FLORIDA LEADING MISSISSIPPI FOR MOBOCRATIC FLAG New York, Sept. 3.—According to statistics published by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 69 Fifth Avenue, the lynchings in the first 8 months of 1926 have already exceeded the number for the entire year 1925, there being 20 lynchings to date this year as against 18 for the whole 12 months of 1925. In addition, whereas no white man was lynched in 1925 there have been two lynchmed already during the current year. The leading states thus far this year are Florida with five lynchings and Mississippi with four. Responsibility for the increase in lynchings was placed squarely upon the shoulders of the United States Senate by the N. A. A. C. P. "While there was the hope and the threat that the Dyer anti-lynching bill would be passed," says an N. A. A. C. P. statement, "lynchings sharply declined. Now that the senate by its indifference and hostility to this legislation, has again indefinitely postponed any hope of enactment of a federal anti-lynching law, the lynchers have again become emboldened. "The present disgraceful increase in mob murder throughout the United States again brings to the front the crying need for federal action to stamp out this crime. The N. A. A. C.

YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT LUPUS-10-Genous and Eysomatic Giving. 1. What the Tabbascarie Was. It was a rectangular structure with 10 cubes and 10 cubes high. This was divided into two rooms, the holy place and the holy of holies. The two rooms were separated by a wall with 100 cubes within a wall of 100 cubes long and 60 cubes wide. Within the court, with 60 cubes found the brasen altar. was situated the brasen altar. Between the altar of sacrifice and the door of the tabercarie was placed the table of sacrifice. In the court, found the candiestre and also the table of shewbread. Directly in front of the table of sacrifice was the covenet. The altar of incense was closely connected with the brasen altar in the contact of fire and blood. In the court, the incense was the covenet, the most sacred object of the entire tabercarie. This ark was made of marma and rood that budded. 11. The Meaning of the Tabernacle. The tabernacle was the symbol of God in Christ. John says that the Word be typified the incarnation of God in Christ. John says that the Word be typified the incarnation of God in Christ. John 1148. The furniture of the tabernacle, beginning with the brazen altar symbolizes the spiritual history of the Word outgoing by the way of that altar. The question of all must be settled by the question of all that outgoing by the way of that altar lays the sanctification of the believer. The sacrifice at the brazen altar signified atonement. The shivaization at the laver, prefiguring the influence of God's power, his ordinances and the operation of the Holy Spirit. The its extending branches indicated the unity and diversity of God's people, emancipated from the sanctification of the believer, namely, to shine for God. The table of shewbread was for a memorial of the Lord, the increase of worship. The putting of the blood from the brazen altar on the altar of the rests on the ground of the stoning work of Christ. The vall symbolized the flesh of Christ. The rendition of the sacrifice shows that the death of Christ gives access to God. The mercy seat of the sacrifice was spindled indicates that the claim of God's law had been satisfied. 11. The Offerings of the Tabernacle. "Whoever is of a willing heart, let him bring it, an offering of the Lord." Giving which meets God's approval must be made. Giving must not only be made of a willing mind but it must be as unto the Lord, an expression of love and godly grace. 2. Who had part in giving (v. 22). They came, both men and women. 3. What was to be given (v. 22). Giving that women should unite in the support and care of the worship of God. 4. What was to be given (v. 22, 28). Under this heading two interesting things stand out—measure and variety. 1) Measure. They brought what they had to bring. 2) Measure. They brought obligation to give that which he does not possess. Capacity is the measure of responsibility. 2) Variety. They brought jewelry (v. 22); some brought gold (v. 22); some brought fine linen (v. 22); some brought goat's hair and rough skin (v. 22); who cared for it. 3) Measure. They cared for the rulers brought the expensive things that were needed (v. 27). 4) Measure. They were needed in the Lord's house. O God, we come into Thy presences and confess the many sins we have done, and pray that Thou will forgive them all.

"Twenty-two years of my life's service I have given free, teaching bacteries and various other subjects, and various other subjects. I have given my financial support when the hospital was in need of money. I did this not because of the returns that I thought I might receive from my efforts, but I did it for the sake of the patients. I have supported the cipheries for which I thought the Methodist church supports, supported the administration and given my personal support to the present superintendent, Dr. Heath.

ANY MAN WHO IS GOOD ENOUGH TO SHED HIS BLODD FOR HIS COUNTRY IS GOOD ENOUGH TO BE GIVEN A SQUARE DRAFT AND APPROVED. NO MAN IS ENTITLED TO MOVE AND NO MAN SHOULD RECEIVE LEBS. — ROOSEVELT. HOUSTON, TEXAS, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 11, 1926 GOOD INVESTMENT FOR SOME TEXAS ORDER. After spending about 10 days recently at Marlin and noting the wonderful opportunities offered our people, collectively, for the establishment and operation of a bath house-hotel on the order of those manned and conducted by face organizations at Hot Springs, Ark, the editor of The Informer is thoroughly convinced that some colorated fraternity in Texas could perform a worthwhile service to its members, race and society by establishing such an institution at this Lone Star State "Spa." Numerous scientific and medical authorities have stated that the mineral water at Marlin has few equals and no superiors in America for its medicinal and healing qualities, and when one beholds the marvelous cures affected by this water, he is forced to heartily concur with these authorities. The people at Marlin by some organized body, such as the Texas Pythians or Odd Fellows (we omit the United Brothers of Friendship, because they have a sanitarium-clinic project at Marshall), it could be made a great health center for members of the order and race, and also prove a money source. During our short stay in Marlin during last month, the Standard Sanitarium-Bath House, owned and operated by Dr. A. L. Hunter, one of the leading physicians of Central Texas, was its capacity every day by a throng of people seeking the curature of the facilities of said bath house could hardly accommodate the people. Despite the fact that Dr. Hunter has a nice, modern health and bathing institution, Marlin is a fine field for an investment along this line by some racial fraternity in Texas, and we believe that the people of this kind, provided he is not left completely out of the equation. It would be an easy matter for some fraternal order to finance this proposition, and the Informer holds to the opinion that such men should be converted into a paying one, if properly manned and managed. Adopting as our slogan, "Texas money for Texas institutions," with proper housing and bathing facilities, backed up by judicious advertising, such an institution would mean much to the order and management. Too many of our people are dying premature deaths and making heavy financial inroads upon the treasuries of our Texas orders because of the absence of hospital and clinic facilities, and the time has arrived when the heads of all fraternal orders and insurance companies take steps to prolong the lives of their members and policyholders. After all, this is an economic question and "self-preservation is the first law of nature," and maladies and diseases that are exacting such heavy tolls in lives among our people in Texas and the South, can be combatted and conquered with proper hospital-clinic facilities, with capable, well-trained and efficient doctors and nurses in charge of such an institution. And still is very considerate of and kindly disposed towards her children, and has provided many natural elements that can be employed to excellent advantage in alleviating the ills and pains of humanity; but to best employ these natural elements, as well as modern science and medicine, hospital facilities may be disposed of both the physicians and patients. In the case of a disposal of time, a time has arrived to undergo the surgeon's knife, or to succumb to the inevitable; but people resort to a hospital nowadays to prolong their lives, to undergo periodic examinations, to take advantage of the best that modern science and medicine afford and to keep physic- Aside from the wonderful healing and curative qualities of the mineral water at Marlin, the town is located near the center of the "black belt" of Texas, and is easily reached by train or automobile; while the relations between the two races are very amicable. Connection with the hotel-bath house, hotel accommodations could be provided; for it is largely in this respect that Marlin is now lacking, and so many of our people going there, with money to pay for service and what they want, are unable to get the same for love or money, merely because such service is not to be found in the town. The mineral water and its resultant recognition as a natural health resort, The Informer implies that Marlin is an ideal place for some Texas fraternal organization to erect, maintain and operate a modern hospital-bath hotel; and this paper hopes that this editorial suggestion will not fall upon deaf The Houston Informer FAILURE TO HIT IN THE PINCHES. So many of our people are living such fast lives and stepping on the gas with such reckless abandon that it bodes *HI* for the future of our race along constructive and worthwhile life. There seems to be a disintegration and breaking down of our home, and we are not sure if the church preaches too much gospel about things celestial and not enough about things terrestrial. We all have gone "bugs" about short cuts to this and that, and very few of us want to spend our days of apprenticeship along any given line. We are being content and willing to reach the top of the ladder, rung by rung, too many of us want to attain the summit without employing the lower rounds of the ladder as the means to the end. We regard and esteem, it appears, our race building as a joke and then have the brazen audacity to get puffed up when other women are in the room or run with the gang. In our maddened and frenzed efforts to "keep up with the Joneses" and make ourselves appear to the public as what we "ain't!" (pardon our grammar here), many of us will resort to all known and unknown schemes and tricks to "keep in society," or keep in marriage, or run with the gang. Jazzmans is the outstanding and most damnable and diabolical evil of modern times; men and women caring more for the passing and fleeting things of life than for the permanent and worthwhile things that go to make a strong, robust and fit race and that comes in the uplift, betterment, and advancement of any race or nation. People are being influenced entirely too much these days by their environments and are virtually worshipping at the shrines of jazz, passion, gold, fame, moral cowardice, social prestige and If men in high places can not shape their lives and control their appetites and passions within the channels of their means, what can we expect from those in the lower walks of life who regard themselves as the most important members of the athlete, the athlete, whether in baseball, football, on track or in any branch of athletics, who dissipates, carouses, keeps late hours, and absolutely refuses to obey the laws of health and ordinances of nature, can not long expect or hope to compete successfully with his opponents in the same line of athletic endeavor. If we are not able to obey the laws, the flesh is weak, his stamina is gone and his endurance a faded memory, and he soon passes from the athletic arena like dew before the penetrating rays of an August sun—"unwept, unhonored and unsung." Many of us are "brick-batting our opportunities" and too many of us are disregarding the training rules laid down in the manual of life, and thus when called upon to deliver a pinch hit we often fail to connect and our team and cause go down in inglorious defeat, ignominy and shame. We are not to be "according to Hoyle," racially speaking, and that from a collective angle; for often when called upon to sacrifice and advance the runner to second or third base in the great game of life, too many of us try to knock the cover off the ball playing to the grandstand, and hit into a double-play or take three swats at the atmospheric pressure and resume our training. We are not to be "according to Hoyle" ride us for our failure to deliver the hit at the critical moment. Often when some member of the race has hit a triple and nobody is out, he is left stranded on the third cushion because the succeeding batters are not able to cope with the situation, step on the ground, and get the ball to fly to the outfield, a safe bingle or the intricate squeeze play. What is worse, sometimes our batter knocks the pellet for four cushions, then fails to touch one of the bags, the ball is relayed to the baseman who touches the bags, theump waves the run-up, and then the ball is dropped, causing the cause for the failure of the runner to do the small touch of all the bags while circling the bases on his hefty hit. The worshippers, devotees and adherents of the addreses Jazmine Walters, the musician of the construction, unless they forsake her unholy renounce all allegiance and obeisance and mend their ways before her siren songs, enchanted music, vampish countenance and flapperier apparel lure them in such paths that they can not move. Once more, restore our family life take our feet off the gas, slow down the old machine before encountering the dangerous curves on the slippery highway of life and become serious and sober-minded in this gigantic program of life. The stick is short at its longest, while the fight is tight and the stick is short!
