S.C. LYNCHERS' NAMES EXPOSED HOME EDITION THE MIRROR The SHOE ON OTHER FOOT! Apropos of the poor showing of the republican ticket in Harris County, to say nothing of Texas (Candidate H. H. Halines having received less than 100 votes because of this and other votes because of that) at hour of writing this article, and less than 10,000 in the entire state, for govern-อก on the G. O. P. ticket), R. B. Morris, "Ily-white" county chairman, who says he has been a member of the House of Representatives, has been quoted in the daily press as charging the democrats with "ir-regunarities" in connection with the holding of the general election in this county Tuesday. The SRO, Morris, some of the republican election inspectors allege that polling places were moved from place originally designated without any previous notice, and that many voters could not find their polling places. The SRO, Morris, also suggests a regular and illegal practices on the part of Harris County election officials. We wonder if Mr. Morris remembers how he and his "executive committee" pulled off similar stunts on Saturday, July 24, 1926, and how several thousand republican electors were not only denied an opportunity to participate in their party primary, but were disfranchised and robbed of their political rights and power. For instance, Morris and his gang even designated fictitious polling places which did not exist and which have been 'erectified' by the government. Dr. T. M. Shadows, a voter in precinct number 48, who is now in Ohio on prospective trip, writes that he finally found "Dee's garage" during his over-run campaign. He says that the election was here as a man who had to go several shouand miles away from his voting precinct to find his polling place as designated by Morris and his regime. We have also mentioned the same nerve and brazen effrentery to openly aver that the republicans are likely to contest the election in Houston and Harris County because of the same irregularities that Morris and his hanchmen staged here during their primary. What is fair for the goose, Brer R. B., is also fair for the gander, and we should follow sowing as night to follow day. This is not intended as any defense for any election irregularities upon the election of Brer R. B., Houston and Harris County, but we merely wish to cite Morris' attention to his party in this same manner; and to politely inform him that he and his party in this same manner; and to humbly take a dose of their own medicine. The election results, returns are too meager at hour of writing this article to discuss same at length, but we shall have something to say along the way. Hush, little Robert, don't you cry, We'll have fair elections and by and by! FINE BIRTHDAY CAKE. The conductor of this department acknowledges with thanks a fine birthday cake presented to us by Ms. B. C. Kimberly, a clate and friend, Prof. S. B. ("Cimber") Williams. As a culinary artist she has taught this cake come up to the usual excellence and class of her kitchen product. Now watch some smart Alex dub this columnist as a "cake-eater!" My three sons, C. P. Jr., Leon and James, will be presented a beautiful moth to "Father," while my better-half presented her hubby with a lovely motto, "Pal of My Heart," for which we are profoundly grateful. "SUM" BIRTHDAY PARTY. The stag stunt staged by our friend, James T. Ewing, last Saturday night as a birthday party for the conductor of this column, was one of those "super" affairs, and it would require a group of superlative adjectives to fully describe the event and all the trimmings. Everything eatable, smokable, enjoyable, "playable," "in everything" abounded to the "nth, degree, and a folly bunch of fellows enjoyed the hospitality of the Ewings, toasted and roasted ye seribe, and then presented him with a lovely appointment diary. Not being satisfied, he gave the acceptance of the gift, led by Hobart Taylor and H. P. Carter, often dubbed as "the lion and the lamb," the men demanded an acceptance speech, and thus we were forced to trot out some remarks, which they applauded but did not remember (neither did we). If any one doubts whether an undertaker can be a "regular fellow" at such a social event, he should have beheld T. M. Palrchild "doing his stuff" at this stag. Thornton left to drive W. E. Jackson to the station, but returned in jiffy time and remained until the doxology had been sung by the gang and the benediction had been pronounced by Host Ewing. Talking about jokes and jokes, unless C. H. Waller, the man who made some one, had a move on them and I. E. Waller, a member of the fellows out at Jim's last Saturday night will shove the above triumphant into the background. Even Dr. J. E. Walker and M. S. Stuart, insurance luminaries of Memphis, Tenn., were not to be denied their turn at cracking jokes, and they had a long line too. Among other present were those THE HOUSTON INFORMER Walter White Bares Aiken's Klan Reign; Horrible Conditions "Early in 1924, Sam Lowman, his wife, Annie and their children moved from Saluda County where they had lived all their lives to the farm of a white man named Hartley, 13 miles from Aiken. As a result of a quarrel between this man and another white man, the latter sought to embarrass Hartley by notifying the sheriff that the Lowmans were selling whiskey. I talked with a number of white people and without exception they declared that the Lowmans were an entirely industrious, law-abiding and respected family. As a result of the anonymous letter to the sheriff, Sheriff H. H. Howard and Deputy Sheriff Nollie Robinson, R. L. McElhaney and A. D. Sheppard went to the Lowman home on April 25, 1925. Two weeks earlier, on a Sunday night, a crowd of klanamen robed and hooded had called Demon Lowman, 22-year-old son, from his home and whipped him. Sheriffa Showed no Badges. "When the four white supersils in plain clothes, and with no badges, approach the mother, the mother, 55 years old, was making soils in the backyard and her daughter Bertha, 27, was sweeping white loam from the mother, had gone to the mill to have meat ground, white Denom Woman and his cousin, who had been raised by Sam Lowman and his wife, were plowing in a field 100 yards away, and her daughters saw the white men apprehaching the house they thought it was a man, passed. The sheeris drew guns and started running towards the house screamed of Beaufort and Highchurch, postoffice clerk of Memphis, column is grateful to Mr. and Mrs. Ewing for this wonderful evening, as well as his associates and friends who helped scream the slogan of a certain automobile manufacturing are stained Jim Ewing will stare them. Again the mother, that we shall be able to both recapture and measure up to all the nice commitments paid by the follow's South's Greatest Weekly Newspaper HOUSTON, TEXAS, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 6, 1926 to the house as the sheriffs rushed into it. Sheriff Howard and Bertha Lowman reached the back steps at the same time. The sheriff knocked Bertha out of the way with his left fist, his pistol clutched in his right hand, shouting to her to stand back. In the melee Deputy Sheriff Robinson fired and killed Mrs. Annie Lowman. Bertha Lowman was shot twice in the left breast just above the heart and once through the abdomen. Clarence Lowman was also severely injured while Demon Lowman was shot but not wounded seriously. Sheriff Howard was killed by gunshot wounds and, in the first trial three state's with nesses testified taht a pistol bullet went through his head. The sheriffs had pistols. Clarence Lowman had a pistol but at no time was anywhere near Sheriff Howard or at a point where he could have shot the sheriff. In the trial it was brought out that the white men did not in any manner indicate they were officers of the law. Hasty Trial Amid High Tension. 7, a motion was made for a directed verdict of not guilty in the case of Demon Lowman. It was generally conceded in Alken that Clarence and Bertha would be freed by the jury the next day. At 5 in the afternoon Judge Lowman said that the trial was in the case against Demon. He was, however, immediately rearrested on a charge of assault and becomded to jail. Lynching Planned By Ku Klux Klan. “Within one hour after the judge’s decision, news had been sent to an distant point as Columbia that the three Lowmans were to be lynched that night. Within the same hour the Ku Klux Klan held a meeting in the office of a prominent white attorney of Alken who had been recently elected to the court. The court said that the meeting plans were perfected for the lynching and also plans were discussed, but abandoned, to tar and feather Mr. Frederick and to castrate Mr. Southard, the white attorney. A prominent and respectable white lawyer of Spartanburg warned Judge Lansham and Solloror Bert Carter that a lynching was in the same way as the case. The Lansham were committed to jail with only one guard, whereas plans had been made to remove the defendants hastily should they be convicted. “Shortly after midnight a police officer of Alken forced automobileists to remove cars from around the jail so that the lynchers would have a place to run. The police were not able to enable Sheriff Robinson, Deputy Sheriffs McBhaney and A. D. Sheppard, and Traffic Policeman Saley dragged Bertha Lowman from her cell, got the other two defendants and handed them over to the mob. After the mob had secured the prisoner two shots were fired inside the jail and they were killed in the mason, when he was trying to prevent an try of mob into the jail. "The mob numbering between 30 and 40 started out York Street on the 40 and started out two miles from Alken. On the way Clarence Lownan jumped on from the street and shot down and recaptured. In order to tell preventable blood mark, a mugger and the other of it around Clarence's body. In this manner he was killed instantly. The numbers of the mob stated that Birtha was the hardest man to kill, killed instantly. She dragged herself over the ground and, as one member moved deceptively, said that she碧碧 so about so that a number of shots had to be fired before one found a vital Facta Given to Governor. PAGE 104 TO GOVERNMENT G. McLoud, governor of South Carolina, in a 5-page letter, every detail regarding the lynching. I gave him the gift of the lynching, but he was not recorded the "honor" of being accused but whose name failed him. He was recorded the "honor" of being accused and of their two assistants. I have furnished him with the names of the three men who did act as executors and of their two assistants. I have furnished him with the names of the members of the mobs telling the governor in detail of the part played by the three men. I have furnished him with the names of 11 other persons who were very involved in the lynching but who did not actively participate in it. List includes besides the sheriff and his deputies so-called law-enforcement officers, prominent business men and three men reimbursed for the cost of at least one member of the grand jury investigating the lynching. I also mention the four white men and one colored man incarcerated in the Alton jail on the sight of the lynching, and the Bertha Lownham from her cell and turn her over to the mob. I have also mentioned the man himself with the names and adresses of most influential and re-committed (Continued on Material Page.) MEMPHIS, TENN. INSURANCE MEN VISIT HOUSTON Dr. J. E. Walker, Memphis, Tenn., president of the Universal Life Insurance Company, and Hon. M. S. Steart, for many years general manager of the Universal Life Insurance Company, which recently merged with the Universal, were Houston visitors during the week-end, visiting the local hospital, the nursing school, the aging, and holding conferences with the force of nature. Dr. J. E. Walker ranks as one of the most successful practitioners in Tennessee, and is a business man of rare attaining. He was the chairman of the storization of the Mississippi Life to the race. Dr. J. E. Walker, who engineered the deal restoring the Mississippi Life to the race, was the executive summary authority of the first magnitude, is a pleasing talker, able writer and a business man of no mean qualification. These visitors were taken to the Odd Fellow Temple last Saturday night, where they were offered an opportunity to experience the business and professional men. Both state that prospects are bright for life due to the merger and restoration of the agency force has taken on new life due to the merger and restoration of the agency force. Their present literary will carry them to every district where their INFORMER EDITOR GIVEN STAG PARTY BY JAMES T. EWING While Halloween merrymakers and miscreants were holding high revelry under the cover of a sombre October sky, a few invited friends gathered at the same time. The event was a special event, and James T. Ewing, 1412 Cleveland, last Saturday night, and enjoyed a stag that broke all previous records and established a high mark at which similars were played. The event was also the future. The occasion was the natal day of Editor C. F. Richardson of The Informer, and the honored guest was literally taken off his feet by the guest. He was an American and was an affair, which was enlivened by the presence of W. E. Jackson of Kansas City, Kan. Dr. J. E. Walker, M. S. Stuart and Mr. Hightower of Memphis, Tennessee. The event was also the first of the National Benefit Life Insurance Company appointed himself master of ceremonies and appointed H. P. ("Horse-Power") Carter of the Standard Life Insurance Company. He was the first of the occasion. In one of his characteristic speeches, Mr. Carter presented Mr. Richardson with a surprise gift, a beautiful half-hourly diary, and a beautiful half-hourly diary of sons: C. C. Stuart, Hobart Taylor, Alphonse Mills, H. P. Carter and S. B. Williams. Though literally swept off his feet with the gift, Mr. Richardson was not only a guest but also a pressed his appreciation both to the donors of the gift, to Mr. and Mrs. Ewing (host and hostess, respectively) and the friends who had made possible the gift. Dr. Walker and Mr. Stuart, two out-of-town guests, made brief talks and lauded The Informer editor for the stand he has consistently taken for the event. He was also the first to say that "the race can not pay too much honor to such a man as Editor Rich-edson." Sandwiches of all kinds, imported H. P. and Turkish cigarettes and liquid refreshments in superabundance were consumed by the bunch, with games and jokes thrown in for good measure; and all departed reluctantly expressed their support for the event. Some to an end, thanking the host and hostess for the stag, wishing the guest of honor many more years and birthdays, but disappointed that the age of the honored guest was Assisting Mrs. Ewing in the serving role were Meadows Joseph Polk and C. F. Richardson. FORMER HOUSTONIAN HERE LAST SATURDAY W. E.

O MONS had been taken. Ramigines, a few kilometers east, had fallen to the advancing Canadians the day before. It was ten o'clock in the morning. Troupe were moving through on their way to the water. They were under way. Parallel roads covered with marching columns. Then—and suddenly, unexpectedly—there came the water. It was terrifying about this order. Officers stood talking excitedly in little groups along the road. Several staff automobiles were on their way to corps headquarters. The hait was long. It became longer, the boy has grown up to be in the time of fighting before he something had stopped the movement of that splendid fighting machine, the Dispatch Rider's News. Just outside the little town of Hammamis a group of Canadian soldiers watched a high-powered motorcycle come leaping down the road from the hill. They had come the battle of sharp and continuous firing. The big guns had been silent since ten o'clock. The dispatch was upended so upward that a slow uped so upward to shoot: "It's all over, fellows," and sped on. His words dispersed all double as to the tumors that had been growing. Two soldiers detached themselves from the party and went to the old house, where the edifice still stood, but the roof had been damaged and was partly gone. Walking up to the altar, the figure of Jesus was visible. Notice only his lips moved as he gaved upward to the broken windows through which a pale sunlight made him. He was one of the clerics who took the advice of Cardinal Mercier and had stared with his fock to support them in the time of enemy fire. - Bearing Good Tidings. As the soldiers approached, one tapped on the shoulder and told him: "La guerrera est fin!" The old soldier laughed and had on and on his breast a medal. He had fought for France in 1870, as he told the soldiers later, and had put on a medal. He drew up the enemy the previous day. "La guerrera est fin!" He repeated the words as in a dream. Then came the soldiers from far away, the two soldiers from far away, the cure climbed the winding stairway to the church tower. He will announce to the villages and towns of Belgium that they are liberated and that the Boche has gone. he said. The old man gripped the rope. Then the old first peal of the bells of peace when the two soldiers heaved with all their might, below filled with people. The old cure looked down and motioned with his hands to the parishioners to come close up, for them to listen to take part in a ceremony of ringing the bells of peace in France and Belgium. The bells of the Belfairs. And then came the answer—first in the betrayry. And just when the old cure came the glad tides, later the new cure, the everywhere pealing, farther than we could hear, for in that hour all the bells of Belgium and France, as far as the Spanish border, had taken up the Canadians went down with the cure. Others had taken over the task in the betrayry. And just when the old cure came the glad tides, later the whole civilians—had gathered in a great happy throng, there sounded a wild cry, a wonderful about of victory. Through their eyes, along came a song along a song called a Canadian cavalry, whipping it up in true cowboy style. Through their tears the old cure stood looking on.

"Amritsar day should be a day of replacing and Thanksgiving, and the patriotic colors. The boys who were wearing khaki have not forgotten the greatest gifts they gave them on their return.

For daytime use, the cream is a trade mark of "Golden Brown" under which all of Madame Mamie Hightower's creams are sold. If your composition is worth preserving or if you want to restore the bloom of these creams, you should use three of these creams and use them according to directions as many of our stage of stage creams as you need. Cold Cream should be applied at night, rubbing a liberal portion over the face and neck. Valet AutoStrop Razor —Sharpens Itself Weak Back Strengthened Quickly Benefits Beg in As Soon As Red Cross Plaster Is Applied If it hurts your back to lift a heavy object, if you have strained the back muscles, if a "cold has settled in your back," or if you suffer from lambago, put on a Red Cross Kidney Plaster and you will get blessed, comforting relief almost at once. There are many reasons for this remarkable result. The plaster gives the support needed by the weakened, sore muscles. It provides a continuous automatic massage with every movement of the body, thus relieving congestion and stimulating circulation in the affected tissues. But perhaps the most important benefit is derived from the marvelous medication in the Red Cross Plaster which is absorbed through the skin and goes directly to the weak, sore, lame muscles, quieting the pain and relieving the irritated nerves, and restoring the free use of the muscles necessary to bring back your normal strength. Be sure to ask for Johnson's Red Cross Kidney Plaster with the red channel back and you will get the greatest benefit in the quickest time. At all drug stores.

Jericho was the key to the land of Chann. A signal victory here would mean the death of young people. L failure would mean里例 rierable rille. Jericho Shut up (v. 1,3). Jericho Shut up felt secure because Jericho was strongly fortified from the south. Approach to the city from the east was not thought of as the city of Jericho greatly alarmed by the miraculous crossing of the Jordan by the Israelites and their surrounding the city of Jericho greatly alarmed when out and none came in." 1. God's promise to Jericho (v. 2). 2. have given into thine heart Jericho's promise to the mighty men of valour." Because of this promise from the Lord their faith was strengthened. 4. God's instructions (v. 8, 10). They were to encompass the people with seven priests bearing trumpets that were to be placed in the Divine Presence, went before the people. They encompassed the people once a day for six days and on the seventh day for six days. When the last circuit was made, the priests were to give a long sermon, and the people were to shout with a great shout and the walls of Jeburec were to fall down. 11. The Obedience of the People They advanced according to the directions of their leader, for they were going forth according to the command of the Lord. To the natural eye the means employed were very inadequate, even foolish. If they had looked at the inadequacy of the means in themselves, they no doubt would have faltered, but they believed that He who had given the orders would fight for them. Joshua and his people set out at once to obey the divine directions. The people marched around the city every day for six days. This, no doubt, was very trying to their faith. There was absolutely no connection between the means and the end. Perhaps as the days wore wearily away the whole affair became monotonous. Even at the end of the sixth day there was no change. Doubtless the people on the walls of the city used this unseemly behavior as an occasion of great merriment and ridicule. Even at the end of the sixth round on the seventh day there was no change. Yes, the seventh round brought no change until the very last moment. At the mighty shout, accompanied with the blowing of trumpets, the walls came tumbling down. This is the way of all works accomplished by faith. At the time when everything seems against us, faith holds on and wins the victory. 111. The Fall of Jericho (vv. 17-20). At the end of the seventh round having been made of the seventh round, Jericho was about a shout. As the walls clammed down, the Israelites clambered over them, slaying men, women and children, saving the gold, silver, brass and iron which were to be saved for the treasury of the Lord. However, Ra's army succeeded in saving them, according to the promise of the spies. This wonderful deliverance was calculated to inspire the people with courage, and how God could fight for them and deliver them from their enemies. Also, it would strike terror in the hearts of the people, and Trumpets and shouting of that day with its great victory is typical of the greater day when larger victories shall be won by the Almighty for His people. He will be struck into the hearts of the enemies of God's people (I Thess. 4:10, 17). 111. This whole lesson that spiritual victories are won upon principles and by means which are not sufficient in themselves. According to this lesson, an utter foolishness is in utter foolishness (I Cor. 1:17-20). The Living Trees Living trees are always shedding something in order to produce more. The Bible Leads Judge the Bible by the influence that it has had upon the lives of men, and it wins first place with all other books tried in the Church. The Christian A Christian, when he makes a good profession, should be sure to make his profession good. On God's Side Stand on God's side and He will stand by your sides in time of need.

It does not explain the relatively long duration of the thunder; this duration is owing mainly to the facts (1) that the several parts of a snake can move at the rate of sound from the observer, and (2) that sound travels at the rate of about a mile in five seconds, part to sound reflections, or echoes.

'SEVENTH HEAVEN' BOOKED AT PALACE DURING NEXT WEEK 'SEVENTH HEAVEN' BOOKED AT PALACE DURING NEXT WEEK Seventh Heaven, which will be presented by the Palace Players at the Palace Theatre for one week, starting Sunday, November 7, ranks second only to "Lightning." In the list of John's players, he enjoyed a regular activity for two years it packed the Booth Theatre, which record surpassed even "Three Wise Fools," which was written by Austin Strong, who is also the author of "Seventh Heaven." As a playwriter, the former elements that have made friends for the Golden plays, "Seventh Heaven" has thrills and heart throbs reminiscent of "Madame X" and "The Two Orphans." Depicting situations in the slums of "Paris with a seven star," the which is the first was her, the abhorth addict and a terror-stricken girl splendid portrayed, the love drama is intensely human. The presentation of the under-side of life in the gay metropolis of the continent is pictured as it never has been seen. Instead of the too realistic, the play gives a fr�her and cleaner part of the loves of those who never had a chance in this world. And it sends one home, feeling the happier for having seen it. The four play presented by the Palace Players this season have been comedies, this being the first serious drama to be produced and patrons are looking forward eagerly to this engagement in order that they may see their favorite in serious roles. June Billing and Dorothy Beardale have the leading parts in this drama of the World War. SMITH HOUSTON VISITOR. W. C.

Lynchers-- (Continued from Page Gue) spectacle white citizens of the community who will testify to the correctness of the fence set forth, if the governor will endorse it from the vengeance of the klan and the lychers. Attempt to Stage Race Riot. "Following the lynching an attempt was made to stage a race riot to cover the� kilt, the king of the city was to be held in the kilt, and around Aikon saying the Negroes were armed and were going to 'rise in the night and kill all the white people'. The same tactics were used as in the famous Phillips County, Arkansas, riots of 1919, which the N. A. A. C. P. exposed. Fortunately this dastardly attempt did not succeed." “I learned that the inevitable aftermath of klan activities is now being seen in South Carolina. The element of membership which acted as a restraining influence in the klan and which entered the movement believing it to be a law-enforcement body. It is clear that it has largely changed the American klan�s and the hands of murderers, bootleggers, operators of stills and other criminals. As I have said the law-abiding element of whites are living in a state of constant terror and indeed are more afraid of the klan and of the lower order of whites than are Negroes. White Men Armed Against Klan. "In the home of one white man, former a high-office of the country and who lived when he found out the nature of the movement, he showed me an automatic pistol which he carried in his trousers pocket and a 38 calibre revolver in a holster. He told me that if he went only across the road in front of his house after nightfall, a distance of some 75 feet he straddled on his person, in addition to a strive of belt and two 40 calibres army revolvers." "This man showed me a collection of 30 guns including rifles, shotguns and a rifle, all of which he home for self-protection. For four years the members of the Alkmaar from the city attempted to kill him. The later Sharer son and the present deputy sheriff were all expelled from the Alkmaar some months later. The sheriff klamman." But they were later admitted. On the anniversary of the killing, he held a celebration at his grave in the Granville Cemetery at which, as at least 1,400 persons, many of them over 1,000 persons, many of them with free lunch and lemonade and listened to slogans of the late sheriff. The State Supreme Court was deliberating on the appeal for a new trial for "This makes the 41st lynching have investigated, besides eight race the depravity, barbarity, and terror of the white men." One of the white men with whom talked and who gave me much insight, the shoulder as I was leaving and said, "Mr. White, work into your story the first time you see the seven weeks a group of white people has not met in my house every night of the state be sent to open up this world the terrible state of african America. You the answer to that prayer." GOLDEN EAGLES HELD 'Y' ELEVEN IN 6-6 DEADLOCK Playing on a field more suitable for water polo than football, the light and untried football eleven of the Colored High School held the heavier Y M. C. A. A. team, composed chiefly of former high stars, to a 6-6 score at Scott Street Park last Saturday. Both teams scored in the first quarter, the falling to add the point after touchdown, and the high being penalized and denied. The chance because a stintle player violated the rule by giving signals before any play had been made after he had been injected into the fray. The field was literally submerged in water, which slowed up the players, yet both teams reeled off some snappy football, reflecting credit upon Coaches. G. Lockett of the high and J. Johnson of the Y. Coach Lockett has wrought well with his material, his 1925 team having been born asunder by graduations and the opening of Jack Yates Colored High. Among the outstanding players were: Cornelius ("Sunshine") Harris, Jerome Busby, D. C. Brown, George ("Skeeter") Rainey, Shelton Mason and Charles Harris for the high; John Gray, Barnett Williams and Milton Kits for the Y. The teams were well officiated by the following: H. P. Carter, (Knoxville) referee; Hobart Thomas (Bishop), unprecieved; William Robinson (Houston), head linesman.

What's in a name?

HOUSTON, TEXAS, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 6, 1926 Well, lolks, that lintype operator is often referred to Mr. O. P. DeWal as a poisoned "dinemine harm," when it should be used. The lintype operator is trying to get in bad, or murdered one. Lots of differences between "harm" and "charm." THE INFORMER'S POSITION STRENGTHENED. In essaying to answer The Informer's recent attitude regarding the Houston Nrg Hospital, particularly as it relates to a current issue, Mr. B. Grigsby wrote: ("Constant Noise") Love, editor of a local "weekly sheet" and the one person whose membership on said hospital board is one of the main reasons for the cold reception now being accorded this move. Mr. B. Grigsby wrote: "The patient's unfitness for the position by his veiled attack and criticism of James B. Grigsby, and the slur made anent H. P. Carter and R. B. Grigsby, resident and secretary-treasurer, respectively, of the Union Hospital." If Love is retained on the Houston Negro Hospital board of directors, not only is it probable that Mr. Griggs will refuse to contribute one cent to the hospital movement, but there is a likelihood that Mr. Griggs's business associates and friends will do likewise; for truly this recent thrust of Love at Mr. Griggs, as well as the recent thrust of Love at Mr. Griggs, will all "and will act as a boomerang upon the hospital undertaking, from the race's viewpoint, as long as Love is connected officially with this institution! Have you found your gate, porch, swing or of pots or ferns? Both younin' and you'er, Detective Ed Jones and Charles Stewart, who recently engaged in running a police station in Californias are called on the race of Bill Run. Well, the race of fences landed their man all right and they were officials, officer record as palettes officers. In commenting on The Informer's mention of a donation of $40,000 to the University of Texas four consecutive years, Love publicly declares in his sheet, in so many words, that Mr. Griggsby's "public promises" are not worth the paper they are written on, the breath he employed to make ATHLETICS AND GOOD SPORTSMANSHIP. Group of Antoch members discussing the listig of the membership for a financial drive. Some benemotion "no 'the Wires' are on their list." According to recent news dispatches, some of our Texas white people demonstrated very poor sportmanship last Saturday, for news items chroniced the fact that a mob of football fans at Orange literally mobbed the football players of a Houston high eleven, along with the Magnolia City rooters who accompanied the team to said city, after the Houston entry had copped the game and eliminated the Orange team from district honors. The team's loss to the Houston college was fatally injured in a melee during halves in the football set-to between Baylor University and A. and M.

P. blackenhill In other words, instead of congratulating and commending Mr. Gigaby, he should have done the same, this time, done, this board member uses his sheet to broadcast to the reading world that Mr. Gigaby was “merely shooting off and showing his pride,” a reputation for not backing up his public promises with copy of the reading world. Miss Iva Howard, vice president, Mina Barber, former Oregon Barber. She returns from daily deposit. She knows the barber business from alpha to omega. Not knowing Mr. Griggsy and his many benefactions and good turns done our race, community and society, one would readily conclude, after reading Love's fulmination and iniminations, that Mr. Love is like a dollar with a hole in it or an airplane—no good on earth. It is to be deplored that high school and college athletics among the students are not represented in demonstrations are the vogues, and human life is regarded as a light vein; while the supporters and adherents of losing teams and teams of the gridiron game can not be good sports and take a hard line. Two former, business partners to Gather, T. M. Farechkil and W. E. Gather, T. M. Farechkil and W. E. Western University at Quindua, Kan "Jack" was formerly in the tailoring industry. He was born in the state to bury his father at Vieira Spent, bury day meeting and Vieira Spent, bury day meeting. Just such veiled attacks as this on some of the leading members of his race, is the cause of the widespread objection on the part of colored citizens of Houston to Love holding even an honorary position on the new hospital board. It does not require much self-restraint to celebrate a victory. It takes real honesty-to-goodies sportmanship and a big heart to know how to act in the face of defeat, how to take defeat and how to accord the winning side the consideration and honor due win. After Love's little, mean and underhand attack on Mr. Griggsy in last week's issue of his sheet, we wonder if Mr. Griggsy will feel disposed to donate $1,000 or even $1 to this institution, as Love is. Love is identified officially with the hospital board of directors? The building pessimists say that the children don't need to be beautiful, why doesn't it run on him! Speaking of a family in its nethings, the children are the baby garlic so that they can eat it. Whenever education fails to develop this side of the students' life, then education has made a dismal failure, and it is time to abolish athletics in our institutions of learning, whether public, denominational or state schools. In its two previous editorials on the hospital situation, The Informer had consistently refused to call any names, but merely asked who was taking who the objectionable board member was or is; and, as was to be expected, the guilty jury let out a yelp of the species for which he is noted far and near, and following his customary rules, he was asked to answer. Some of the leading members of his race—men who have contributed much in time, energy and money to keep open the doors of the Union Hospital, and support and assist every laudable racial justice. Rev. J. H. Smith, Wesley Chapel pastor, busy helping money for church building fund. Their first unit looks mighty good at Dweb and Web The primary idea of athletics and sports in public schools and colleges is to teach the young people how to play the game fairly and honestly; how to co-ordinate their forces and engage in teamplay; how to respect both leadership and authority; how to get the proper perspective on life (which is a game, and a hard one, too, from the cradle to the grave); how to conduct and deport athletes; how to conduct their life on defeat, and to at all times act so as to reflect the results of their educational training and athletic development. MT. CORINTH BAPTIST REV. A. HUBBARD, Pastor. Supt. Rhodes and his staff of teachers were at their Sunday School post Sunday at 9:30 a.m.; lesson very interesting; good attendance. At 11:30 a.m. Rev. H. R. Johnson preached a short, spicy sermon on "Christ On Trial," enjoyed by all. Several visitors present. Prof. N. Dudley, Jr., made a fine talk. At 3:30 p.m. the mission sisters rendered a very interesting program. At 5:30 p.m. B.Y.P.U. held its usual program. At 7:30 our pastor delivered a burning message for the sisters from the text, "Repent ye, for the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand." "Our hearts were made glad Mrs. M. McCain is on the sick list. Don't forget the prayer meeting every Tuesday night.—Reporter There is no member of our race in Houston who has made as many contributions to the city as young people. Griffey; and to think that a member of the hospital board of directors would employ his sheet in a vain and futile effort to discredit such a public-spirited man, is beyond humility. In this connection, for the good of athletic contests between opposing team, it is incumbent upon their supporters and rooters to win the contest. In this context, sportsmanship as the contesting players; for it is not a mark not indication of real college spirit or proper home training for either players or rooters to lose their heads in the face of defeat or victory and perpetrate physical violence upon opposing players and rooters. If Mr. Grigsby's word or promise is not worth a "tinker's damn," as Love infers and insinuates in his folder, how did he (Mr. Grigsby) obtain such a high business rating in this community, and how has he been able to accumulate so much in material things? Well, sir, the longer you live, the more you learn; for, despite the fact that the editor of The Informer has known Mr. Grigsby for fifteen years, and has been rather closely associated with him during the last six or seven years, this is the first public charge or insinuation we have ever seen made against Mr. Grigsby that his "public promises" are nothing more or less than "hot air" and "bull!" If our young people can not be taught in our public schools, colleges and universities the spirit of fair play, and if they can not be restrained from acts of disorder and destruction when intoxicated, we must be able to prevent such lacking in one of its fundamental and elemental prerequisites. BIRTHDAY PARTY AT EDWARDS RESIDENCE; WIFE HONORS HUBRY In neither school athletics nor life can one hope to win on every occasion, for even life is a game of give and take—more often taking than giving. and our young people need to be instructed in how to give and touching upon this particular phase of college and every day life. When Love states in his "weakly sheet" that The Informer, through its editor, "is making an underhand fight on both the hospital and its board of directors," he is either parsimonious with veracity, or unacquainted and unfamiliar with common English. An interesting event of the past week was the birthday party of Harvey P. Plummer, his wife. The home was beautifully decorated with home cut flowers, with a large table being played while some included a whist. James Ladd, being the lucky one for holding the highest points, was the host. Mrs. S. M. Collin and Mrs. Taylor Pilder were awarded the boozy However, The Informer is not surprised at such a mobocratic demonstration as the one staged against the Houston high eleven in 2005. The informer has been accused of one of the most lawless and heathenish communities in Texas for, when mobbists will lynch and kill people because the courts of justice do not give verdicts in keeping with the mobbists' idea, beaten up and practiced when their favorite team is beaten in an athletic content. Love (what's in a name!) takes umbrage because the Informer stated that Messrs. Carter and Isaacs should have been considered in the appointment of the new board; and this paper still holds to the idea that the Union Hospital institution more support, moral and financial, than Love, despite the latter's record," which he often cites through the columns of his anti-race sheet! As for Messrs. Carter and Grigsby, when notes amounting to $3000 were past and pressing the Union Hospital and foreclosed on the property, they were these men left their offices, got in Mr. Grigsby's car, drove around the city and raised every cent of this money from members of our race, and saved the Union Hospital to the race, city and society. Mr. Grigsby also paid his $110, but his chief newspaper critic does not seem to be listed as having contributed one red pen when he was the president, because he is just part of the record! (Please stick a pin here, dear readers!) According to newspaper reports, the Orange mobbists not only attacked and assaulted the Houston gridders and rooters, but they also hurled missiles through the windows of the passenger coaches their best to fatally injure both Houston players and supporters. After the games over a very long time, the food, the hostess and hostess showing that the know how to serve. Everybody left with a birthday would come more often and the hostess would come more often.

Colls, Misses: Misses: Jeffress, Lee McCounciar, Claremur In this connection, not without gloating nor bragging. The Informer is delighted to observe that no such unsportsmanlike "stunt" has ever been staged in Texas in connection with either a high school or college football game, or any other kind of athletic training that colored schools; which shows that our group, despite all that has been said to the contrary, is not so lawless and "inferior" after all. If there existed any doubt as to Love's fitness to serve on the Houston Nrgro Hospital board, and if some were of the opinion that The Informer's attitude was actuated by selfmits adversary and ulterior purposes, certainly Love's "dirty" attack on Mr. Grigaby for his "public promise" of $1,000, shows that The Informer was and is right in demanding that Love be ousted from the hospital CIMBEE'S RAMBLINGS Deer Gus: Has yu heered erbout de po' farmers is dun razed er grate big crop er cottun, bigger den ever befo', an' now dem eastern crooks is dun run de price way down 'blow nuthin'?
