable "knock-out." The main ultimate object of this smoker was not divulged, but those present agreed that the means certainly justified the end, and if there was any purpose, the men were solidly sold to it with Wednesday evening's smoker.

MOTON IN SPEECH TELLS MASS MEETING CHURCH MUST STAND FOR JUSTICE New Orleans, La. Oct. 15.—Jerusalem Temple was packed Tuesday night when the American Institute for Negroes, the Episcopal body having charge of the schools devoted to the education of colored children, held its mass meeting to bring before the public the work the institute is doing for the betterment of Negroes. Fully three-fourths of the audience was white with the colored people assigned one half of the first floor and others occupying seats where they choose. Earlier in the afternoon hundreds of the delegates to the triennial convention of the Protestant Episcopal Church had visited Gauet Normal and Industrial Institute and were favorably impressed with the school as a typical example of the work the institute is doing. During its meeting, in a stirring account recounting the broad scope of the institute's work, the Rev, Robert W. Patton, director of the institute, eloquently appealed to his audience to aid in the work undertaken. Mr. Louis B. Franklin, vice president of the National Council of the Episcopal Church, was introduced and the institute is doing, pointing out that in 1930 the budget for the institute was $140,000. Mr. Franklin, Jr. said that convention has been asked to appropriate $140,000. Mr. Franklin, Jr. said that one of the reasons for the continued increase in appropriations to the institute is that we always promptly supply information concerning its work, clearly detail its needs and guarantee that all funds are properly used. Under present conditions, I believe the church in its earnest desire to help the Negro can no longer provide service in this cause than to see that the Negro can no longer deal with what we call the Negro problem: have possession of the facts necessary and guaranteed that all funds are properly used. Time was when the Negro question was a matter of agitation. That day, it is becoming more and more a matter for investigation. School Heads Speak. The principals of the various schools were called upon to represent their institutions and much valuable information was given concerning the various schools. Among those introduced were, the Rev. Jas. S. Russell, D. D., of St. Paul's Normal and Industrial School of Lawrenceville, Va., who founded that school thirty-seven years ago and in point of service is the longest in the Episcopal educational work; Rev. Edgar H. Goold, M.A. principal of St. Augustine's School, Raleigh, N.C.; J. E. Blanton, principal of Voorhees Normal and Industrial School, Denmark, S.C.; W. Augustine Perry, M.A., principal of St. Athanasius School, Brunswick, Ga.; Rev. Chas. W. Brooks, principal of St. Mark's School, Birmingham, Ala.; Prof. Wallace A. Battle, A.B. principal of Okolona Industrial School, Okolona, Miss.; Rev. Joseph N. Carter, principal of Gaudet Normal, New Orleans, and Mrs. H. A. Hunt, who represented her husband, the principal of the Fort Valley High and Industrial School, Fort Valley, Ga. Moton Principal Speaker. Then, as if to emphasize the work that these educators were doing, Dr. Robert R. Moton, principal of Tuskegee Institute, was introduced as the foremost representative of his race in America. Dr. Moton paid a deserved commitment to the individuals who had spoken, stating that he was visited each of the schools save the one at Okolona, Miss., and then praised the Episcopal Church for the great work it is doing and its unswerving loyalty to the community of the advancement of the colored man in America. In concluding his address Dr. Moton said the Negro wanted to be considered simply as a human being and an American citizen. His address, in part, was as follows: Dr. Moton's Speech. "In the first place, I want to emphasize the service that the church can render to my people by getting the facts, the cold, hard unsentimental facts about the Negro in America. There are a great many people in our country who are perfectly satisfied with their own all about the Negro. My experience has been that the man who claims to know all about the Negro is the man who very often knows least about him. "The Negro has suffered from nothing so much perhaps as from the prevailing ignorance about his condition. Indeed, I do not see any man in the longevity of the most endureable continue if his white neighbors actually know what was going on." Mentions "Jim Crow" Cars. "I wonder tonight just how many of my hearters know what the Negro is, and how many of them day or all night trip in a Jim Cimar car. I wonder how many know the Negro is, and how many are due for lack of water and sewage connections, electric lights, and police cars where he lives. How many have visited the Negro schools to see the Negro students in public school facilities provided for them. On the other hand, how many in this audience tonight know that there are 76 Negro doctors and 1,109 dentists that treat Negro patients, and that by Negroes and the race pays taxes on nearly two billion dollars worth of health care in our national life called the "Negro problem" is the result of ignorance of Negro doctors, and that is assumed to be true that are not true, that which is true of Negro doctors. often accepted an characteristic of the race as a whole. Church Can Render Aid. "Under present conditions, I believe the church in its earnest desire to help the Negro can fender no greater service in this cause than seeing to it that those who in any way must deal with what we call the 'Negro problem' have possession of the facts of the case before they reach their decisions. Time was when the Negro question was a matter of agitation. That day is paid to it becoming more and more matter for investigation. "Another thing of the first is the importance which the church can do for the Negro is to help the Negro help himself. This is the real significance of education. If education does anything for a man at all, it is in proportion as it helps him to solve his own problems and to supply his own needs." "The Negro does not need an education that merely makes him dissatisfied with his present condition. What he does need is an education that puts him into a position to supply his own needs and satisfy his own aspirations. That is the kind of education that is being and more and more is being given to the Negro by private school and public school students. And it is that education that in large degree accounts for the rapid progress which the Negro race is making along all lines of advancement." "But remember, my friends, there are more to learn than one at a time, and are doing more than one at the same time that the Negro race has reduced is literacy in sixty years from 30% to 15%. And write is just the beginning of education, and private schools are the first to turn away thousands of students and are turning away thousands of students. Schools of college grade have only about one-tenth of the number of students in the public schools had college facilities equal to, to the youth of the white class, and still doing the work that should be done by high schools and only within the last ten years of high schools maintained at public exhibitions. There are nearly one million Negro children of school age for whom there are practical lengths of term for the majority of those who are in the primary grades. Church Voice Too Weak. “It is not necessary to rehearse before this gathering the wrongs which the Negro has already endured with great patience. What I want to do is to ask the church to assert a right that is already theirs to challenge the Christian conscience of America to a practice of that zeal for righteousness and that profession of brotherhood which is the acknowledged ideal of Christianity. I am persuaded that the church has nothing whatsoever to lose but very much to gain in such a crusade. Men expect, whether or in the church or without the church—men expect the pulpit to declare the truth without fear or favor. No one would be surprised, no one would be indignant, to hear the church call for justice. We all like to think that the church has in all ages been the bulwark of justice. We all like to believe that the church is foremost in the demand for righteousness. But in a sober truth, on this one question, this are many who believe that the church of the church has been too weak and faltering. There are those who believe that the church has not risen to its opportunity in this direction; that it has been too well satisfied to give aims, too well satisfied to minister to the body, while it stood hesitant and fearful to voice this higher call. Prejudice Endangers Prosperity. "Our country is the very prosperous, the most prosperous in the world, the most prosperous in the world, but there is room, much room to stand forth and cry aloud that the Negro is the most prosperous and that it will not embitter the prosperity and dim the deeds on which our Republic "Religion has been a great boon and comfort to the Negro in all of his endeavors," the Negro looks more than anything else for his salvation in this world and for his future.

WORKMAN WRITES NO MYSTERY INVOLVED Mrs. Albert Workman, Sr., wife of the late head of the Longshoremen's Association, has written a letter denying a recent article in these columns. The letter speaks for itself, and is printed an written by Mrs. Workman, who is now living in Chicago. “The news article appearing in the Houston Informer of September 1928 headed 'Mystery of Labor Head Assets Solved' may be deemed by some as complimentary. If so, then I thank the writer for his or her 'good intention'. However, I fail to appreciate the compliment encouched therein as I do not, never have, and never will appreciate the activity of notoriety and publicity. The whole thing is a name on somebody's misinformed imagination, and unwarranted curiosity which has devolved itself into something 'mysterious' only to them. To those whose business the situation really is—to those who are really concerned—there isn't the least bit of 'mystery'—who is anything. “Then, too, there is not a word of truth in the statement ‘the entertains in a most lavish manner.’ Even if I did it is not a matter for unsolicited publicity. Not one of those who visited here from New Orleans can truthfully say that he or she had as much information as any other person.” “I fail to see and appreciate the article as being complimentary in that it paints me as being unwarrantedly extravagant and puts me in the flapper class.

E JARVIS YELLOW JACKETS MINUS STING AT WILEY (By W. C. LEE.) Marshall, Texas October 10.—The Jarvis Yellow Jackets invaded the lair of the Willey Wildcats and were promptly scratched here this afternoon to the tune of 42.0. The one sidedness of the score does not, how ever, indicate the calibre of the game played, as it was marked with some splendidness on the part of both the wildcats. Wiley on the 42.0. the Captain McMillan and the dashing Bennie Cavill would not be stopped. Supporting these men, Miller, Scott, Lorden and Donnell, played an important part in the opening game of the 1925 schedule. The work of Hebert and Brown on end was high class. In Reds at the guard, Immed and Rivins, the tackle was not only being improved upon. "Rolling Stone" Owena was as brilliant as ever at guard. Wiley resorted to straight football, and tried few forward passes, as has been their custom for the last two years. Tackle plays, end runs and smashes at center netted the Wildcats first down the end. The team was at the first half the score stood, Wiley 25, Jarvis 0, Cavill and McMillan scoring two touchdowns each. With most of the Wildcat second team in the fray at the beginning of the second half, the Jarvis boys gave them real fight and the Wildcats were held scoreless; however, Coach Long sent in most of his first string line-up with about two times to win in the last two years and they proceeded to score three more touchdowns. Captain Grant of the Jarvis eleven was as brilliant as any man on the field, as was Coss, the fighting Jarvis center, until he was forced from the game with a badly wrenched ankle. Wiley meets Sam Huston at Austin Friday, October 16, and the following Monday, October 19, she meets Langston University of Oklahoma in Dallas at Fair Stadium. This promises to be one of the largest games of the intercollegiate season. A special train will be run from Marshall to the State Fair, carrying about four hundred Wiley students and supporters. Langston walloped Wiley last year by the score of 20-0, and the Wildcats are out for revenge this season. WILEY WILDCATS WILL TACKLE P.V. PANTHERS ON LATTER'S GRIDIRON Houstonians and others in South Texas will have their first chance and only one of the chances of the (on) to see two strong football games in action at Prairie View on Sat. (on) to see the game of Marshall will invade the air of the Prairie View Panthers. Both schools are anxious to win. Heccles of Wiley and Francie View, respectively, are "expecting their first game in this gridron classic." The game begins at 3:30 p.m. and the game will be played both schools will be present to witness the game and pull for their favorite team. Y. W. C. A. NOTES.

HOUSTON, TEXAS, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 17, 1925 SUBORDINATING OUR PERSONAL INTERESTS. Unless some of our people, who profess such an anxiety to see that the right type and calibre of man is selected as the next principal of Prairie View State Normal and Industrial College, subordinate their little personal interests and cease to boost and nurture their interests, they are not trained for the principalship, we are going to make a worse mess out of the Prairie View situation than obtains at present. The Informer is firm in its opinion that our main content at this stage of the game is to prove to the Prairie View board that the eratwish most formidable candidate for the place is not qualified nor fitted for the post, and that it would be calamitous to the school and Negro education to appoint such a man as head of the school. To trot out any makeshift or compromise candidate, just to have some one to oppose Tarver, who has or has had the backing of some powerful political influences in this state, will merely further ambush and complicate the present situation. It is up to us to first prove to the entire satisfaction of the principalship, but this paper will as strongly oppose any other candidate, and we must do Prairie View no good, but that on the other hand he can do the school and race a deal of harm if elevated to the principalship of this state school. As stated previously in these columns, The Informer is not opposed to Tarver merely because it is he who is aspiring for the principalship, but this paper will as strongly oppose any other candidate, and we must do Prairie View no good, but that on the other hand he can do the school and race a deal of harm if elevated to the principalship of this state school. With every Tom, Dick and Harry hurling his into the ring for the Prairie View principalship, it will resolve into a mad scramble and will tend to strengthen the cause of Tarver; for it will appear to the board and unbiased persons that the fight against the principalship is unfathi and that his opponents are actuated by ulterior motives. The Informer suggests that we bend all our efforts just now to see that the board does not appoint the wrong man as head of Prairie View, and to prevent such appointment we advise that the board delay its selection until ample time has been afforded its right man as next principal of this state institution of learning. Furthermore, The Informer knows that the board will experience some little difficulty in landing the right man for this place with the present small salary, and business experience has taught all students of economics that the cheapest is rarely ever the best. The Prairie View Alumni Association can render a noteworthy and signal service to its alma mater by refusing to support and advocate any particular man for principal just now, and under no circumstances should this organization recommend a man for the post whose only claim to such a position of trust, honor, service or education is to teach students of economics. Being a composite institution of learning, doing collegiate work and awarding degrees, it would be foolhardy and rankest tooferly to place a man at the head of such a school with only a high school or normal education, and whose educational career has not been advanced by study and post-work since graduation 15 years ago. We roughly will face the music right now and be fair and honest with ourselves; for The Informer knows practically all of the men in the race for the Prairie View post (men who are seeking the job rather than the job seeking them) and not a single one, with one possible exception (and this particular exception has a bad reputation for not paying his honest debts), is qualified for the job, and the school would soon become a huge joke under such administration. Prairie View's physical equipment is about the best among such institutions of its kind maintained and operated by Southern states for Negro education, but the school is not living up to its opportunities and its educational standard and thoroughness do not compare favorably with at least two other colored colleges in Texas. To raise this standard and make the school a real training center for the colored youth of Texas, we propose educator, administrator, executive and disciplinary staff to select as its next principal; and The Inferior hope to extend the ward of directors will be in no hausto to elect the new head of school, and that our people will subordinate their leadership and premature amititions and all work for the best in education in our state school. ```markdown ``` a real training cen- educator, admini- selected as its next directors will provide training and premature am ur state school. The Houston Informer THE WEEK THE WEEK DECENT STREET DECORUM AND DEPARTMENT. Now and again one hears the young Negro complaining about having no chance, having nothing to do, no chance to make money, no chance to use the education that he acquires in the schools. There is one thing that every young Negro has a chance to do and that is to depot himself with greater decorum and decency: to street cars and in the public, and to the public, to the young. A young man's progress on street cars is disgraceful and disgusting. Very often this same kind of nauseating conduct is noticed on the part of older men and women. There is a type of young Negro who seems to feel that it is his place to entirely fill any place that he is allowed in. He usually fills the place with noise. He is in the state of a person's interest, and he is in the state of a person's interest. He has been them whistle at girls—both black and white into one seat together, from the cars; I have seen three or four of them pile into all the other. I have seen them sing and play guitars and banjoz; I have heard and seen them laugh loudly and continuously at some alleged humorous remark of one of their numbers. I have seen them use profanity and obedience that could be heard by lady Pewgongers. I have seen them enter the car in full monkey regalies and start as though they were the princes of the jungle. I have seen them noisy and bolsterous in the theatre to the discontent of other patrons, have been the laughing in front of our churches waiting for the girls to come to the stadiums. I have seen the young men of the same time being women as they passed along the street while at the same time Negro men were on the street. I have seen the men of the same time being men. I have seen all of this and more. And as I look at it I begin to doubt that the Negroes who are different can carry the tremendous burden much longer. I have seen the men of the same time in the state of the world, which they see daily in public, disporting themselves like so many jungle apes. I have seen the men of the same time in the state of the young. What we need among us is about five million funerals. DOES THE SIGHT OF JIM CROW CARS AND JIM CROW ELEVATORS QUICKEN ONE'S EAR TO HEAR A CALL DOES THE SIGHT OF JIM CROW CARS AND JIM CROW ELEVATORS QUICKEN ONE'S EAR TO HEAR A CALL It has been rumored in various sections both North and South in the past six weeks or two months, that Dr. Earnest Hall, pastor of Liberty Baptist Church, Atlanta, has been called to a prominent Baptist church in Cleveland, Ohio. To what church Dr. Earnest has been the call of "the call" could not be sacramized by his father, the official "part of " "Dunkin' Porkers" persists in different that Dr. Hall is soon to depart from these "mundane" covenants to take up his residence in the "Back-Eye State." This rumor has occasioned a great deal of concern, because of the place Dr. Hall has occupied in the civic and religious life of Atlanta and Georgia. We shall be loath to give him up, and do so if at all, under protest. We have been so far in the years since the first year of the report being circulated that "Petsons" are Bryant had been called to "Destroyit" way up in Michigan. Less than a fortnight ago, it officially came that Dr. Russell Brown, pastor of the First Congregational Church, Atlanta, for the past four years, had tendered his resignation and had accepted work with the Mt. Zion Congregational Church, Cleveland, Ohio. This news came as the "last straw that broke the came's back," and we are not sure of what we who of our prominent divines will soon "hear another call," and respond to it. The going away of so many of our prominent men has stimulated speculation in certain quarters respecting all of the influences surrounding their life and their life and their leadership. There is a need to see a popular fitness, ability and training, together with the experient of that fit them in a special way for occupying positions of leadership in other sections. The most important part of the work is to be a very well-being of training and equipping station for men who have the ability and quality of their love to the real outstanding leaders. The other communities ought to feel grateful to Atlanta and Georgia for this contribution to their general welfare. Atlanta has been estimated that her favorable sons are sought with such per� science by others. If the above is true then let us thank God and take courage as we go forth to the great success of our leadership. There is no another rumor affect to the effect that the appearance of and over present "Jim" is the same as "Jim Crow" elevators, the "colored this" and the "colored that" give them all the help to the call to other elders. If the latter is true then will be the only step in which we can't get the If the outstanding men and women of our race are leaving Georgia because they receive better treatment, a larger measure of justice and fair deal with them is necessary. We urge Georgia. We pray for the time to come when Georgia as well as many of the other states will be able to treat all men who will want to leave them because of not receiving a square deal. We will not allow any of the men to remain in the context until there is as much justice, fairness, and impartiality in dealing with the race and individuals in Georgia as there can be found anywhere else in the country. "EVERY EFFORT TO PUNISH LYNCHERS" By WILLIAM PICKENS. Appleauce! And yet we have seen a statement under this heading printed, sometimes without comment, in many Negro wecklies. Those "good" white folks who want to hide the shame of Georgia for lynching an insane, "Nogah" and "Nogah" are the same thing as the same as the others. George is apparently ashamed of the brutal deed to want to make the rest of the world think that Georgia is going to punish somebody for it. But Georgia has unleashed nobody for the 600 lynchings! "Oh, but this offering for $600—Well, If I had the money, I could serenely offer a reward of $600,000 for every one of these lynchers that Georgia will punish! It is easy to offer rewards that you know will never have to be paid. If Georgia really wanted to punish anybody, it would not be necessary to offer any rewards, but only to send two or three even third-class men to the same place in the few days could have the name and address of every man of any consequence who thrived that means any. Even some of those crazy people could tell who is the mob were. Why do colored newspapers "bite" at this camouflaging propaganda emanating from Atlanta? I do not mean that they should not print it, but they should not find it. Without commenting on it in a way to show that they are not foolers, I do not think that there is no good one to do. But the average colored man will not be fooled. He knows how� insincere the dominating influence of the South. They are always raving in that same way. And the same thing is that the South Carolina is convicted of raping a little more control on the young people, who are himself says fought him like a young tigress, the court gives him a lot of money. It is a thing to get that suspended. It is all about their being opposed to rape. People are very poor. The political and industrial equality for black people. For every case of the South, the state is a whole thing. All the men in the South are of actual rape of colored people, but while men are of the same kind, it is, and they know that not only of a thousand will be punished for either the man or girl. By ERNEST RICE McKINNEY (Preston News Service.) DECENT STREET DECORUM AND DEPOT one哀ears the young Negro complaining nothing to do, no chance to make more money, and no chance to make more money, one thing that every young Negro has a chance with greater decorum and deposition of places. The conduct of a large part of the is disgraceful and disgusting. Very often conduct is noticed on the part of older men who are not interested in the art and any place that he is allowed in. He usually strolls the street car is his stage and he whistle at girls—both black and white; I have seen three or four of them plim in the street and play gulls and bumblebees loudly and prominently at some alleged number, and them use profanity and obedience that I have seen them enter the car in full manner to come out, creating disorder and blocking the way they pass along the street while at the door they step to create women from the white men who are different can carry this tremendous we will succeed in our desire to make white men less likely to yield to our sorting themselves like so many jungle apes.

QUESTIONS—ANSWERS IN NEGRO HISTORY BY GEORGE WELLS PARKER Author, "The Children of the Sun" Questions pertaining to Negro biography and not too long, will be answered by an author who will not permit the subject to automatically state, will be appropriately instituted, and when a standardized biography to George W. Welks Parker, a man famous to Georgia, Amana Avenue, Chicago, Illinois. Copyright, 1934. Associated Negro Authors. Mr. P. L. H. of Portland, Oregon, questions the assertion that Matthias Koehler, a man famous to asserting that the latter probably never reached the pole. In answer one can only say that the official records still stand until sufficient evidence is brought forth to disprove them. In the theory of evolution is the theory that man is the only species that the Noriel—B. L. M. Syracuse, N. Y. No. According to anthropologists there are as many variables to be considered as species and one is no nearer the primal type than the other. Was Anso, the author of the famous octanus fables, a Negro? G. P. T. Sesquicentennial. Brendan. His contemporaries described him as a "person uncommon among the African people, flat lips thick and pendant, a humpback and back completion, from which he can conceive of a coopin, being the same as Ethiopia." What was the immediate cause of the freedom of the slaves in the war of the rebellion? - B. C. S., Natches. The need of soldiers. The North had to have more soldiers and when the prosecution of the war department, the Negro was considered. in the debate it was an argument. The debate was with propriety unless first free and the result was the emancipation. See *The Great Compracy*; by Honor Greeley. Which religion has more converts among the African - Christianity or Mohammedanism? - F. K. J., Boston. Mobammedanism I have recently seen "The Two Commandments," *Delilah*, and in this book "The Mexican War," as white. How do you account for this? G-W, W. W. Chicago, subversive to him to his own devices. Every great Egyptologist of today admits that the Egyptians were Negro and white, the Upper Nile was wholly black. Some time ago I was told that a Negro built a railroad in Mexico for the Mexican government. Is it true that it built, H. H. T. Denver, Colo. In 1987, under the Diaz regime a Canadian engineering firm secured a colorado railroad charge. It built a construction satisfaction of the Mexican government. I met this man personally. WHATNOT DEPT. (By R. P. Edwards). (For the Associated Negro Press.) What happened in 1880 while Harriet Tubman was visiting in Troy, -N.Y. On her way to attend a large anti-slavery conclave in Boston, Harriet Tubman carried through an infiltration of the slave trade against the U. S. authorities. She had stopped to visit a conspiracy in Troy, N. Y., and there learn that a fugitive slave named Charles Nail was been followed by his master. The latter, much to Harriet's surprise, was taken by the officers of the Troy himself. The slave was already in the hands of the officers and had been remanded back to Virginia. Harriet raised a mob which created a turnout of Commissioners and during this tumult, she suddenly seized the fugitive. What woman fired a shot heard "round the world" in 1882? "Uncle Tom's Cain" by Mr. Hirschi Beetcher Stove may fairly be the most famous of the fictive slave law, and no other book ever produced an effect so quickly on the public mind. It was published in the civilized countries within the next two years. In picture of slavery was the realization of the whole world, and the institution was arranged upon it, for a more impressive judgment than Christenberg. OPINIONS INFORMOGRAMS By S. B. Williams We wonder what our silent present, Calvin Coolidge, was referring to in his Omaha speech, before the war in the Philippines, as the results of the war will be lost and we shall only be entering a period of preparation for another conflict, unless we can demobilize the racial and ethnic groups, and create an attitude of toleration, and I believe that the place where it should begin is at home. The Baltimore Afro-American says: "Man wakes up in the morning after a day of advertising on an advertised mattress; takes off advertised paima; takes a shower on advertised soap; takes a shower on advertised soap; rashes with advertised soap;powers his face with an advertised soap; sits down to underwear, hose, shirt, collar, shoes, handkerchief; sits down to drinks advertised coffee; puts on an advertised hat; lights an advertised car; drives an advertised car on advertised tires, where he refuses to advertise on the ground." The daily sales are filled with reports of young men in positions of responsibility coming up short in their accounts. What is contributing to this condition? The wild night life in most of our cities and the auto craze are getting their share of the responsibility for such cases. Money may be the cheapest thing in the world, but it is causing more bloodshed, wrecked homes, debauched lives and shrivelled characters than any other commodity for which the people of the civilized world ever attempted to acquire. Some of our Northern exchanges are favorably impressed with the reception the Negro organizations received in Southern cities, while holding their conventions during the past summer. In Tulsa, Okla., where one of the worst race riots in history occurred just a few years ago, was held the annual meeting of the National Negro Business League and the reception our people received at the hands of the white citizens, strikes our Northern brothers are being so social phenomenal, and also did the welcome and reception of the Improved Benevolent Protective Order of Elks of the World by the city officials and citizens of Richmond, Va. The New York Age, in an editorial has this to say about Richmond's entertainment of the Elks, quoting from Lester Walton in the New York World: The signs in street cars indicating "Seats for Colored Passengers" and "Seats for White Passengers" were taken down. Negroes sat wherever they saw fit. Even restaurants where negroes never had broken bread were thrown open. The public accommodation. For the first time in its history Richmond temporarily took on the habits and customs of a liberal Northern city. "The Elks and other Negro strangers were also on their good behavior. Nearly 1,000 delegates attended. Hundreds of sightseers came from distant and adjacent points. They with much inflow and in Negroes that ever assembled in Richmond, there was not one arrest during the week. The leading white people do not hesitate to say the convention was not only a record-breaker numerically but that it was one of the most orderly." That when we get what we want, we don't want it any more, is being brought to our attention lately by the recent appeals in Negro journals published in cities of the North and West where our people have the ballot, to exercise this privilege. Here in the Southland we are constantly deploring the fact that our constitutional right to suffrage has, by one subterfuge or another, been and is not used by more than the same amount of the public accommodation. It is not well-plagued in the use of this much-tempered American right.
