Jackson, Miss.-Representative Mississippi women, leaders in many important religious and civic groups, have launched a determined campaign against lynching and mob violence in this State. The opening gun was the following statement, which was framed in the context of prominent women held here on call of the Mississippi Inter-racial Committee: "We believe in only the single standard of morals for all races, and the protection of the womanhood of the women of all races, and that it should under all circumstances be respected and uphold by all citizen.

Detroit, Mich. Nov. 19—After a shot from a gun in unknown hands had killed Leon Breiner, neighbors who had once before met to discuss the undesirability of a Negro neighbor, held a second meeting the night after the shooting it was revealed Thursday. It was Darrow's first time to get an admission that the whites of the neighborhood had held a meeting. The admission came from Mrs. Florence Warz. She said that they went to the police station, but changed and said the police men on the corner and the people the men had got to admit that Darrow had gotten to admit her and been held that there was a any stones thrown that she did not see No Conspiracy Been by Court. Though the state produced considerable evidence that Breiner was killed by a gunman, the prosecutor said that little or no disturbance preceded the riot, Judge Frank Murphy said Friday that he did not consider the shooting to be a duce, to justify a charge of conspiracy to murder. The prosecutor agreed to completely surpass prosecutor Tomca. Dismissal Is Predicted. So far the state's testimony tends to show Sweet moved into his house and then to other sections of the city and that all the defendants were found there in the house, in the arms, ammunition and food. The defense to be presented by Darrow is to prove that he was been stoned. The state's statement came during examination of inspector McPearson, head of the police blackhawk squad when he certified had offended. The defense to be presented by structured Sweet to let him know whenever anything looked suspicious. Darrow said that the inspector could be held binding only as to the defendants who actually prosecution contended under the conspiracy court it would be binding on the inspector. "That may be true," Judge Murphy said, "but this time the court not be bothered with spray. The testimony of this will be heard by Dr. Sweet and who will be heard his conversation with the inspector." For dismissal as soon as the state rests its case. Indications that the state will be unable to sustain its conspiracy MEMPHIS BUSINESS MAN VISITS TEXAS; STARKS HIS GUIDE Mr. Wikerson was very favorably impressed with Texas and its colored culture, and he took the teachers; stating that "Kentucky is the only state in the South that ranks with Texas when it comes to Negroes."

For a time it looked as though there would be no league this year due to the fact that the world's three-cushion champion, and the failure of the league officials to get Willey Hope to not be represented this year. DEMPSEY CAN SET RECORD NEXT YEAR Unquestionably Jerries would have been far out in front as an enduring hero after looking over the field and concluding no other logical opponent existed. At the time the California War had been on top for six full years. When Jeft did come back in 1910, lured by the pot of gold dangled enchanted by his refreshed beak by Text Hickard as a challenger, not as champion. Jorn Corbett won the title from John L. Kimberly. Corbett won the title in 1952 and held it a little less than five years. Bob Fitzsimons succeeded Corbett and was champion for a trifle more years. Tommy Burke held on for three years. Finally Johnson caught up with him in Australia and reduced him to not if not wholly recognizable debt. You will note no mention is made of the duration of John L. Reign's war. Nor is it known that Corbett and the bare knuckles aren't considered in this composition. Nor is any mention made of the inconsequential Marvin Hart, upon whom he bestowed his hat when he retired. Captain of Indiana The photograph shows Lawrence Marks, captain and halfback of the Indiana university grid team. Marks has been a spectacular open runner and some of his opponents are apt to wonder what they have hit when tackling the big Hoosier this fall, for he has been training as a member of a railroad car repair gang this summer. Wheat Gets 100 Runs when the veteran Zach Wheat scored his one hundredth run of the game in the 100th minute for himself in this department of play. For despite his many years of play, he has earned a came-up in 100–200 century mark in scoring runs. On several occasions Wheat got above average in his ability to always felt aby of getting 100 scores.

But it is probable none has caused graver consequences. Voting booths is already arousing in certain quarters. The internet is not confined to the republican party. A question now of real moment, and which threatens to undermine the state, is solid political wisdom by as antagonizing factions as "Will the democrats discrast the white man's population? Will they open the gate and scramble, side by side for the sizeable vote of the 900,000 Negro population of Paradise? It was not until the candidates threw the blacks and nuns out of the polls and waged two years, that the vote of the Negro became important to that party.

TEXTS avoid of fire toward God, and TEXTS avoid of fire toward God, and PRIMARY TOPIC-Why Paul Was JUNIOR TOPIC-Paul Before Paul JUNIOR TOPIC-Paul Before Paul IC-Paul Before Pauls A Contrast TOUGH PROBLEMS AND ADULT TOPIC TOUGH PROBLEMS AND ADULT TOPIC 1. Paul Accused (vv. 1-9). Paul was now in the hands of Felix who determined to hear his case after his accusers had come from Jerusalem. He came with Tertullius, perhaps a Roman barrister, who formally made the accession according to Roman law. He was the faithful witness to the fullest praise when he and all the people knew that he lied, for Felix was one of the worst judges, destitute of morals and justice. He brought a stone to the court, and he said, "A. I. Pestellian Fellow" (v. 5). This would indicate a fellow utterly base and corrupt—a plague, and Rebellion, a Mover of Sedition (v. 5). This they hoped would bring him into conflict with the Roman power. Of course, he was a Sect—Schematic Part—of the Hercus (v. 5). A designed to throw contempt and suspicion upon the Christians, by this means to bring Paul into deeper trouble. He was Profiled on the村 (v. 6). In this chapter we are the wickedness who falsely suppressed facts. This is a splendid example of the kind of life controlled by a noble purpose, and who has nothing to conceal, and will not distort or suppress facts. 1. Paul's Frankness and Courtesy Wait, is entirely wrong. Wishing it. He gave recognition of the fact that Felix had been ruled of this people long before he was born. He held the hula and war of the Jews were familiar to him; he then in a dignified manner assumes that Felix will have a foundation based on the facts of the case. 2. The Charge of Sedition Dented (v. 14). 3. He and scornfully denied this charge, showing its utter falsity since the time was too short, it being but two days since he went to Jerusalem as a prisoner of the Romans. The Charge of Heresy (vv. 14-15). This he met by a concession and a denial. He admitted that he was of the "way" which they called herhey, and he matched. He showed clearly that his actions were in keeping with the Hebrew norms. (1) He worshiped the same God (v. 14). (2) He fully believed in the same Scriptures (v. 14). (3) He had the same hope of a coming resurrection of the dead (vv. 17). He declared that he had an the principle of a conscience void of before and man and the fear of the feast. (4) He did not come up unhappy and had brought alms for his nation (vv. 17). (3) That there were not competent when present to testify of his behavior. (4) By challenging his enemies to tectility as to his conduct in the council, 111, *Felix Trembles Before Paul* (v. 22-27). (5) A sort of a letter to the trial. Wicked as Felix was, Paul's manner somehow won his favor, though he did not remember him. He kept him from being kept him free from his ennies while under Roman protection. Felix sent for Paul that he might hear of righteousness, and that he might self arrest before these sinners in high life. He reasoned of righteousness.

HOUSTON, TEXAS, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 21, 1925 EDUCATION VERSUS LEGISLATION. Our country is experiencing, and has been for the past few years, a wave of crime that seems to be sweeping and enveloping the nation from one end to the other. No racial group appears to be exempt from this awful attack of criminality! The dwellers in mansions, with apparently all the culture and refinement; the pauper, eating out a miserable existence; the poor, living in a deprived and incompetent to the baneful infinities of this dreadful national malaise. The columns of the newspapers of the country are daily filled with news items about crimes which would disgrace the most savage tribe in darkest Africa! The news of the crimes, as in the case of the California young woman who slew her mother some months ago; husbands and wives are destroying their mates; fathers taking the life of their daughters, and robbery of banks has come to be as common as the proverbial pig tracks. The criminals, the constant stream of legislation, against crime and the criminal, flowing from the legal fountain established in the capital of every state in the union. Our country is experiencing, and has been for the past few years, a wave of crime that seems to be sweeping and enveloping the nation from one end to the other. No racial group appears to be exempt from this awful attack of crime, and it appears, with apparently all the culture and refinement; the pauper, elking out a miserable existence in the bowels of our cities, are equally susceptible to the harmful influences of this dreadful national malady. The columns of the newspapers of the country are daily filled with news items about crimes which disgrace the most savage tribe in darkest Africa! The young women who neither mother some months ago; husbands and wives are destroying their mates; fathering the life of their daughters, and robbery of banks has come to be as common as the proverbial pig tracks. All this in the face of a constant stream of legislation, against crime and the criminal, flowing from the legal fountain established in the capital of every state in the union. If the more criminals appear that the more laws issued, the more criminals are produced. Where and what is the trouble? Are the American people rapidly retrographing—slipping from that high pinnacle of civilization which has heretofore characterized them as being the leaders of thought and a people possessed of high ideals? Are they the leaders that have the ability with a case of TOO MUCH LEGISLATION and TOO LITTLE EDUCATION. There never was a time in the history of man when men could be made good by laws. Man never can be legislated into respecting the right of his fellowman: a love of right must emanate from the innermost recesses of the heart. The Wise Teacher of Nazareth right that the greatest commander appoints his neighbor as thyself. This love cannot be acquired nor secured by legislation but must come through years and years of education. Our country is spending huge sums each year for the enforcement of laws passed by both national and state legislatures; vast sums are expended in maintaining courts, asylums and penal institutions, which for the good accomplished, might as well be expended in the enforcement of laws. What our country needs is the rightful expenditure of more money for the education of its citizenry. And by education we do not mean the training for making a living, but the true education which seeks to fit a man for right living; which fits him for the duties of citizenship; which trains him to respect the rights of man, and to know where his rights and the rights of others begin. Such an education can not be secured through the mere training of the head and hands but must reach down deep into the spiritual and moral life of the individual. Our candid opinion is that these United States will never be rescued from the awful grip of this frightful crime wave until we educate more and legislate less. Where and what is the trouble?

LESSON FROM THE RHINELANDER FIASCO This racial superiority doctrine has, apparently, been hit a solar plexus blow in the celebrated Rhineland case, now engrossing the nation's attention at White Plares, N. Y. Leonard Kip Rhinelander, scion of one of New York's leading and most aristocratic white families, is seeking the annulment of his marriage to Miss Alice Beatrice Jones, dashing and charming in a white dress, and she deceived him into the bymenical knot, posing as a white girl. Testimony already adduced at the trial has shown that young Rhinelander knew his spouse was a member of the "colored" race before their marriage; that he frequently visited her home, where she lived with her "colored" parents; that he was chummy with his wife, who was "colored" and that he spent many nights in the Jones home in New Rochelle, N. Y. In admitting through her attorney that she was and is a member of the "colored" race, Mrs. Rhinelander threw a veritable bombshell in the legal camp of her husband, and caused his counsel to shift to another line of attack: trying to prove that young Kip was a "colored" person, and by her amorous appeals and pleadings; that Kip is mentally deficient and was easily tricked into marriage by his "colored" wife. This racial superiority doctrine has, apparently, been hit a solar plexus blow in the celebrated Rhinelander case, now engrossing the nation's attention at White Plains, N. Y. Leonard Kip Rhinelander, seion of one of New York's leading and most aristocratic white families, is seeking the annulment of his many grafted life after being dashing and charming dressed dalm, on the grounds that she deserved him into the hymenal knot, posing as a white girl. Testimony already adduced at the trial has shown that young Rhinelander knew his spouse was a member of the "colored" race before their marriage; that he frequently visited her home, where she lived with her "colored" parents; that he was chummy with many grafted life alterations by devoted "white" men many nights in the Jones home in New Rochelle, N. Y. In admitting her attorney that she was and is a member of the "colored" race, Mrs. Rhinelander threw a veritable bomb-shell in the legal camp of her husband, and caused his counsel to shift to another line of attack: trying to prove that young Kip was a slave to Alice and was captivated and bewitched by her amorous appeals and pleadings; that Kip is mentally deficient and has been deprived of his rights. Some of the testimony is very unsavory, but thus far it seems that the "colored" girl, an eastwhile laundress and maid, has dem- The Houston Informer South's Greatest Weekly Newspaper onstrated her superiority over the white boy, a college student and offspring of one of the Empire State's wealthiest and most aristocratic families. This game of "passing for white," if Mrs. Rhinelander ever did do one such thing, is certainly being worked over by a large number of students. Ms. Neesen is standing in the North East South; and things are getting so "balled and massed up" that it is quite difficult for an expert ethnologist to draw the line or differentiate between members of the "colored" and white races. This paper does not essay to sit in judgment on this case, but when it is sifted down to its final analysis and stripped of all sentiment and prejudice, it really becomes ridiculous and ludicrous, and shows the utter folly and nonsense of all this bumble about racial superiority and racial inferiority per se. One very nice sweet trial was not of prosperity or having too much ```markdown ``` INFORMER PRESS DAY CHANGED NEXT WEEK Owing to the fact that the regular press day of The Houston Informer falls on Thursday (Thanksgiving Day), November 26, 1925, this paper will go to press next Wednesday, November 25, and papers will be made available on Thursday.

This game of "passing for white" if the woman, Rhinelander ever did something, is certainly worked overtime by a large colony of "light-colored" Negroes in this country, both North and South; and things are getting so "balled and missed up" that it is quite difficult for an expert ethnologist to draw the line or differentiate between members of the "colored" and white races. This paper does not essay to sit in judgment on this case, but when it is sitted down to its final analysis and stripped of all sentiments, the woman is clearly more important. It shows the utter folly and nonsense of all this buncombe about racial superiority and racial inferiority per se. CAPITALIZING THE WORD "NEGRO." (By William Pickens for the Associated Negro Press.) Editor's Note: The Intercultural Committee in Indianapolis, Indiana, asked the daily papers to capitalize the word "Negro." In accord with grammar and common sense, and the newspapers after listening to the oral statements asked the committee to present a brief to all the papers, so as to bring the William Pickens happen to reach Indianapolis for a day or so at this time, and the intercultural subcommittee, which had been appointed to get up to date with the newspapers, wrote a brief as a particular one for Following is the brief which he presented: It was a custom growing out of American slavery to write the word Negro with a small "n" (negro). That custom had at least a semblance of reason in slavery days, but even that semblance was not always evident. In some of the very old English books, and books beyond the influence of the customs of slavery, the word Negro was capitalized ages ago. Of course the word was originally a common adjective in Spanish, derived from the word "niger." Latin adjective meaning "naughty," and English adjective meaning "naughty race or group." When a noun denotes the name of a particular person, group or institution, it is a proper noun, and should be capitalized. To say that the word Negro should not be capitalized simply because it is derived from a common adjective which was used in the past. The word Negro is a particular race or group, as to say that when a man's name is Baker, Shoemaker, or Smith, the name should be written with lower case letters (baker, shoemaker, or smith), simply because those words in fact were derived from the common nouns, and denoted in their beginning the trade or occupation of people, a particular person or a proper noun a particular group of persons or things.—"Sirius" and "Dog Star." It is manifestly indefensible when an American newspaper puts it this way in a news column: "The inhabitants of this town are 5,000 Caucasians, 32 Mongolians, 3 Indians, and 652 negroes." If the word Negro is a common noun, it is by no means co-ordinate with "Caucasian, Mongolian, and Indian." If the word Negro is a certain noun, it is clearly white people and Mongolians, and not capitalize "white." Yes, and that is because "white" is not exactly co-ordinate with "Mongolian." "White" is simply a descriptive adjective—not a racial name, but an inaccurate racial description. There may be some brown "white" people, and there are certainly white "Mongolians." And in the accepted meaning of "Negro in America, there are certainly white people, and there are certainly white people of people, a race. We do not, of course, capitalize "blacks," nor should we capitalize "colored." These descriptives—"white, black colored," are co-colored, simply descriptive adjectives—more or less inexply applied, of course. But while "white" is co-ordinate with "black or colored or brown or yellow," still "white" is not coordinate with Negro. The word Caucasian is co-ordinate with the word Negro or the word Mongolian. It is sometimes use other words more narrowly designate of race, Celtic, Gallic, Slav,—and we capitalize these words, as we should. The word Negro was capitalized before slavery, but it looked inconsistent for a slave-owner to advertise for sale: "six plows, 3 mules, 2 cows, 6 bales of cotton, and 10 Negroes," capitalizing only the last. It looked bad to capitalize the name of a more chatel. That was the original motive, almost instinctively expressed, behind the custom that made out Negro to be a common noun. The word negro was not used in the name of the cacao, and had been offered for sale among cattle and sheep and garden produce, those words would have been written "chinese" and "arabs." To capitalize them in that association would have offended the sense. But today the word NEGRO is not only the designation of a RACE and a great particular group, but, if used as an adjective-substantive, it is not even correctly descriptive of that group, as most of them, in America at least, are not black by any means. In the United States at least the word is a capital designation. The University of Chicago Press, the National Library of other magazines, great dailies in some cities, and well-known publishers have ordered it as the title of the word "NY." This matter is of great interest. INFORMOGRAMS By S. B. Williams. The era of Americans are upon two court trials now in progress: one a criminal case in Detroit, Michigan, in which Dr. O. H. Sweet, his wife and mother, were prosecuted by the commensality of his murder, which grew out of an attack on Dr Sweet's home in an alleged attack on the doctor from a residence he and recently purchased in a artfully white house, famous or infamous Rhineland case. Kip Rhippenhauer is attempting to annul his marriage to Alice Beatrice Jones, the daughter of a colored ex-slave who didn't know that Alice was colored, and didn't know that she was the family of his wife, various and various occasions, when she was colored sister and brother-law. These two cases are attracting unusual attention; in the Sweet case, the trial was adjudicated by a jury will dispose of one of the fundamentals of American jurisprudence. In the other case we want to discover by what hostility the jury has between white and colored participants on the ground of race, the contracting party did not know the race, nor the ancestry, in the face of the fact that there is nothing on the state of race that would prevent the intermarriage of the races. We shall wait patiently to see what what one very noticeable thing about the Sweet trial was the unnumbered prospect of jurors, who either expressed themselves, bodily, of course, with Negroes to render a verdict based on race, or expressed commentary on the citizenship of a country that boasts of being the world democratic government of the world. This is Community Chest week, and the Negroes of Houston have an opportunity and shouting, but they believe their religion does not consist in angering and shouting, but they believe pure religion and undefiled is to visit the widows and orphans in their district, brother, beuy and sign on the dotted line. If you don't give until you are poor, you are too poor to comfort you to feel it. The question of the hour, taking from a staff correspondent of a local political organization, deep into the political mudsmith election will admit Negroes to the next democratic primary. Said correspondent deep into the political mudsmith election in which thousands of Negro public candidates have been vetted, for her honor, Miriam A. Ferguson, a Democratic candidate, will vote for her honor. Miriam A. Ferguson, a Democratic candidate, will say to the republicans, "We present which by supporting your candidates, will be bound to support your nominee in November." Will it "hit him, he has, and he will be," she is wondering whether the democratic will support a system of a white man's primary. We shall see, however, our guess is that Well, folks, here is a new one: A colored man whose truck a dog catcher's truck had caught a dog catcher's cat. The dog catcher's cat came to crawl into the cage of the dog block before being released by patrons. What next? Ye gods and little fish. However, the dog catcher came to the city and the city will repair the Neurov automobile. How times change!

We closed all the doors and windows to keep the odor in our neighborhood, but left the latch airing on the machine the use of Paris on second trip. Bishop James Cannon, Jr., who has made an exhaustive survey of "The Present State of Methodism of The United States," recently cently in an endeavor to render the plan of unification more palatable to "I have personally found it of great value to confer with Negro leaders on the issues in public and church schools, and on other questions pertaining to them not only eager to present and answer them, but also willing to accept advice and counsel, must be willing to answer them to whether I or my own people were fully realizing the great opportunity and meeting the needs of the many placed upon us for the many millions of people we serve. I can see no hint of "social equality" in the fact that the prosecution should confer with the white bishops shall confer with the white carriers concerning the betterment of the few."

Pittsburgh Courter: Word reaches us from Mississippi that a Louisiana mob burned a white girl by mistake the other night. It is the mulatto girl who has been consecrated with white men. They took a "white girl out for a drive," thinking the mulatto girl has never returned. The mulatto girl was seen the next day, and since, by members of the mob, and the save womens group, the wrong girl. The gold ring found among the ahesa was identified as the ring of a white girl who has been definitely identified as the girl burned by the This report gives one a cheerful look upon our American life.

Could she "confrontate white men" if they did not prefer her company?
