SATURDAY, JANUARY 2, 1926 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.

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!

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.

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.
