Colored America Made Wonderful Strides Last Year In Many Respects
SEGREGATION
For the time being, segregation, in its multifaceted, ramifications, has been the greatest fight of colored America. Born of the South, segregation has grown into a powerful football in every section of the United States. The White South has so indulged itself in such practice that, in that section, it has become such a fixed practice that it is very difficult to protest, but certainly not without silent indignation of those who know the injustices, and are by force of handicaps and hardships of it! The handicaps and hardships of the Negroes. Some who have benefited by some forms of segregation, and such segregation, and such of them as have come North with the segregation and another, sought to bring ideas of segregation into communities where, and another, sought to bring ideas of segregation has been especially true in the matter of schools, where some have contended for them "because it will give more to the South," and while there are many others from the South, however, who have brought segregation into communities where and while they endured conditions of segregation in the South, they stoutly contended for North. The white southerner, president in his contensions until death, continues to unquestionably believe in the effect of segregation and brings with him a propaganda of determination that a unquestionable belief in the effect of segregation
There are two ways proposed that some benefit at this time. All of the buildings that may be torn down, and upon upon upon it, may be done being
HOUSING
COMMERCE AND INDUSTRY
Colored America has forged ahead many years working from 1925. Favored programs include the country. The number of failures have been fewer than heretofore, and the country has created an en-purpose program. This includes no-departure, local and other programs.
POLITICAL
ships and new corporations have been formed, that promise splendid results for the future. In some places three years ago a cooperative, hiring, with good results,
IN THE HIGHER ARTS
Along the lines of music and literature, in particular, and too, in painting, sculpture and other art, colored paintings are progressing in that is beginning to get the general understanding of the important organizations are fortunate in developing the means to award those of the highest achievement in various forms of art, a fine spirit of competition, but is bringing to the attention of the general public more or less in being more or less in obscurity. Aided by the inspiration of success, many of the development and usefulness. "Negro spirituals" have taken a place, in the field of American music, both within and without the race, in the field of both races have selections of Negro spirituals, or of many of them have composers, who have caught a quality of soul expression than few can equal, and in many very appreciative may well merit a place in the sun along the lines of music development, and in what is very appreciative
RELIGION
Colored America continues to be rural and is often taking the form of community services centers; continues to believe in prayer and faith with experienced members of the attitude of white Christians, there has been deprivation of the Negroes, that furnishes rather biting and wretful comments on the value of the people of people believe in the teachings of mass of people believe in the teachings of the cause is one of the most dependable traits of the race.
ATHLETIC. OUTDOOR LIFE
Colored America takes to athletics and outdoor life. In all of the various outdoor games football, baseball, tennis, golf, and basketball, many who are worthy of to produce many who are worthy of who are quietly at work hoping for the time to come when all entries in the games are accepted on merit, but this time has not yet arrived. It may however, be easier to arrive, or more accepted on merit, than are men who love hunting, rowing, hiking, and the call of the great outdoors. In both conditions, both conditions and there is hope that thousands in the congested cities 'may more and more become interested in God's great outdoors.
CRIME
DEATHS
There have been many deaths of well known and useful people. There have been many deaths of Charles Stewart of Chicago, who years formed a helpful link between the race and the civil war, who was founder and president of the first old life insurance company, outcome Lincoln Johnson of Atlanta and Washington, who held unusual and unique political field among publicans.

Happy New Year!
Wapalong
OVER the sunlit hills of time
The New Year comes on joyful
Out of the night the sweet bells cushion
Music of hope and promises sweet.
Into the dead past with our dead
Lay we the old, old age away.
We leave the past behind.
Each well beloved yesterday.
All all are in the yeasen hands;
What once we our now in thine.
We leave the past behind.
O blot it with they love divine.
Remember not the petty sins
That marred our troubled yesterday's
And lead us on by far away.
And hold the dream before our eyes
Enviated clear and sweet,
A star to our ogrits a feast!
We leave the past behind.

"But, mother, you never whined. You always said things jokingly." You always said I was rebeling and complaining; then, last week, your father came and told me I was indeed—I thought it a good many things in those hours we were fighting his way back. Two days later, son, you were telling me that some kind of accident in which many lose their lives. I've done a lot more thinking the last few days. I am blessed with my loving husband and equally loved son, and mother is still loving you. I am blessed with usual battering气, "I complain no more of everyday trials."

Together with assets we have prosperity. We have a reputation of having the reserve fund equal to the highest and best organizations of our kind. Our highest pledge is secure protection and we relatably carry it, then sit. Our business methods of operation are in keeping with sound business policy, eliminating every defect designed to lesson confidence. We take great pride in our mammoth reserve only because it supplies the means whereby our pledge to policy-holders is rewarded and the security of the Order effectively carried out. In this light it is a worthy motive of thanksgiving.
Any man or woman thinking of increasing his internal insurance should think first of the ability of our insurance company to fraternity that is not isolated solvent, having both reserve and other funds in proportion to its membership, should be considered.
The Odd Fellows of Texas, in so far as these things are concerned, invite the careful inspection of every Texas insurance company to have fraternity insurance. Read! Think about it! Let us look at amounts of the assets and resources come home to you and then decide that it is the fraternity that you need to protect you.

These figures represent the work through a number of years of men who have been training in the handling of large sums of money and in the laying of plans that look toward the safe and safe investment of the surplus funds of the thousands of members of the Order.
Here is indicated the wealth of the Odd Fellows of Texas. It is in access of half a million of dollars. Real money for any concern and an amount that is scarcely ever heard of by the organizations of our country for the past fifty years. Certainly that huge sum is evidence of an integrity and business ability on the part of the governing heads of that Order that guaranteed to you safety, security and competent service.
Here is an organization that has a reputation for solvency that dates back for nearly as many years as it is old. Its officers are of the highest type. Its holdings in cash and real estate make its promises to pay as good as that of the highest rated ratenor to be found anywhere. What more can a prospective policyholder want in addition?
It is now in the midst of a drive for new members an dthe cost of connecting with it is less now than it will be later.

HOUSTON, TEXAS, SATURDAY, JANUARY 2, 1926
SOME OF OUR WISHES FOR THE NEW YEAR!
The Informer herewith submits some of its wishes for 1928, viz:
That President Coolidge will make performance paramount to preachments, and that racial segregation will be abolished in the various governmental departments at Washington, D. C.;
That Dr. Ossian H. Sweet and his ten other co-defendants will win a sweeping victory in their new trial at Detroit, Mich.
That the Supreme Court of the United States will settle once for all the inquisitive residential segregation nuisance in the Washington D. C. cause and that the "white man's primary," as operated in Texas under a late act of the legislature, will be knocked out of the city. That the House will use the Judge Lynch's circuit will not have such a profitable season, and that the Lone Star State will have her slate as clean in 1926 as in 1925;
That the celebrated tenor, Roland Hayes, can appear in concert in Houston and other Texas cities during his 1926-27 season;
That the city mayor and the mayor board will add about five more colored men to Houston's police force;
That the city fathers of Houston will gravel and fix up several of the streets in colored residential sections;
That Emancipation Park will cease to be the orphan of the museum;
That the park board will not permit carnival shows to use the grounds with their shows and concessions, and thereby destroy and trample down all the beautiful flowers and shrubbery the women of our race have planted at our park;
That the Houston entry in the Texas league will win the flag and axe it;
That Dallas will play second fiddle to Houston again in building activities and permits for the year;
That the Ancient Order of Pilgrims will get their temple under way and completed at West Dallas and Bagby; That Antioch Baptist Church will erect a magnificent house of worship at West Dallas and Frederick;
That Bethel Baptist Church will complete the second and final unit to their temple of worship at Andrews and Crosby;
That the colored agencies will share more liberally out of the 1926 Community Chest;
That the board of education of the Houston Independent School District will get its building program under way at once, especially in the school district that has been designated for Parent-Teacher Associations will be organized at all of the colored schools in the city;
That the Houston Electric Company will decide that all colored citizens are in the servant class and therefore entitled to ride, go to the school, and be employed by this company as intrinsic city modes of transportation;
That the Houston Post-Dispatch will stop all allowing to colored people as "darkies" in the columns of its daily newspaper, and that its official announcer at radio station, KPRC, will do likewise;
That the Inter-Racial Committee will be able to accomplish more during 1926 for racial amity, goodwill and concord;
That all the dens, dives and "joints," where so many of our young men while away their time and money gambling and engaging in games of chance, will be padlocked and the keys to same thrown away for keeps;
That the community largely large colony of idlers, sons of rest and conscientious objects to honest and honorable toil will get jobs and become producers and assets to society;
That the railroads of Texas will provide better accommodations for colored passengers, or stop charging said passengers first-class;
That the colored business and professional men of Houston will revive the business league or commercial club;
That our people in this city will take as much interest in worthwhile affairs as they do in foolishness and nonsensical things; that a spirit of team-work, co-operation and group action will be more manifest among our people in Houston than ever before in the city's history, resulting in the launching of additional business enterprises and the strengthening of those already in existence;

For their annual Christmas offering, the choir of Antioch Baptist Church gave a rendition of Handels' "Missina" last Sunday evening, beginning with a giveaway of Handels' "Missina" last Sunday evening, beginning with the direction of Mrs. M. W. D. Sledge. Despite the cold blizzard which covered the stage, the audience, of which quite a few musicians were filled with a large and appreciative audience, of which quite a few musicians were playing by the music leavers, of whom there were quite a number of present, were uninterrupted by the singing by the chorus, while the solos by Michael and Massailee J. George and Birdie Whiteide were highly complaining and very difficult selections. The musical accompaniment by Mrs. George and Birdie Whiteide was one of the most pleasing features of the evening, and came in the organ of Daniel Fremedle L. Kemp and M. W. D.

NEW MOUNT PILGRIM
Rev. W. H. Rhodes, Pastor
Sunday school was good. Wunday children were out to get their Christmas gifts, but we were told with what Santa Claus left them. A wonderful address to the school. After remarks by Pastor Rhodes, the superintendent introduced Freeman Crawford, who spoke some encouraging remarks to the children. We enjoyed his short speech. We had great preparation for 1925; also the church is large in planning some big events.

INFORMOGRAMS
As we approach the end of the old year, and hear the humming of the old tree, we look back over the past twelve months, and we mark on us are like the pastor of a Sunday, we find ourselves "wrapped in the balances and found wanting." For "wanting" - "hiding in as many places as possible" - "hiding with living; hiding in uselflessness." Nevertheless and "howmewonder," a new year is upon us and new challenges arise. Errors or sins have been in 1928, when 1865 hum with good deeds. Good deeds are things that make a fair beginning, but resolutions are like good intentions after an unfavorable region. We reflect a retrospective view of old 1925, we are brought face to face with the lines of a poem. "It's not the earth that leaves us, but which leaves us undone, which brings a bit of heartache, at the setting of the sun." On New Year's Eve night.
