DENISON WELCOMES U.B.F.'S HOME EDITION When we are whipped and locked in a fair fight, we have no allies not when men will openly and brazenly deny the written statutes of the comedy when men will openly and brazenly about their procedure and maliciously micropresent the situation (shoot the audience) and no excuse to offer for failing to win in a disadvantaged fight. When we be whipped in a political fight and being tricked out of one's constitutional rights. Mob law in politics is a form of government, and men who resort to such tricks, schemes and unfairly unfit to be trusted with any office of trust, honor or emolence, we do not we intend to sit supinely by and permit a gang of political citizens our family and race of our last vestige of women is indebted to the many citizens for their support, and it seems quite unreasonable and evil to continually resort to the courts for legal redress from such wrongs and evils; we are stunned with roses and "eternal vigilance" (continually staying on the court) and finally, friends and comrades: "The fight is on, but be not weary, Be strong and in His Might hold on." If God be for us, his banner or song is. We will sing the victor's song at CLEANING UP SAN FELIPE! Residents along San Felipe (West Dallas) Street are quite elated with the wonderful transformation wrought on said thoroughfare since the two colored patrolmen, Edward L. Jordan and William Stevenson, have been assigned to that beat. These two officers, whose addition to the local police department created quite a furious some weeks ago, have declared war on the vagrants, gamblers and bolsterous lotterers in this section of the Fourth Ward, and some aver that they (the two race officers) have converted San Felipe Street into a modern Sunday school. Well, both of these colored officers are active church workers and saw active service in the World War. Mr. Jordan is a steward in Mt. Vernon Methodist Episcopal Church, and Mr. Stevenson is superintendent of the Sloan Memorial Methodist Episcopal Sunday School, as well as an officer in said church. They know their duties as officers, and have thus far reflected credit both upon their uniforms and their race, and deserve distinguished service medals for what they have accomplished in the reformation of San Felipe during their nightly beats. However, business men and residents on this street declare that as soon as these two colored patrolmen complete their beat at 11 p. m., the San Felipe "rats" begin to dart from their holes in quest of first one thing and then another. If we could land a few more colored patrolmen of this type, it will not be THE HOUSTON INFORMER C. H. McGRUDER, Grand Secretary DR. M. W. DOGAN HEADS COLLEGE ORGANIZATION HUNDREDS STUDY RACE RELATION AT BLUE RIDGE DR. M. W. DOGAN HUNDREDS STUDY HEADS COLLEGE RACE RELATIONS ORGANIZATION AT BLUE RIDGE Marshall, Texas—President M. W. Dogan, Wogan College, was elected the president of the Association of Neuro Colleges in Texas, due largely to the fact that he was so much to further its materializing. There are nine colleges: Jarvis, Viney, Paul Quinn, Mary Alen, Gandupee, Bibhop, and Wiley, already members of the association, as to what would probably be some of the initial work of the organization of Dogan College, demands upon the attention of the association would run along the line of the organization's uniform standard of entrance requirements operative for the two colleges. He feels that at present there is too much variance, too great disparity, he says, it breeds unwelcome hostility to the lower general educational standard among these colleges. Moreover, he says, it breeds unwelcome hostility to the lower general educational education, it gives the idea that there is a line of loss徙 of energy necessary to be expended so sought by so many who go to college; and consequently they seek this line, which goes from one college to another. He deplored the possibility of the educational movement resolving its problems of more important things—qualities themselves are concerned, for more numbers, ignoring or neglecting them, for more important things—qualities steadily stood for high standards as is evidenced by the marvelous growth of the university, which has presided for thirty years has attained and the superior rank which has undergone leading colleges of the country. - LEAVES FOR VACATION. Dr. P. P. Stone, one of our leading physician, left this week for a period of time to attend a conference in the leading hospitals in North and Central Texas. The doctor plans to do two things in his former hospital located in his former home. He was accompanied by his entire family, the trip being made overland in their Cadillac. long before a permanent reformation will be affected along this and other routes, noisy streets frequented by the homeless will be the focus. We take this occasion to congratulate Mayor Holcomb and Chief Officer of the United States Office on Inter-Racial Co-operation, for the appointment of these two officers; and we also wish to compliment Officers Jordan and Stevenon for their success or failure as peace officers, will determine the future policy regarding colored police officers SUBJECT GIVEN: Prominent Place on Southern Conference Program Students Interestably AT BLUE RIDGE YEAR BLDGE, N. C.—This summer, and for several years past, the study of race relations has been a major feature held at the public conference, and the interlibrary message has reached thousands of people in positions Among the meeting so far held in which the subject has had a prominent place in the public conference. In all these there have been group discussions or platform addresses in students, in a powerful address that made a profound impression on the students of Hampton Institute and I. B. Roose of Shaw University were present by those were entertained by the conference for several days, making a very favorable impression of white students in attendance from all over the Southeast. At the Misericordia Conference, R. B. Eleser, director of the Commission on Interactive Co-operation, presented the number of discussion groups, as he did also at the Y. W. C. A. Industrial Conference. It is generally admitted that one of the most hopeful recent trends in the teaching of college students is manifolding in this subject, as indicated by the fact that many of the institutions are conducted in principal southern colleges, in addition to colleges and discussion groups. Interracial speakers, white and colored, are also given发言, and the colleges and discussion platforms. The significance of this development is in the fact that many of today who are interesting themselves in this question will be the leaders WHITE HOUSE VALET ILL AT SUMMER CAMP (By The Associated Negro Press.)

N. Davis, pastor, Monday night. Though greeted, upon their arrival with a steady downpour of rain, the ardor and enthusiasm of the visitors were not dampened or chilled one bit; and by the early afternoon the smiling face of Sol had dissipated all clouds from the skies, and ideal summer weather prevailed. This met the hearty applause of the General, who said, "The great, strong, and strong, and the most excellent, and the most leagued, and the most leagued, and the most excellent, were the General, who, at the time, was a very good friend of the Marshall. The special U. B. F. and S. M. T. train included a Pullman sleeper, which accommodated a group of Houstonians. The Silver Tone U. B. F. Band of Houston received a big hand at Dallas and at all stops from Dallas to Denison. The Marshall band joined the delegation at Marshall, and there was music galore en route to the Gale City. A little away from the Houston band, and B. F. and S. M. T. were in the same position, and the General was in the same position as the visitors. Denison was an up阳县y awaiting the color, is not fooling the white man, arrival of the delegates and visitors. There are white people in Texas and the U. B. F. Band of Texas are the only people in Texas who are in the same position as the visitors. There are no white people in Texas and the U. B. F. Band of Texas are not the same. An audience that taxed the capacity of the spadals auditorium of the Hope well Baptist Church, erected under the "Big Wall" on the west side of the street, was a group of overflowed into the streets, heard H. W. S. Hibbard, mayor of Denison, and the General, who said, "The General, who is the chief and visitors to this city. The 'chieftain," are accustomed to the mass of the city. The chief and visitors are the General, who are also the mayor arose and shook Prof. Rhoa's hand. The General, who was introduced to the mission of the masonry school, and master of ceremonies, as "the mayor of all the postmen," he was the mayor of the General, and the mayor of the Negro race, as mayor of the best people in the best town in the world, was the General, who was the mayor of the world; stating that there is no racial segregation in Denison and the most amicable relations exist between two Mayor Hibbord was accorded a mighty ovation and he delivered a very timely welcome address. The mayor stated that education and organization will put any race on the same footing with a more favored and fortunate race, and recited briefly what Denison is doing for the public weal and welfare, and for the colored citizenry in particular. He referred to Prof. Wims as "Mister," and praised the Negro race for its progress during the past 60 years; stating that such a commendable record was without parallel in the history of the world. He stressed insurance both of the fraternal and straight life types, asserting that a life insurance policy was equivalent to that money in a strong, safe and sound bank. Rhoads Delivered Responses. In a masterly and scholarly effort, Prof. Joseph J. Rhoads, principal of the Booker T. Washington High School of Dallas and recently appointed deputy grand master to succeed the late B. F. White of Palestine, responded to the official welcome. His was a ringing speech and a recital of the history of the order in America. The learned educator declared that the U. B. F. and S. M. T. order is infinitely richer in history and service than in dollars and cents, though the order issues policies from $325 to $1075, with a cash loan, extended values, and paid-up features, etc., being the first Negro fraternity in Texas to make this departure in fraternal beneficiary circles. Prof. Rhoads said: "As a people we know too little about ourselves. We were somebody in Africa and we are somebody in America. The order of United Brothers of Friendship and Sisters of Mysterious Ten is responsible today for our racial heritage. We must think of Africa, not as a country with a dark past, but rather as a country with a bright future; and in the consummation of our highest ideals of world conquest, this order has played and must play an important part. We stand tonight on Mar's Hill at Denison and proclaim a gospel of liberty to all the people of Texas, and to give backbone to the weak-back Negroes who are satisfied with second place in a democratic social order. The Negro who says he is satisfied with Jim-crowism, discrimination, segregation, political prosecution, disfranchisement and other injustices and inequalities heaped upon us because of our A special train via the South and North Texas, arrived in day morning, bringing several to the 40th annual grand session and Sisters of the Mystery, though greeted, upon their arrival the ardor and enthusiasm of the billed one bit; and by the early dissipated all clouds from the hardened. This met the hearty visitors. M. T. train included a Pulman group of houstonians. The Silver received a big hand at Dallas and on the way to Houston, it was music galore en route to the sector of the Houston band, and rabail band. There were the white people in Texas ready to help us, if we will only help ourselves; and we need not expect our own brothers to strike a blow on our own freedom and liberty. Not only should the pulman be brothers in the sight of God, but they are brothers in the sight of man. At the conclusion of this address, the pulman to term "radical," "kitkiting," etc. the major aroos and proff. Prof. Wanda Women Win Laurela The welcome address on behalf of local temples was dated December 15, 2014, prepared ahead of the response to same was made by the president of the United States, electrified a huge audience with a brilliant oratorical effort, tracing the history of the temple in America, and calling upon the people to race and to practice the doctrine of love, and to follow the teachings of Jesus. Musical Selections Good. The musical numbers, both vocal and instrumental, by the senior choir of Hopewell Baptist Church, were well rendered and creditably executed, with Prof. Wims as director. The numbers by the female singers were exceptionally good, though the program was too top-heavy with music, and there was an utter absence of Negro selections or compositions. Grand Master Presented. Little Miss White Mae Pierce presented the gavel to Grand Master W. Bledie, who complained of the lack of time outside of the church and urged the parents to bring their children on the outside of the church and urged them to them and their race. He further stated that "this is one grand lodge and its recommendations for dancing or dancing of any kind." He presented its approval of this statement. Grand Princess Speaker. Mrs. Bledie, grand princess of the sisters of the Mysterious Ten, was presented and handed a big hand by the audience. Prior to the beginning of the public meeting, hands rendered an open air concert in front of the church, with Prof. J. H. Haywood and Dead Members Honored. Memorial exercises in honor of the sisters of the Palestine, and other deceased members of the church, were held Tuesday morning at president Houston College and grand chaplain of the order, conducted the service and delivered the memorial service. The educator stated that character is the only thing a person takes to the grave and to live a life of service and usefulness. Every appropriate music was performed for the occasion, including a tenor solo, "Jesus Christ," Jr. Port Worth, with Prof. Rohde, also a musical genus, at the piano. Laws Laws Lid Down. Grand Master Bledie, at the conclusion of the memorial exercises, recommended for laws and regulations. [Name] W. F.

Sanitarium at Marshall, Texas, where the order has already acquired the Norwood estate in the northwest-eastern part of the state. The grand master, the grounds being situated on a commanding eminence. It is planned to erect a $100,000 hospital on this historic East Texas site, where the sick, infirm and aged members of the oratory are present. The grand master, the treatment under the care of the race physicians and surgeons, manned in its entirety by a Negro personnel. He emphasized that he is trying to make a place for his race and not his family; further stating that Dr. G. G. Gathings, General, was for the head of the U. B. F. Sanitarium. Bledsoe Principal Speaker. night was delivered by Grand Master W. F. Bledsoe of Marshall, who spoke on "Race Fundamentals." He was heard and applauded by a capacity house; trading, in his address, the history of all races who have been a part of the race, and the guide book of life. Mr. Bledsoe is also national grand master of the purely racial order. In his remarks the grand master said: There are three institutions that undele the possibilities of all race and civilized developments. The first is the college, which instills confidence, race loyalty, history achievement, nobility, and grandeur in mother and father. The second is the mother and the father must teach the noble strains of their forebears, the victories of their triumphs, the achievements, their trials, their struggles, their victories and triumphs. It omitted in the school of home education the great firefighters teachers and the children are the school, with object to the great firefighters' scriptures, it will never be taught elsewhere. The second institution is the school. If in our schools we are taught the nobility, the wonder, the greatness, the supremacy, control, the power, the world over, in the past and present, with their founders and histories of the group, being denied record and a right to be heard, should be seen and understood, serve as a means of educating us away from race fundamentals and the group, being removed from the possibilities of ardent desires of education us. This educational movement of our nation has far removed from the possibilities of ardent desires of education us. PRICE: 5 CENTS B. F.'S is seriously affecting the organising powers of our group, which must function our new day program: The lack of racial cooperation is due to the lack of past objectives around which we can associate our memories, and view with hope and inspiration, the work of our fathers of the past. "It is said of the Japanese educational system that during the four years of college life in their universities, the students are carried to the cemeteries weekly, and there have historic and inspirational ancestral programs. The deeds and characters and founders of the nobility of the Japanese group, are studied. The epitaps on their monuments are read and analyzed. The histories of their lives and careers are made a part of the Japanese life and character. Their illustrious works become a part of their philosophy. So, when the Japanese student has graduated from the courses in the universities as laid down in his textbooks, he has also graduated from the course in race fundamentals, that have prepared him to rather be a Japanese than any other living creature on God's green earth; and so, because of that education, the Japanese is accepted today, the most powerful and wonderful little beehive group in the world. "And the same is true for all the educated groups of the world and of the American white man's institutions; but alas! be it said of our group, even in America, our ancestry and the history of our great culture, our sainted Attention past. Even our sainted Attention has been denied a place in the records of our historic America, that they shed their blood to redeem. Our revolutionary war, 1812, 1861 veterans, have never been able to tell their story in American literature and history of our great culture, and the history of our great world, and remains our real duty with us, and remains our real duty with us. The world in thunder-tones, the story of our past, present, and future." "The, third institution is the church. The Negro church is the only institution in America that has the full opportunity to preach, unintended and unlimited, the fatherhood of God, and the great cause of the world. The world is a man who has needed a brother, to preach brotherhood. And through the centuries of oppression and darkness, being piloted by the Negro minister who had to feel his own way at times, the Negro has been led in the church to the point where he can be a man and a woman, and he is an ecclesiastic heritage, he holds to be the principal to all men are brethren." "The oppressed peoples of the world can find a voice for the wrongs today only from the Negro pulpit, that is unbossed by white millionaires, unbought by dishonest capitalists, undicated to by potentates and their accomplices. The poor Negro preacher, supported by poor Negro parishioners, is never to pay any money to the people before his congregation and preach his convictions on all matters of social import, without fear or favor. He makes his bread from the men of the soil and toll, he is up from the soil himself, and he can voice the wrongs of the men of all races that suffer, and the poor Negro preacher, supported by poor Negro parishioners, is never to pay any money to the people before his convictions on all matters of social import, without fear or favor." The American white man who has suffered many problems yet before there The Negro church shall stand, when the world shall almost be dead, and the world shall almost be the world, of the world, as the champion of justice to mankind that is applaused, as the voice of the underdogs of every race, and the leader of right regards of who is involved, as the exposer of wickedness. The Negro church has brought us to where we are today. It is our one great hope still for the promotion of the Negro church, and for drift from it, but we must drift if we (Continued on Page 8).

Joe Bush, veteran pitcher, was given his unconditional release by the Washington Belleville Wallace, the great shortest of ages ago, now coaching the Chicago Cubs. Who rememberes when Amos Shrimp used to play the outfield for a different team each spring? Charley Ross could not have been much harder to find if he had been a good second baseman. Walt Klimchner, utility infielder of the Philadelphia Nationals, was given his unconditional release. Women are now admitted to all of the Los Angeles baseball club held at Wrigley Field. "Yes," remarked the fleet shortest as he dashed out into left after the high fly, "that's me all over." John Clancy, first sacker, now with Little Rock in the Southern, will be recalled by the Bots at the end of the Frankie Camilli, who made quite a reputation as a heavyweight boxer, has shortened by San Francisco. **Grace Jandonne, right-hand pitcher, has been obtained by the Milwaukee club of the American association from the St. Louis club of the American association.** **Courtney Tucker, right-hand baseball players cannot eat excessively at their club's expense. Members of the New York Giants are allowed only $4 per meal for meals.** **Pitcher Alex Ferguson; a right-hander, has been sent by the Washington team to play in the International in exchange for Outfielder Danny Taylor.** **George (Duffy) Lewis, former star outfielder for the Boston Red Sox and the New York Giants, played in the outfielder with the Jersey City club of the International league.** **Emily Bigney, Tier catcatch, but now shortstopting for the lovely Red Sox, is playing in the brittle game and the position in an acceptable manner.** "Bruno" Betzel, who plays second base for the Lousville club, is named after six uclues who are all Methichels. Betzel is also named Christian Alfred Fred John Henry William Betzel.

When he played the hero role for many years. ed to draw the plains of the afoe, but not Huggin's. The attitude of sports fans is that the Yankees were victorious in spite of Huggin rather than because of him. The team's debacle to confirm the impression that the Yankees as a team depended wholly upon the success of the baugh-leader could make more of a success than Huggin. Ruppert Hans-Indefence, a former baugh-leader, is better, another year. Colonel Ruppert, the general owner of the Yankees, always has had the confidence that this condition appears well placed. A great deal of the 1926 success of the Yankees certainly must be held for the great slugger the New Yorkers have a powerful team and one wonder if Huggin shouldn't receive some No Weak Pitchers Ever It is not often to shop Debery. It pleads for more work. He may ask for more money, more food, more rest and surprise one no one, but the other day he came to the store with a very witty catcher of the Brooklyn team, came forth with the statement "Last year I caught about fifty games" he said. "Thirty-two of those find the best men on the other club and when Das pitcher can you always find the best men on the other club you can win." So some of the easy cases. To bat against the best pitchers in the league, it then a chance once in a while to win some of the easy cases. He has a Hanky's arm, but the form summed that he will continue to catch when Vance is in the box, for Vance and Debery are in the box, for ham and agas and salt pepper. Athletics Favorites in Betting on Wall Street The New York Giants and Philadelphia athletics have been installed favored by the league, leagues penchant races by Wall street. One firm of betting commissioners reported general wagers at odds of 9 to 1 against the chances of these two teams. The world's champion Pittsburgh Pirates won American league title-holders, ruled second choices in the wagers placed by the same firm. The odds were 9 to 6. The Yankees were quoted at 24% to 1 in the wagering, which was said to on an unusually heavy scale with $10,000 placed by one firm alone. Blake Gagne Fine Pitcher Blake, more popularly known as the "quaffit" has been pitching fine bat for the Chicago Cubs this season, and there is every reason to believe that he will soon be regarded as one of the stars of the National league.

Clark Griffin, in the course of a talk on fast ball pitching, made the claim that he never at any time had the speed of Johnson. He went further and described dozen pitches with more speed than the old-time Giant. "There is a general but wrong belief that Rusty Johnson can win a dozen pitches with more speed than fast, he was fast, all right, speed and fast, and his a Joe to compete with Johnson with a curve ball ever pitched and the best curve ball ever pitched and the best curve, but his curve was as swift as his speed and then he pitched an impression of his having much speed. "He got so he had great control of the pitch and then he pitched a pitcher. I've seen him at three and nothing, then hook three fast one over. As a speedy pitcher, however, he never pitched a fast one and Danny Donovan, Joe Wood, Erne Crane or Danny Vance, he was the fastest of them all, and the next fastest was him Dino.

INTERMEDIATE AND NENOR TOP-How a Nation of Nabites was Set TO YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOP-How the Nabites learned the Israelite circumstances (v. 1-12). 1. Going out of the land of the Egyptians. 2. The south stroke from the strong hand of the Almighty made Pharaoh willing to let go the Israelites. 3. The Israelites promised the promised land with a high hand. Through the land of the Philistines the Philistine short, but God commanded them to turn from that land went along the land of the Philistines they would come to Egypt. The way of the wilderness was a longer route, but it had many valueless consequences, they escaped the experiences of war which would have come to them at the end of the war, they learned the crookedness and perversity of their own hearts (Deut. 8:12). At the Lord's direction they turned from their first course and were made to face a great difficulty. The Red sea was before them and mountains on either side. However, they should have been encouraged because the Lord went before them by day in a pillar of cloud to lead them the way and by night in a pillar of fire to give them light. He took not away the pillar of cloud by day, nor the pillar of fire by night (13:21, 22). 3. Pursued by Pharaob (vv. 4-12). The stricken Egyptians had now recovered from their sorrow, and percelving the straitened circumstances of the Israelites they interpreted this to mean that Moses was unable to lead them out of their difficulty. Therefore they went in pursuit, hoping yet to prevent them from leaving the country. 11. The Miraculous Escape of the Israelites (vv. 13-22). Though they were in a straitened condition they had no reason to fear, for the Lord had led them there. There seems to have been a twofold object in leading them into this particular place. 1. To strengthen the faith of the people. To be delivered from such circumstances, we saw the reality of the love and power of God. The people, as usual, displayed their unbelief and even denial of God. Moses replied, "Pear ree, not stand still and see the salvation of the Israelites is faith taking hold on God's promises. God said, 'Wherefore the children of Israel that they go forward.' The lifting of the rod of the仰牢 served as something tangible upon the ground, so that we were to go forward a step at a time without raising any question as to the power from the source force the command of the power to obey. The overthrow of the Babylonians. Those who will not hood the warning judgments of God may be allowed to remain in the presumption that the Amniash is helping them. The Overthrow of the Egyptians (ii. 29-27). Having seen the Israelites go across the seed dry shad, Pharaoh and his poor people thought they would be able to unbelief could follow in the wake of God's children. The Lord looked forth for them and thought they could be among the Egyptians. He not only looked upon them but took off their shoes and stood before them in realism that God was fighting against them. He then directed Moses to stretch forth the rod and bring defiance to the Egyptians. IV. The Song of Triumph (15:1-21). Standing on the other shore of the Red sea they could attigly lay down their hands in mercy and the overwhelming defeat of the Egyptians. Their conditiones and importance were left out. In a gliding dawn, a similar but much larger company will come and deliver the Red sea, addition, namely, the "Song of the Lamb." (Nev. 15:3). The Deep Well of Life.

A haw T WILL surprise many to learn that the art of falconry, or hawking, goes back to the remote and arid lands of the ancient world, and proofs of this in the froeces and sculptures of the early Egyptians and Persians. And in all the time that the art of falconry has never been a total lapse of the art; falconry has in every age been carried in on some part of the world. The art of falconry has not only of England, Holland, France, Italy, and Spain, but of China, Japan, and Europe, but the sport has been followed from ancient times in India and northern Africa. The ancient Greeks apparently knew nothing of falconry, but the Lombards, who were the most skilled of the art, and by 875 it had become a generally known practice in England. From that time it thrived, filling an important place in the life of the times. The falconry was given to falconry by the returning crusader, who had become familiar with the methods of the Orient and had brought with them a set of falconry weapons, lords never left their courts without their falconers and a cage of hawks, to be at something that might be The gun, of course, delivered a serious blow to the air, as it provided a means of getting meat. The real devotees were never greatly affected by this device, and through the centuries, up to the end of the French Revolution through the French Revolution on the continent, falconry survived the French Revolution, and the invention of dreams, the breaking up of the country into small holdings, the establishment of firearms, the other inevitable incident indicative of a multiplying and advancing population. It was a general practice, however, falconry in Europe ceased after the great fall of the falconry mentioned. Its main purpose was to contribute to large measure to half a dozen hawking clubs, among which are the Palmers' club, the High Aisle club, the Falcon Club, and the tributeable in large measure to half a dozen hawking clubs, among which are probably thirty or forty private establishments in England. There were probably thirty or forty private establishments in England, and made a heavy toll on both the personnel and the support of the sport. Trying it in America, there was the last twenty years that there been any attempt at amateur falconry among the English, and some rather successful attempts have been made in America, particularly in the United States. The great expense of maintaining the birds, due to the scarcity of exotic food, is the difficulty of forwarding so many a sport in the settled conditions of most of our eastern country have achieved any real success in America and the growing sentiment against killing any but a few species of game bird. We achieve any real deterrent. Still, there are several common birds which are recognized as game that would make admirable allies in the fight against the quail of our Atlantic states and the sharp-tailed grouse of the northern pearls. The native wild goathawk of the United States is the grouse of our northern wooded section. It is true that in training hawks to hunt, as in all other animal training, advantage is taken of the natural properties of the creature in its instinctive behavior. We glance that these vigorous and inprudible birds are taught to go almost directly against their instincts. First of all, the creature must set of creatures, they must be taught that man, instead of being their worst enemy, is really their best friend. Even if easy, if no mistakes are made. But any one of hundreds of possible errors may undo weeks of patient and careful training. Then, too, since different kinds of game must be hunted at different times, the same kinds of cover, either the same hawk must be trained first for one type of work and later for something entirely different, the same kinds of hawks must be used. Of the hundreds of kinds of hawks, only certain birds are certain to be needed for this purpose. beautiful and romantic sport. A hawk must be at once kind-and fierce; it must be able to stand the changes of climate of its owner's country; it must be strong enough and swift enough to overtake and strike down its quarry, and intelligent enough to be able to unlearn much of its native knowledge. These qualities are possessed by only about a dozen species, belonging to two groups or general-the true falcons, of the genus Falco, or long-winged hawks, and the short-winged group of forest hawks known as "Accipitans." Only two of the latter are used, the goshawk and the European sparrow hawk. The bird known in America as sparrow hawk is a small falcon which feeds principally on insects and is useless for hunting. Peregrine a Coamopolite. The peregrine is the only falcon proper found all over the world. There is no other bird with such a cosmopolitan range. It is found on both sides of the equator, throughout the entire world, nearly to the Arctic and Antarctic circles. It is natural, then, that this should be the falcon of falcons and known to all ages of man as a tractable and capable help in his search for food; for falconry was at first a very practical and even sordid pursuit, only later—much later—be coming the sport of the privileged classes. A peculiar set of traditions and an equally picturesque language have become inseparably attached to the art of falconry; and it is only fair to the Scotch, who, in their conservatism, have been responsible for the colorful language of golf, to give them credit for preserving the romantic terminology of falconry. It was in Scotland that the art was perpetuated after it had languished over most of Europe. Ancient history is eloquent with the influence of the noble sport of hawking, the history of medieval Europe is richly colored with it. Sixteenth and Seventeenth century literature,丰硕, also in past, concerning it, and the language of the day was to tincture with the jargon of the hawkers that it is fair to conclude that, before men had knowledge of gunpowder and the fowling piece, hawking was such a general practice as to be the principal means of obtaining wild game. Falcons are brought into subsection to mung will either be taken by being taken to fly or by being caught wild after they are fully grown and self-reproducing (eyes hawks) are the ones usually over most of Europe but they are more easily trained, but lack the dutch and style of the wild-caught birds of Africa, however, the eyes is virtually unknown, as the hawks are always The Valkenswaarde Market. In the heyday of the sport, emissions from the courts of each little duchy and principality gathered at Valkenswaarde after the trapping and bought for their masters the product of the season's catch. What a picturesque and lively scene these medieval auctions must have been, with knight bidding against knight for the beautiful birds that had been won out of the air and brought into the thralldom of man! The old cult of falcon catching and training has never completely languished at Valkenswaarde, and the family of Mollens has for many generations led in the industry. Indeed, wherever falconry is practiced the Mollens are known as the most skillful and expert trappers and trainers, and many of the most famous falcons in the history of the sport have come from their able hands. The peregrine, falcon of falcons, is not as large or as strong as other the gers or the sacre, but combines, with a hardbood unknown to the "exotics," all the quillties that go to make a good hawk—gentleness, teachability, courage, dash, willingness to "wait on" at a great height, and, most important of all, availability; for, as has been said, the peregrine has a world-wide range, and is therefore obtainable in almost any country where men want to use it. In a wild state, were it a common bird anywhere, it would be a very undesirable neighbor, for it preys almost everywhere. It takes such swift and resourceful game as plover, snake, and wild fowl. Its common name in America, the duck hawk, is well given, the referrer to wild ducks and not the tame bird. DO YOU APPRECIATE QUALITY SERVICE AND MODERN PRICES?

GALVESTON AND HARRIS COUNTIES SHOW THE WAY The Dallas Express: Are areas in Harris and Galveston counties are showing the rest of their follows the way to a victory.

OWN MONEY AND ARE DOING IT FOR THE GOOD WHICH THEY ARE REAP FROM THEIR EMPLOYMENT in the light of all of the past history of the participation of Negroes in the war, and is unusual. But it seems actuated by the proper spirit and it is being used in the war only for the not only of the rest of the members of the race but of all other races. And the truth of this statement is borne out by the fact that their cause is attracting within the state. Their fight will bear fruit in the strength of the masses who heretofore have felt that politics was not the issue, and that sentiment has found them. And the strength of the race within the past years during which their political fortunes have been growing has been the others on notice that is a militant spirit in existence among Negroes in the war. In many of many years ago, they by the promise of dollars but that they are actuated by the spirit of the war spired to have their rights in the political arena as are. The Express is highly attested at the maximum amount of money of Harris and Galveston counties. It wishes for them the maximum amount of money of Editor Richardson and that of the members of the race in Houston to move the movement to see him through. It is only unfortunate that such is not the case in every county. The defeat of the Crasger machine in Texas may spell political freedom for the state, but it remains in the republican party. It is most certainly true that the only candidate who has been seen for many days which Texas has seen for many days is Harry Wurzbach whose record in the race has been so good that it is possible that his group will place a candidate in the field in Dallas. We hope that the candidate will feel the choice has been made. The Express is for him and that he will come to the realization that the hope of Negro participation in the affairs of the party lies in defeat of the candidate. Another better one for it. And the record of Congressman Wurzbach is that he has built up the actions which he builds to build up. The actions of Galveston and Harris counties have been to build up the actions to follow. They have made political history of the sort that should be made in Texas.

A new school in the Seventeenth Ward; evening schools in the Ninth Ward and Algeria; either the removal of the public school or the put of the vice section around it; a new site for the senior high school; the immoral conditions prevailing around the present site; relief of the Thomas Lafon and its various issues. It further petitioned for more conditions and more playground space; abdomen of custom of adoration to the public school to the public normal school; use of teachers in high and normal school; use of incarcerate and mastery degrees. The requests and petitions from the Alliance are timely and much needed. The requests and shacks called anxious in a shame of the continuous use of old buildings and shacks called anxious in a shame of its educational goals. Now it the general attitude of the New Orleans teachers to the colorado people who want The poor, crowded conditions of the school, inadequate heating facilities, lack of playgrounds, no equipment except that furnished by their own efforts. Terrible environments as those conditions that surround McDonough 35, and the A. P. Williams School. There is not a real modernly equipped school in the system for colored pupils. The standard is far below that of any other schools of any state and far below those of surrounding towns or cities of its size. Too often the answers to the petitions comes from the school officials that they have no funds. In the face of these excuses, the school officials have put on a building program for the white schools for $500,000 and more, and every convenience and necessity is supplied. The large number of tax-paying citizens of New Orleans, who pay large taxes worth while mentioning are entitled to far more consideration than they receive from such officials. In answer to the petitions sent in the College School Alliance, the board has decided to plan in the normals will be limited to seventy pupils, thirty-five of which be required to attend high school and thirty-five from other accredited high schools of the state. Hereforeto the McDougall High school.

Our great problem as a race is bound up in a peculiar way with the problems of the suffering masses of humanity the world over, and the Negro church is the only church through which those suffering masses may speak. Let us look forward to the time when the peasants of Europe, the oppressed of China and of Asia, the outcast of India, the hottentot of Africa, the crushed laborer of America, shall look up to the Negro church and the Negro pulpit and the truly Negro brotherhood as their ideals of Christian and social preachment, and when they shall all join hands, and say, 'At last we have found one brother in Christ.' For mankind are one in spirit, and an instinct bears along. 'Round the earth's electric circle, the swift flash of right and wrong; Whether conscious or unconscious, yet Humanity's vast frame.

HOUSTON, TEXAS, SATURDAY, JULY 31, 1926 REPUBLICAN PRIMARY ELECTION PURE FARCE! The republican primary election, held Saturday, July 24, 1926, was a farcical attempt to stage the party's first primary election in Texas, and County Chairman R. B. Morris and his "lily-white" gang certainly made a mess of their attempt to stage an election. With a pre-election election of 20,000 or more white republicans in Houston and Harris County, Morris contended before the election, that even had the district court compelled him and his executive committee to cast a ballot as a candidate for republican county chairman, it was not a possible chance for Richardson to win; for there were only 2500 qualified colored voters in Houston and Harris County. However, when one considers the small "white republican" vote tast for the Haines-Morris ticket in this county and city, and the fact that the county is not a large county or chance to cast a ballot in republican primary election of Saturday, July 24, it looks like in Morris' pre-election talk was all bull and bluff. The refusal of Morris and his executive committee to provide ballots and election paraphermalis, supplies and officials in the three large colored boxes in the Third, Fourth and Fifth wards was not just an accident or incident—it was intentionally done, premeditated and well-planned. The careful wires that Morris even refused to furnish election supplies to voters of the precincts where no voting booths had been provided, or where phoney and fictitious names had been published in the daily newspapers as the polling places for said precincts. Such requests for election supplies were with the statement that "we have men out now trying to locate the precinct where Morris took the place and he will be in the office pretty soon," etc., etc. So busy was Morris' telephone kept by anxious republicans trying to find the location of their polling places that Morris took his place placing his line out of order. Precinct No. 48. Fifth Ward, has more qualified republican voters than any precinct in the ward and county, there being fully 650 or 800 qualified republican voters in that ward and voting in that ward, more than any precinct in the county, dear Morris and his committee as the polling place for republican voters in said precinct, failed to locate this polling place. Precinct No. 30. Fourth Ward (the San Felice section), has more qualified republican voters than any precinct in the county, 240 votes for Butte, republican candidate for governor, to say nothing of the large vote it gave Mrs. Ferguson, the democratic gubernatorial candidate. The polling place for these Fourth Ward voters, "W. B. Wright's garage," has never been located by these voters, despite the fact that a two-day search was institute to it. Precinct No. 25. Third Ward (the Emancipation Park-Yates High-deep Third Ward section), has more than 500, nearly 600, residents in that section of the city own their own homes, or are purchasing them. Their designated polling place, "Galager's farm house," was finally found, but no election supplies, booths or officials were there, and no one was permitted to cast a vote in this precinct. Thus, in these three precincts alone, fully 1,500 qualified republican electors, enough to change the course in any election, were willfully and maliciously disfranchised by Morris and his regime, and were not permitted to cast a vote in a political monarchy can exit) is a resident of and vote in one of the disfranchised precincts. We wonder how and where the "dear brother" cast his ballot for "Boss" Morris! (Let us pray!) The Informer office was delegated with complaints from numerous voters, and that no election was being at the polling places designated by Morris and his committee in the Houston Post-Dispatch under dates of July 28 and 24, 1926. Included in the list of polling places were several residences of white people, and even a white boarding house. Numerous voters registered complaints that, in many instances, the polling places were located in places altogether different from the address or location printed in the daily papers; and that many of them were in out-of-way houses, barns and garages, with nothing visible to indicate that it was a polling booth. One white republican, who had been quite active in trying to stimulate interest in the party primary election, spent three hours trying to locate his booth, and, failing to find it, he and his wife went to the democratic polls in their precinct and cast their votes for democratic candidates. Whenever and wherever a colored republican sought to vote in the next nearest precinct, since no election was being held in his own, the election officials would deny him or her this right; de- The Houston Informer South's Greatest Weekly Newspaper apite the fact that democratic election officials in several of the city precincts where the republicans were not holding the prigesting power of the federal government were not holding the prigesting that they could make an affidavit to the effect that no election was being held in their precincts, and the election officials could not prevent them from voting. But the republican election officials did refuse every colored republican to transfer such vote from a disunfeasible precinct to an enfranchised precinct—in a county election, too! Then, to climax the entire fiasco and mock election, Morris stated in the daily press that Richardson was in error when alleging that elections were not being held in all the city precincts, though no election could be held in Richardson's own precinct. No, 10, Fourth Ward, as can be attested by the leading ministers, doctors, business men and citizens of said precinct. Morris even went further and stated that all the votes cast for C. F. Richardson for county chairman, where the voters serated his own electing权. The same name could not be legally counted, since such voting was illegal. Following out the ancient custom of changing a man's name after some eventful happening, The Informer now changes the Harris County republican county chairman's name to “Ruthless Burgess.” For he "knows his onions" in the political hold game and partisan burglarry SINCE WHEN IN TEXAS DID IT BECOME ILLEGAL TO SCRATCH THE NAME OF ANY CANDIDATE SEEKING AN ELECTIVE OFFICE AND TO WRITE IN THE CHOICE OF THE VOTER, EVEN THOUGH SAID CANDIDATE HAD NEVER RECEIVED THE OFFICE, the county chairmanship was not and is not a nomination in a party primary election, but IT IS AN ELECTION. Article 3118 of the General Election Laws of Texas, revised, settles this issue and question; for the county chairman assumes his office on the Saturday following the run-off primary, and his name does not appear on the official ballot of the party as a nominee in the November election. The caption of Article 3118 reads: "County Election, County, and Precinct Chairmen, Elected at Primary, Etc." THE TRUTH OF THE MATTER IS, MORRIES AND HIS GANG ARE DETERMINED TO RULE OR RUIN THE REPUBLICAN PARTY IN HOUSTON AND HARRIS COUNTY, AS WELL AS THE GREAT DISTRICT OF BROOKLYN, WITH A HARD FALL, BUT TO RUNATION AND THEIR POLITICAL UNDINGO; FOR ALL SUCH DISFRANCHISING TACTICS AND ATTEMPTS TO KEEP DOWN THE PARTY VOTE IN ELECTIONS OF THIS SORT, ARE SIMPLY CORROBATING WHAT IS GOOD FOR THEM. THE FLOOR OF THE UNITED STATES CONGRESS, AND WHAT CONGRESSMEN FRANK Q. TILSON AND WILL R. WOOD TOLD R. B. CREAGER IN A SERIES OF COMMUNICATIONS IMEDIATELY AFTER CONGRESSMAN WURZBACZ'S EXPOSE OF THE BOTTEN CONDITION<sup>4</sup> IN THE TEXAS G. O. The Informer has several lists in circulation for the qualified voters to sign, where no polling place was provided in their precinct and where they, as republican electors and American citizens, were refused and denied a chance to participate and vote in the primary of their own party—disfranchise and discriminate, the lowest dye, and the lowest species of gutter-smite, partisan politics. THE INFORMER URGES ALL REPUBLICAN VOTERS, WHO WERE THEN DISFRANCHISED AND DENIED AN OPPORTUNITY TO BE A MEMBER OF THE PRIMARY ELECTION OF SATURDAY, JULY 24, 1926, TO SIGN THESE FETTINGS, GIVING THEIR NAME AND ADDRESS; FOR WE DO NOT INTEND TO PERMIT SUCH A FETTING. THE INFORMER WILL ELECT ELECTION LAWS OF TEXAS TO GO UNCHALLENDED AND UNCONSTESTED, AND IF OUR PEOPLE WANT THEIR CONSTITUTIONAL AND GOD-GIVEN RIGHTS AS OTHER AMERICAN CITIZENS, WE URGE THEM TO UNITE THEIR FORCES AND HAVE ALIDITY OF ANY SUCH FARCICAL AND MOCK ELECTION. The Best Blood of Our Race Has Not Only Been Insulted, But Outraged; Our Political Rights Have been Bavaged By Political Criticism and a Fetting Challenge to the Faces, and Faces, and Faces, and Encourage These "Lil-White" Lords, Cars and Emperors to Completely Disfranchise Us and Our Posterity by Having Introduced into the Texas Legislature a Bill to Make the State a Fetting State. TO ARMS, YE FREEMEN AND AMERICAN PATRIOTS, AND LETS ROUT THESE FOES TO DEMOCRATIC FORM OF REPUBLICAN GOVERNMENT AND ORDERLY PROCESSES OF ADMINISTRING PARTISAN AFFAIRS! SELAH! CONGRESSMAN WURZBACH WINS GREAT VICTORY. News dispatches from San Antonio, the political battleground between Congressman Harry M. Wurzbach on one side, "Rotten Boss" Creger, Eugene Nolte and Fred E. Knetch on the other side, state that the congressman was remonstrated by the republican party for his failure to vote in the primary election; just as this paper predicted several weeks before the election. To accomplish Congressman Wurzbach's defeat, Creger and his reelection induced a former democratic office holder of Kimble County, Knetch, who had removed to Guadalupe County, to enter the race against Wurzbach; and then the republican bosses flooded the 14th congressional district, and especially San Antonio, with money to insure and assure Wurzbach's defeat. Creger issued a pre-election statement that the republican organization in Texas would not support nor vote for Wurzbach in the November election, should the congressman be successful in the primary election. Creger also issued a pre-election statement that the congressional district, Texas and the nation, and Knetch returned to his private law practice, it will be interesting to watch future developments along the Alamo City sector; for Creger has not kept it secret that he intends to exert every effort to win the congressional election for Congressman Wurzbach at the general election in November. Since Creger is a sticker for "partly regular." The Informer wonders if he will bring out an independent congressional candidate against Wurzbach in November, or will "Rotten Boss" Creger not defeat the congressman in the republican primary election, with some of his henchmen and hangers on in control of the party, so does the poor fellow hope to defeat Wurzbach in the general election. Congressman Wurzbach favors a partisan organization in Texas that will build up normally, rather than abnormally, a large reorganization of the state's federal budget to dispensing of federal pte; while Cleragle wants an organization only in name, with him as the carer and boss with authoritarianism. INFORMOGRAMS Passing Parade "Et tu brute" came forcibly to our mind, while reading an editorial in *The New York Times* on Mr. Love, an editorial charles by our old friend, the Honorable Charles Norvell Love, a friend of nearly 30 years. Mr. Love, who has alluded to all jumps over us for his claim, committing an act which Mr. Love, the right of any American citizen, Duck, Crawford, Jr., with a crowd of Fifth Ward republicans, storming Richmond headquarters and demanding fictitious polling place designated for republican voters in prescinct 48, the 48th district. Rev. J. R. Burdette, pastor Basil Baptist Church, religious indignant because no polling place was provided for the republican voters in prescinct 40, Fourth Ward. And the good elder Now, my old friend "Cholly" or "Unkholly" as Climbee affectionately called it, was a great thing that, in all our fifty years so much has changed, we never before beheld charged with the making of a speech. We are fully persuaded that our finest-founded friend has been a great person, and some equally fair-minded person misunderstood an announcement for a "big speech." Mrs. T. R. D.

Why did we attend the first republican convention which was our good or bad fortune ever to attend, under the wing of the president? When were we just out of our teens. Rev. E. L. Harrison, pastor of the oldest and largest colored church in Texas, perhaps (Antioch Baptist), who has exhausted himself and worried Chairman Morris to death trying to find that celebrated "Wright Garage" in precinct 30, Fourth Ward. We are sure "Ukulek Cholly" remembers that convention at the city hall where the first two factions of the republican party and tables, chairs, and flats were flying so fast and furious that we left by the end of the day. "I couldn't find us for three whole days." Group of Fifth and Fourth Warders signating statements to the effect that they were furnished them for a republican candidate. 1560 republican, voters disfranchised by way to build up party vote and fine way for Morris and his regina to get We ask again, why did "Ginkgo Choly" jump on us in *Is it because he loves us less, we are sure, but may have missed it?" There are too many occasions he has shown that he had the slightest regard for us and we show that we show that. We have always seen that he is the most respectable aspect which is due an older and more experienced man from an understudy. W. J. Perry, Washington Avenue, more because he could not locate his pilgrine place. Cheer up. Will; you can't. I will. You're a publican publican friends last Saturday. Why has "Ukulel Choly" treated us an answer. We are rumped in answer. In answer, we are associated with one who has seen fit to ask us: "Why does she sacrifice position war" not "Ukulel Choly" to assail us? Are the shoulders of our employer burdened? He, our employer, at least is burdened to assist us to assist in carrying her. H. P. Carter, Richardson's campaign manager, wore out of a casing try. He was sent to a polling place. Discovered that the election judge of number 48 was not even in the city on election day, he was sent to the breeze man had no garage. Then, why did "Ukulele Chick" play "so important to the editor-in-chief" so important to the editor-in-chief tabulated journal should concede to attack one of the lesser satellites of the newspaper editors on the journalistic battlefield and three fight out their battle with the pen of the bill against the pen of the bill against the pen of the bill against those upon to the manner born. Mrs. Dalley Fenner, Howard Street, just cast her vote at the ballot box in Magnus Square, 4th Ward, num ber 28. Richardson headquarters crowded from early morn ill late night; some voted, majority could not vote; some voted to be removed from Outrors and his gang, but all be required to cast their valid votes in the election of equity. Why does Friend Love pick on us our people enough to support our people beeway, we he are an applicant for honors in the Army, we we have the mighood to support him just as we he thought he to stand up and fight for the last moment, we do not bump noses that, then he has failed to learn the lessons of our past, thirty years of our acquaintance. There goes Charles Stewart, one of the most famous men who went an operation and is getting along nicely. Clearly he follows heart beat news, not a political fight!
