NATIONAL MEDICAL ASSOCIATION AT PHILADELPHIA ELKS RE-ELECT WILSON HOME EDITION VOL. VIII NATION * * * * * ELK THE MIRROR Bp. C. F. BYCHARDSON TRAVELING OVER TEXAS. The conductor of Isia column, accompanied by his wife and youngest son, left Marlin last Saturday morning after a 9-day stay at the celebrated health resort of Texas. On Friday night preceding our departure it was our privilege to hear Miss Ernestine Jessie Covington, Houston's brilliant pianist, in a recital at the Marlin Hall. The organist, the most large audience, captivated and thrilled a large audience, composed of a large group of white citizens. Several of the latter remained to meet and congratulate the race artist. Miss Covington's grandmother, the mother of her father, Dr. B. J. Covington, of Texas, was the present head of the Marlin, as well as other relatives. Dr. A. L. Hunter was master of ceremonies and promoter. Rev. A. A. Lucas, Baptist pastor of Waco, and A. B. ("Bunk") Holland of Mexia were among the out-of-town persons to write the speech. Speaking of Mexia, reminds the writer that we motored via this oil town Saturday to see Col. R. T. H. Simmons, the Mexia capitalist and promoter. After driving this distance, breaking our rear bumper and nearly bogging up subsequently on the high ground, he was on the subject of Coral, the colonel was out of town. The next time we go to all this trouble to see Colonel Simmons, or any other colonel, general or commander, the said gentleman will be residing on some paved street in "Heavenly Houston," or maintaining offices in some downtown building. He received an honorary post in Colonel. We arrived in Dallas via Ennis and rough roads Saturday afternoon, ran by the Dallas Express to see Prater John W. Rice, the erudite editor of this newspaper. We discovered his Hupp, but could not find the letter. After lurching in "Big London" (Dallas), we hit the Bankhead high school, where we spent 541 miles of paved highway. Here we spent Saturday night, Sunday and Sunday night in the lovely home of the doctor. The doctor is one of the leading physicians of the section, and his brother, the technician in the Hunt County metropolitan. Both are enjoying a lucrative adjunct to their job. The wives of both doctors are very amiable, possessing a kind of kindness. Bledsoe is a delightful hostess and splendid artist, while their twin sons, Rahul and Raleigh, are We ran over to Commerce Sunday afternoon with Dr. R. W. E. (Ralph Waldo Emerson—some name, eht.) Bledsoe, and had a chat with our fraternal friend, Prof. G. S. Meadow, ed., and a�a of many years principal of the colored, high at Commerce. G. S. is a big man from several angles, size not excluded. Greenville has all the aspects and appearances of a real city, with traffic signal lights, motor bushes, and an area of \(1^{\circ}\). This city has more par-ed areas than any city its size in Texas, according to our observations; but the large sign—“Blackest Land and Whitest People”—aroused our curiosity. Apparently the writer of this huge welcome sign means his his�ic personal viewpoint, but from the standpoint of heart, disposition, attitude, etc., for we saw some of the “blackest people” extant in Greenville. Leaving Greenville Monday morning we motored via Paris, Clarksville and Kindred points (4000 miles) to the city of Greenville. Dr. R. W. E. is to three States in the afternoon. This is one of the best paved and graveled stretches of highway in Texas, being used from Greenville to Detroit (Texas—not Michigan). Dr. R. W. E. is to three states in rain between DeKalb and Cary. We are spending Monday night with our cousin, Mrs. Gussie Adams. Her husband, J. T. Adams, connected with the Southern Insurance Company, is out of the city on official business. Just had a friendly confab, “et cetera,” with Virgil T. Hornsby. G. U. Jamieson, Dr. T. Thompson. Dr. and Mrs. David Abner, Jr., of Houston are in Texarkana visiting their daughter and family, Dr. and Mrs. E. H. Randle. We did not have time to see Dr. O. W. McPeters, our classmate, but hope to see them again. Our others on the front and back of the R. W. Jamieson, Dr. and Mrs. E. H. Randle. We put our gasoline buggy to sleep THE HOUSTON INFORMER SESQUI-CENTENNIAL CITY HOSTS TO HUNDREDS OF MEDS MAYOR DELIVERS WELCOME Cleveland, Ohio—In a convention which, counting delegates and friends, is said to have attracted nearly 50,000 persons and is said to have been unequalled in the long history of the Elks in excitement and the dramatic highlights of a convention of its nature, the Improved Benefits were all the stakes here Friday afternoon, changed the "Hello Bill" to "Good-bye, Bill," and these thousands began the journey back home to talk over what might have been a regular election of officers. The disappointment was probably most keenly felt in the camp of the followers of the two flashy Easterners, Judge Edward Henry, political leader and adopted son of Philadelphia, who, if had been charged, was to have been made grand exalted rules. They were not just as good as they had been, and Harry H. Pace, the distinguished and politic New Yorker, who made a long and spirited fight to be elected secretary of the order. Perhaps the largest crowd ever assembled in the great Tindley Mathias Hall in the city of New York. The General Cavalier was in attendance at the great public meeting on Monday. The great public meeting was held at the Peele and Kendrick, mayor of Philadelphia, welcomed the large number of people from the city of New York, and the other city of New York, both the city and the association. The mayor expressed the desire to have a meeting at the same time the sincerity of his welcome, and paid a high tribute to the men representing the people. This session of the General Cavalier was furnished by a section of the Seagull Combatant chorus under the direction of W. Franklin Hoxter, Mrs. A. A. D. D. and Mrs. A. A. D. D. D. in the New Yorker's�. In Brown Powler of Pittsburgh as singing a number. The session was the first time the presentation of Dr. Alexander by E. T. Besaw, D. D. S., of Mobile, Ala., was held at the�. The session was a mark of esteem. Dr. Alexander made a touching acceptance to this presentation. Interesting Meetings and Clinics This session of the National Medical Association was marked by the most盛赞的会议. The session was held through out the entire session in hospitals and hospitals, and the meeting was held in a宏大规模. Jackson Operative Clinic held in the amphitheatre of the Jefferson Hos. It remained for Dr. George W. Bowles of York; Pa., to make a most fitting and timely response to what Mr. Bowles called "a great deal of news." Bowles did in no uncertain terms. Dr. Bowles let it be understood that there is no place in American life for any Caucasian who is so mean, so low, so narrow in the nature of the country, and so the limit the progress of those of a particular racial group. Dr. Walter G. Alexander, the president, read his annual address. Interesting features of this meeting were, as we have noted, rendered by Carl Diton the well known pianist-composer, who sang "Oh, Love But a Day" (Beach); "In the Silence of Night" (Rasch); "The Shade of the Sun" (Chickpea); Mrs. Clara R. Peters of Washington, D. C., sang "Spring's Awakening" (Sanderson), and "Ombre Legere" (From the Opera Dinoah). The Coleridge Taylor Song was the first song to be played in the section of Mr. Alfred Hill, rendered two selections. An ovation that continued several minutes greeted the announcement of the new performance of "Abigou, the famous contralto, would sing. Miss Anderson was in fine voice and had to respond to an encore, which went even better than her first number. It being the first song to be played in the section of the New Yorker could restore quiet. Mayor Kendrick was particularly well pleased with Miss Anderson's singing. A capacity audience greeted the new performance of "Abigou, the famous contralto" church Tuesday evening, when a testimonial in honor of the unique service rendered by Dr. Walter G. Alexander was given. Addresses were given. Addresses were given, and the national and national-level congression, found of the National Medical Association, of the Dr. C. Y.

W., of Mobile, Ala. of a quarter century gold case as a gift to the museum made a touching acceptance to this Interesting Meetings and Clinics This session of the National Medical Association was marked by the entire session of congratulations which were held through the entire session in hospital and medical facilities. The Jackson Operative Clinic held in Jackson was the only hospital in perhaps the most outstanding Exhibitions of Interest Several important exhibitions were also held, especially at the headquarters of the association. Many notable manufacturing chemists and medical and drug companies staged huge demonstrations of their products. The National Drug Company had perhaps the largest demonstration, as products of the new biological laboratories as well of the pharmaceutical laboratories were displayed. Interesting papers were read on the part played by the X-Ray in diagnosis, and Dr. R. W. Henry of Philadelphia, said to be one of the best informed medical experts on the use of the X-Ray, operated the discussion. The dental section was equally interesting, and modern methods used in the correction of defects of the mouth and teeth were demonstrated by prominent dentists from various States. There was also a surgical section, and after a rather spirited time at this meeting, members of the profession went to the Phippa Institute, University of Pennsylvania, and from there to the Jefferson Hospital where clinics were held. Important Features of Session At a session of the Natl.G.M. Association, the question of hospitals was discussed, and there was considerable talk as to the best means of arousing interest in the welfare of racial hospitals. At this meeting Dr. Doone, superintendent of the Philadelphia General Hospital, spoke. It was announced, which announcement, that the hospital was founded with a purpose of the "Hospital Association, meeting with the National Hospital Association in Chicago, recently agreed to furnish $26,000 for a survey of Negro hospitals. Social Activities Many social activities marked the session of the National Medical Association, which held the handmade ballroom of the Etafs three weeks a cabaret entertainment venue at the Club Alabam, while at the Club Alabam, when Atlantic City there were staged seven Dr. W. R. Banks, the new principal of Dr. Prince View State Normal and Industrial College, accompanied by Prof. Robert H. H. Cox, the senior leader, were in the city Tuesday, and took time from business to attend the office for time to pass the day of time. TIPS STARTED A FLOURISHING NEGRO COMPANY Durham, N. C. A., 31.-(By the Associated Negro Press.)—Economy in operation and unimfill service to the policholders are responsible for the Carolina Mutual Life Insurance Company, in the expression W. P. B. of the National Suity Company, New York, a recent issue of "The Insurance Field." Under the caption, "How Barbarian Tire" Started Flourishing Negro Life Insurance Company," Mr. Barbarian outlined the growth of the company and dissolved the organization hundred dollar death claim threatened to bankrupt and dissolve the organization present time when the company has more than 400 worth of insurance on the books. The writer describes the beautiful home of the company, with its well-organized departments, emphasizing the corps of doctors, nurses and laboratory assistants and X-ray experts, and the corps of doctors, nurses and laboratory assistants and X-ray experts, among Negroes declared: In view of these injuries the entire department has been referred to the North Carolina Mutual has been able to exist for all it is obviously important to the department, the higher than that charged by white companies for living there. The only operation of the department, both in the field of operation, both in the field of operation, which has cut the accident year, the lowest of any Negro company, and comparatively with the employment of any Negro company, after outlining the service that the company is rendering to the Negro community, in helping individuals to serve and preserve health through its health department, Mr. Barbarian's spirit of service that exists in the company permeated the founders and the community. John Merick, a barber, by economizing and saving his tips was able to save $100 a week in cessions. Dr. A. M. Moore, the second president, was able to secure his office with the most strict economy and C. C. Spandell, the third member of the triumphing, the most lived and paid off a $200 debt. Mr. Barbarth paid a glowing complaint to President Spandell's integrity counsel, who declared, "how the calm of the man and help to explain why he was so successful in guiding the destinies of this company through more than twenty-five years of business, increase more than 2,600 times." LAYMEN TO MEET WITH NATIONAL BAP. CONVENTION LAYMEN TO MEET WITH NATIONAL BAP. CONVENTION Hot Springs, Ark. Aug. 31.—(By the Associated Negro Press.)

(By the Associated Negro Press.) Philadelphia, Pa.—The thirty-first annual session of the National Medical Association was a most colorful gathering. Doctors, dentists, and pharmacists from practically every state in the union were present, numbering nearly two thousand. The number of the meeting members was 10,000. Smith Public School, and most of the meetings were held there and in the James Logan Public School adjoining. The first sessions were devoted to the registering of delegates and the meeting of Life Insurance Medical Examiners. There were meetings of the executive board, some directors, ex-presidents of the National Medical Association, and a few others. For it must be told, Pinfey Wilson, the idol of the ordinary Elk, of whom there are many and are bound to be the only one, was the only one to have been meeting. So badly did the Philadelphia entrant fare from the start that he had not been given the chance to speak. He was not in the heat of the fight. He had used the only one of his own to talk of election ring the towel he had with the "The Stampede" was made unsatisfactory. The stampede for Bates of New Jersey was almost as glorious as the lodge was almost as glorious from the standpoint of Bates and his friends. The stampede was not a great event, but Pinfey in favor failed to work for Pace.

Of course, the country in general and Elkdom in particular know that for the past few months the New York Insurance and Race Record man has been laying plenty of what the boys call "oil" on the grand secretary of the order. It was equally known that although Bates did not have a good way to answer back, Pace had not thought to take an advantage of his foe. Bates seemed to have come here charged to the gills. The brother was really mad. It looked like he had fied back in his home town and planned it all out. That fellow up in Harlem was to be put in the condition of a flat tire. When he made his report to his brother Elks he took about four hours of their time. One hour was given to the report and about three hours generously displayed upon the light-skinned Mr. Pace. And Bates, in his categorical denunciation of his opponent missed nothing. Summed up everything he said about Pace was bad. He accused him of being a high-brow, of having a hankering to be one of the other race and of non-attendance at his own lodge meetings. When Bates finished the good old country brothers from Missasipp and Alabama were pretty sure that Pace was not the kind of a man for them. At that, Pace made a good reply which was no reply at all. The next day he informed his brothers in the convention that he could not criticise Brother Bates. "I have prayed over this three," he said, staring surreptitious that a New Yorker could pray and would admit it. He have even prayed for brother Hate. He has even prayed for brother brother. He is my brother. He is my brother. He is my mad. I did not mean to hurt him. It was put over it, and dramatized. For a time it was thought that these tactics of "non-resistance might have been used to prove that the elves did not care any more for such principles in Cleveland and those were the two big fights. Mrs. Erika Berry was elected to succeed Mrs. Berry as the Daughter Ella. Mrs. Berry comes to be a highly worth influence in the constructive life of the city. Carter tried to fight for his job. He was a treasurer. There was not much of a fight for his job. He met next year in New York. For the last few years he was a lot of honor in the judge by BISHOP GREGG A. M. E. CHURCH OFF FOR FRANCE BISHOP GREGG A. M. E. CHURCH OFF FOR FRANCE New York, N. Y., Aug. 31.—(By the Associated Negro Press.)—Bishop J. A. Gregg, resident bishop of the A. M. E. Church in South Africa, satired September 1, aboard the French liner DeGrasse for Havre, France, after a stay of several months in this country, most of which time was occupied in the nation-wide campaign which his church has been making for missionary work. Bishop Gregg has been designated by the Bishops' Council to represent the church at the International Missionary Conference which will be held in LeZoute, Belgium, September 11-21. This conference, which is to be made up of representatives of all the Protestant churches of the world, promises to be one of the most far-reaching missionaries and theologians in recent years, and it felt that the bishop's wide experience in the field will make him a potent factor. From Belgium the bishop, who is accompanied by Mrs. Gregg, will book on September 24 on the Union Castle liner Edinburgh Castle from Edinburgh, Scotland, for Capetown, South Africa, where he arrives on October 11, in time to participate in the dedication of the splendid new church in Capetown given to Africa by the women's home and foreign missionary ladies of America.

This was work which was born only last year, and that the Gary man has developed beyond the wildest dreams of his brothers. The Elks are now contributing funds which are divided into scholarships, provide radio lectures, and many other things calculated for inspire the desire to learn and learn and learn. Naturally, this being a convention, there was a lot of speaking. They had the mayor of the town, whose duty it was, one senator, and a large assortment of other public officials. There were also a number of big, but unofficial, Negroes who were accorded the honor of "saying a word," a phrase which either has "never been correctly defined or properly lived up to. Cleveland was very sorry to see all the delegates leave. The folk seemed to be in the position of landlady who has lost a good boarder. Hospitality around this town showed itself in the fanciest kind of prices. It is probable that when some of the brothers get back to Georgia they will find their trip up here has cost them several miles. Some of them came prepared to stay a week and discovered that they had not brought enough along to pay their ice water bill. At that, it may be a part of progress for a town to have the get-rich-quick idea. COMMISSIONERS REWARD GUARD WITH SMALL SUM Chicago, Aug. 31.—(By the Associated Negro Press.)—The Cook County Board of Commissioners voted unanimously Tuesday to give Henry Brown, colored guard in the county fall, a sum of one hundred dollars for his bravery in thwarting an escape effort of seven notorious desperates in the prison. Brown, after another unarmed guard had been beaten by the aroused prisoners, pretended to have a gun and frightened the would-be fugitives by his very coolness. The county commissioners went deep into their pockets in making the $100 gift. Policemen on the Chicago force who perform exceptional acts of bravery are usually granted promotions and increases in pay which amount to something. Some talk was at first heard of advancing Brown in his position at the fall, but it seems as though the authorities are disposed to forget Brown. Of course, to promote him might mean placing white subordinates under his direction. WILEY COLLEGE SPECIAL. M. A. D.

INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOP-10 Friendship. With. God. FRIENDSHIP WITH God YOUNG PEOPLE AND AID TOPIC TOPIC: FRIENDSHIP WITH God 1. The Diving Command to Posease the Land (v. 1-3). 2. The abiding purpose (v. 1). 3. The holding the purpose and possess the land despite the fact that the calf worship had broken the bond between them and their God. God spoke of them and brought up out of Egypt, not as own people. They had not shown any signs of the God that therefore God could not claim them. 4. Diving aid promised (v. 2). Through their sins made it impossible for God to go with them, he still sent a calf to the angel before them to drive out their enemies. 5. The threatened withdrawal of the divine presence (vv. 8, 5). God said, "I will not go up in the mountains, nor needed people, I seek them the way." The presence of God in the midst of a sinning and impatient He人民 brought upon them. The mercy of God is often strikingly shown by God's withdrawal from His people. 6. The impact upon the people (vv. 4, 6). "When the people heard these evil idioms they promised." They had not understood the seriousness of God's threatened withdrawal. They knew that no angel could make up for the great loss of the personal presence of God. They called it "evil tidings." Surely no tidings are so evil as those which tell of the withdrawal of the divine presence. (2) They stripped themselves of their ornaments, showing that the articles which indicated gladness and joy could not be consistently worn when God had departed. We must be stripped of all that pertains to self and carnal pleasures if we be clothed with the divine blessing. 11. The Tent of Meeting (vv. 7-11). L. It was pitched outside of the camp (v. 7). As a token of the severed fellowship, the symbol of God's dwelling place, the tent of meeting was placed without the camp. While this showed the excommunication of His people, it showed also God holding out an opportunity to such individuals as sought the Lord to continue in fellowship with Him. 2. Moses in communion with God (vv. 8-10). Because Moses had not transgressed God's law, he still had fellowship with God. The visible sign to the people that God honored Moses was the descent of the "cloudy pillar" as Moses entered the tent of meeting. 3. Moses the friend of God (v. 11). **This** one of the most beautiful histories of the Bible, if not in all literature, Friendship implies many things. Moses was a position to share each other's secrets. 4. Joshua at home in the tabernacle. 5. Joshua was not involved in the rebellion of the people. Because of his idulity he was privileged to abide in the tabernacle. 6. **Hosea** Prayer (v. 12-23). **Moses** mind was somewhat perplexed for the solution of his mission. He had said that He would send an angel to carry out his Covenant obligation for the protection of the Land. Moses desired further knowledge of this angel so that he might act intelligently with reference to the land. Moses desired three things: **Moses** knowledge (v. 12-23). In order to lead the people he needed to know more fully his God. God gracefully responded to this request. Moses his presence would go with him and that He would give him rest. If the presence go not with him, He would make 15-17 Moses was convinced that no man could make God's place even though that one argued that it would be better to persecute the Israelites than to go into Canaan without God. Manifestly Present Never in all the world's history has God been more manifestly present in the world than in this cross. We can all see that now. God was there, if ever was ever there The True Prayer The true prayer in time of great trial, care, or sorrow, is not that we shall be delivered from the expert witness.

NICHOLS Physician and Surgeon Office: Taborian Blg., Suite 220, Preston 4181. 80714 Prairie Ave. Houston, Tex SACRIFICE FAILS AND GAME IS WON Failure to complete a sacrifice often helps to win a ball game for the team at bat, as was demonstrated in a recent game between the St. Louis Browns and Cleveland Indiana. The score was 5 to 0 when the sixth inning ended. Up to that round, Buckeys, southpawing for Cleveland, allowed the Sialerites only two hits, and the game seemed to be on "ice" for Cleveland. The Browns counted two tallies in the seventh and another in the eighth. With the score 5 to 3 in favor of Cleveland, the game went into the ninth round. Gerber singled. Schang batted for Ballou and hit safely to center, Gerber taking third. Bennett punched a pitch toward Spurgeon for a legal hit and scored Gerber. This left Schang on second and Bennett on first, while the markers then registered 5 to 4, with the Browns on the short end. As it seemed hard to manufacture runs, the sacrifice was the logical play at that period. Mellilo tried his best to drop one down the third base line, but failed in two attempts by bunting foul. With two strikes on him, there was nothing left to do but swing, and he plastered the next slant into center, on which Schang came home. From then on, it was a big pardon owed in counting eight runs before the smoke cleared away. The entire St. Louis club was hurt upon seeing the ball being pitched, tying and possibly the winning winnery, would follow on a base hit. His fall was the turning point in that ball game, and it is an app illustration of the game. Umpire Bill Klem Once Ejected From Ball Game John H. Farrell, secretary of the New York-Pennsylvania league, tells one about Bill Kill when the latter broke in an angry fight with some 25 years ago. Farrell was head of the circuit and it was he who gave Kill the fight. Here is the story as Farrell tells it: "Kill's first assignment was to work a game in Binghamton. During the game, he called to Binghamton player steal ball. The play was closed. Kill called the run out. The funnel however, finally, after all his powers of persuasion and personal efforts to influence the bench had failed, Kill called to one of Binghamton's players and instructed the bleacher to take the player out of the game. "What for?' demanded the officer. "Why, he's out and he refuses to be." We think the man was safe and I'm going to let him stay right there where he is. But I take you to the car. I have used force and the cap." Progress of Paul Waner It is interesting to watch the upward progress of Paul Wauer, of whom it was predicted by some very enthusiastic fans that the race execution of this class-based count would explode in June. If he had far—with farship as a prerequisite—to average at the next call should be about 333. He is going up and up, and it is to explode all the knocks that were given him by a band of very bad pickets. He has a chance to lead the race, but he is not enough than four or five weeks of hard and concentrated work to do it—and what the p哄 Oklahoma yongster.

LITTLE CORPORAL STACKS HIS ARMS AT CONVENTION Cleveland, Ohio, Aug. 31.—(By the Associated Negro Press.)—Gillchrist Stewart, one of the most prominent members of the New York bar and a national leader in fraternals, died Wednesday morning at 3 after suffering for nearly an hour from an attack of acute indigestion. He had come to this city with the New York delegation to the Elks' convention with the avowed intention of lending his influence to an effort to bring the convention to New York next year. Mr. Stewart's activities in many lines gained him the admiring soubriquet of "The Little Corporal". All his life he was a great little fighter. For a quarter of a century New York knew him as "the little corporal" in republican politics. With Bishop Walters and Charles W. Anderson, he was foremost in the leadership of republican politics from 1901 to 1912. When in that year Bishop Walters supported Woodrow Wilson for president after that fateful conference at the summer White House in New Jersey, "the little corporal" refused to follow and remained with his party. During the Roosevelt administration in the investigation and trial of the 24th and 25th infantry regiments, Gilchrist Stewart, believing in the innocence of the men charged with shooting up Brownville, Texas, donned overalls, went to Brownsville, and secured the necessary information for United States senator. John Benson Porsker, defense counsel, to establish the innocence of the soldiers. This valuable information, which enabled the defense to successfully defend the clients, kept the country in an upwarer. Mr. Stewart also figured prominently and sensationally in an investigation of the Standard Oil Company. Mr. Stewart attended Tuskegee and was educated as a dairyman, at which ride he worked for a few years before taking up the study of law. As an attorney he was one of New York's leading barriers. With an office on lower Broadway, he enjoyed an especially lucrative practice. His father was Judge T. McCart Stewart, at one time co-editor with T. Thomas Fortune of the New York A-B. Judge Stewart was the first man of color to pass the New York standard of his son experienced much difficulty because of his Standard Oil investigation. In later life Judge Stewart migrated to Liberia, where he became a member of the Supreme Court.

Special to The Informer Marlin, Texas.—Miss Ernestine Jessie Covington, the accomplished daughter of Dr. and Mrs. B. J. Covington, Houston, Texas, appeared in a plans recital at the First Baptist church, colored, Rev. A. L. Jackson, pastor in this city, Friday night, August 27th, under the auspices of the Y. W. A. girls, who were ably assisted by Dr. A. L. Hunter, proprietor of the Standard Bath House and Sanitarium. This being the former home of Miss Covington's father, Dr. B. J. Covington, the entire community was easier to pay tribute to this wonderful artist, who has gained national fame as a musical genius, and the church was filled to its capacity with members of both races. The program, consisting of numbers from the best composers known to the musical world, met with a hearty response from the audience. Editor C. F. Richardson of The Houston Informer, was present and made a short but interesting talk. While here Miss Covington and her mother, who accompanied her, were the guests of Dr. Covington's mother and sister. AN EXHILARATING EFFECT herbivores on our home an IKEA kitchen home all the time.

ADHESION Cobesion is derived from the Latin, being words, con and haeree, meaning to *stick* connection, con and dependence; that of form at attachment, connection; quality; cleaving together bodies or substances. Adhesion forms its component parts from and haeree, meaning to stick to somethin postage stamp is affixed to a letter; as was the force with which distinct and separat surfaces are brought in contact, as wheel to the rail, etc. driven from the Latin, being a combination of two hareies, meaning to stick together; the state of pendence; that form of attraction by which bodies affinity; cleaving together; holding fast to like naces. as its component parts from two Latin words, ad naming to stick to something or somebody, like a affixed to a letter; as wax sticks to the fingers; which distinct and separate bodies adhere when are brought in contact, as a locomotive's driving etc. Cohesion is derived from the Latin, being a combination of two words, con and haerere, meaning to *stick together*; the state of connection or dependence; that form of attraction by which bodies touch each other or qualify; cleaving together; holding fast to like bodies or substances. Adhesion forms its component parts from two Latin words, ad and haerere, meaning to stick to something or somebody, like a postage stamp is affixed to a letter; as wax sticks to the fingers; a nail is affixed to a wall; their surfaces are brought in contact, as a locomotive's driving wheel to the rail, etc. Like molecules cohere and unlike adhere. In other words, there is a VAST DIFFERENCE BETWEEN SUSPENSION and SOMERODY. All the great races and nations of both sacred and secular history were successful only in proportion as they obeyed and pursued the law of cohesion, but when they began to practice the law of adhesion to the excursion of the law of cohesion, the germs of internal anatomy and destruction began to manifest into their racial entity. There is an old maxim which asserts that "Blood is thicker than water," which is daily being evidenced on all sides, which is nothing more than the prevalence of the law of cohesion or sticking together. Even Jehovah Himself can not use people that are non-cohesive and if one will search the record and read the history of His chosen people—the Israelites—he will find that when they became obsessed and burdened with the adhesive properties and mortal pain, then they stuck together, some direful calamity always befell them. Through the divinely appointed and inspired prophets of old, Ged even admonished His people to "separate" or draw away from entangling allies and unholy intercourse with hostile groups, prosecute His larger program and prevent the restoration and reclamation of lost man through the Abrahamic seed. NA RACE GIVEN ALMOST WHOLLY AND UNRESERVEDLY EVER AMOUNTED TO MUCH, EITHER IN THIS WORLD OR THE WORLD TO COME: FOR RACIAL SOLIDARITY IS THE CHIEF PREREQUISITE FOR SUCCESS AND "A HOUSE DIVIDED AGAINST ITSELF CANNOT STAND." A grave race is to gain and occupy its place in the sun, cohesion and not adhesion must be religiously observed and rigidly practiced from the cradle 'to the grave and we must think more in terms of each other and act in accordance with our thoughts. During the past half century or so we have been too long on religion and, therefore, there is no better time to change our program than right now—today. COHESION AND ADHESION: THE FORMER MAKES FOR ROCHESTER, BETTERMENT AND SOLIDARITY WHILE THE ROCHESTER APART, TORN ASUNDER, OUR FORCES DIVIDED, CONFUSED AND BITTERLY ENGAGED IN INTERNAL BICKERING AND WARFARE OF A DESTRUCTIVE NATURE. We resolve that from this day forth we shall stick to other people less and stick together more and when we do that we shall be free citizens instead of more freed people. THE SOVEREIGNTY OF AMERICAN VOTERS. In a democratic republic, such as our country—America—protests to be, the only sovereign is the voter and the ballot is the only means of a citizen expressing himself on men and measures. It is not only the right to vote, either through legislative disfranchisement or high-handed action of political cliques and partisan rings, said American citizen is robbed of his constitutional rights and prerogatives, and he thus attains a status below that of chattel slavery or the most pernicious type of peonage and serfdom. The right to vote, either through legislative disfranchisement or high-handed action of political cliques and partisan rings, said American citizen, whether native-born or naturalized, and when this constitutional right is abridged or denied free Americans, then the basic laws of the republic have been violated and the manipulators of such disfranchisement, whether consumes or commits enemies to American ideals, institution, traditions and principles. The American government, both national and state, was founded on the principle of popular government—the rule of ALL THE PEOPLE; and the founders never conceived it idea that a vote would ever be abridged or denied American citizens by a voter of designing politicians and partisan swashbucklers. The ballot system and American freedom are the culmination of blood, sweat, toll, and sacrifice, and the elective franchise privilege is not a plighty—something to be handled or juggled at by a voter of designing politicians or class, either in a political state, state or national government. No man or partisan regime has any legal authority to deny American citizens the right to vote in any election, and particularly where the disfranchisated citizens are members of the political class, either through their inherent fundamental and elemental rights and warranties. On July 24, 1926, thousands of American citizens were disfranchised and denied their sovereign rights as voters, by the republicans, who were inciting and suppressing the republican primary election in such manner as to deny the majority the privilege of casting a ballot in said party election. In the editor's overland jaunt over Texas we have discovered The Houston Informer that the republican (?) leaders pursued such tactics throughout the state, most notably, where they felt that their machine was in danger of being defeated and wrecked; and with a possible voting strength in excess of 100,000, the Texas G. O. P. poll less than 10 percent of these American citizens and republican electors, who were so shamefully and shockingly denied their sovereign rights as voters, are not willing to wage a determined fight, in court and otherwise, for the retention and exercise of their constitutional rights, then in the case of a political fiasco, they are approximately 2,000 or more qualified voters of Houston and Harris County were disfranchised and denied their sovereignty as American voters in said republican primary election on July 24, 1926, and the Informer has employed legal counsel to contest the legality of a political fiasco and partisan joke in a court of law. A campaign for funds is now being conducted, and all citizens, who believe that they are freemen and not slaves; that they should have and exercise the right to vote; who believe in the sovereignty of the American ballot; who are opposed to a coterie of politicians stealing or confiscating their constitutional rights—all such citizens are urged to contribute some substantial amount to this legal fund. This is a grave issue and is the cause of all the people. Only slaves and cowards would quit in such a cause. Remember, "winners never quit, and quitters never win." Send all contributions to The Informer, Legal Defense Fund, Houston, Delays are dangerous and procrastination is the thief of time. PIANO TUNING Repairing and Refinishing THOS. H.

New York—The September number of the Crisis contains the first article in virtue of an appropriation of $3,000 from the Fund for Public Services, known as the Garland. The article, which covers the State of Georgia, shows that the average amount of money the State is $28.29 and the average amount on each colored child amount is $28.29 and 81 per cent on the white children. The survey contains a history of the school of children in Georgia, a summary of school laws affecting coloured children, tendencies, expenditures, value of school property, libraries, and the 115 libraries for colored schools as against 1417 for white, and that the white children are against 12188 books in the coloured. The investigation by the Crisis is typified by the following fact. The schools in this county are colored in taught mainly in two churches with no equipment and a few feet of home-made black "Ben Hill County: Cowieke, in this county, used as a school a dilapidated building and a church. There is one room, one teacher and the school run for four years. The teachers are attendance good. The salary of the teacher is $25 a month. The school is a building which is in a very dangerous condition, being nearly ready to fall. The teachers are salary is $25 a month and the teachers receive $40 a month. Union is held in a frame building with no windows, no lights and the school benches have no windows. The teachers are four months and the teacher's salary varies from $10 to $14 a month. The commissioner of Education in Georgia. The Negro schools in this county are not a separate school. It is reported, 64 children are left "without a seat or a desk at which to study." The teachers get $15 a month and in Jones County at a typical school. Students are taken out of school during the peach season. This was ordered by the board. The summary of school conditions in Georgia, as investigated by the state, included "the many missions: "The data collected from counties scattered on the State show that schools are less than six months, which is the legal requirement. "The data collected in lodge rooms which are used for Negro schools are chiefly old, dislapped buildings, unit
