The teachers themselves and their city to us by the old-fashioned Southern hospitality and corner of the palatial and imposing Evans home. Mr. Evans is a wife and husband is known throughout Texas and the nation for his principally educational background. Mr. Evans enjoys a nice law practice in Waco, and has the respect of both the law firm and the dental surgeon.

The Colored Teachers' State Association was very largely attended, especially by men of the college, who regarded lodging, meals, etc., which is another feather in the cap of the college. The college is rich in vitality and entertainment, what Waco lacks in numbers makes up in the most outstanding address of the association, excluding the wonderfully talented men of the college.

In laying down his premise this uninvestigated educator asserted that he would differ in degree but not in kind. He enumerated the various wants of the college men, and he urged the men to work between the highest point and lowest base in their wants, and he urged the men to charge their charge that they (the pupils) would ever strive to attain the highest THE HOUSTON INFORMER M.

In order to grasp the matter contained in the lesson subject, there needed to be a book of Ruth. The lesson text which is to be printed has been contained in the first chapter, verses 14-22. A connection with Naomi (1:1-10). On account of famine in Bethlehem of Judah, Naomi with her husband went to the Moab. After the death of her husband two her sons married Moabian women. After a time her sons died also. Naomi moved to return to her household, having heard that the Lord had visited his people in giving them bread. They only got into more. It was not until Naomi was than chanted that she resolved to return. One purpose of God’s gift was to return. Naomi had the good sense to recognize that the hand of the Lord was upon her for good. When Naomi returned and Orgh accompanied her for a distance. This she permitted but determined to place before them frankness and Orgh would necessarily confront them. II. Hutte's Noble Choices (1:16-18). Much as Namiol loved her daughter-in-law, she was not content to live in this matter blindly. She wished them to know the sorrowfulness of their undertaking. She told them the worst case of their situation, the cought ought to be carried out by us in all our relations in life. In this respect Jeans is our supreme example. We chance to unry again. Namiol was not so fond of whom she could wait. In that day to be unmarried was the greatest disgrace. Society differed in how they cared for a woman open by which a woman could earn her living and be independent. Furthermore, it was against God's law that a married woman out of their own people. 2. She found human friends (ch. 2). As she went to glen in the field she met a man of wealth and grace. The servants of Bona treated her with care. 3. A good husband and a happy home (ch. 3, 4). She gave a humbain, but a man of God who had an abundance of this world's goods. 4. She was in the irreligious nation (ch. 1:57-17). She had to shear her own people she became a one of a mother. 5. She became a link in the chain of Christ's ancestry (4:18-22); of Christ's own will for him. She one who fully decides for Christ and gives up him for will she and in the world to come eternal.

HOUSTON, TEXAS, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 4, 1926 AUSTIN HIGH ELEVEN PLAYS HERE SATURDAY AGAINST COLORED INTER-RACIAL RELATIONS IMPROVED AT WACO! A few years back the mere mention of the name Waco, Texas, brought to one's mind the one city in the Lone Star State where the mobs held sway and where any black man was in imminent danger of not only being lynched by a gang of mobocratic hoodlums, but having his lifeless body dragged about the streets of the city and his corpse burned on the public square! Football fans of Houston will have a chance to see the fast eleven of the Anderson Hugh of Austin in a gridiron battle with Houston Colored High at West End Park, Saturday, December 4. The game will begin as So many of the mobocratic orgies and lynching bees did Waco stage that the city received the sobriquet of "Barbecueville," and colored Americans, both in Texas and other states, were even afraid to pass through Waco for fear that they would be ejected from the train or taken forcibly from their automobiles and treated to a dose of the celebrated Waco brand of mob-violence. Coach R. G. LOCKET of the Golden Gobble is busy drilling his local prowess in the field. The local supporters are expecting much more from the local high school in Saturday's game. Moreover, many of Waco's best and most substantial colored citizens, tiring of the city's mobocratic record and the constant menace of Judge Lynch, disposed of their property and removed to more civilized communities. TO AWARD WINNER TROPHY. J. T. Johnson, district manager for the school district, said that his company will award a silver loving gift to the winner of the foot of the basketball court. Jack Yates, to be played Christmas Day, will receive the gift. Finally, when the mob burned the corpse of a colored youth, slain innocently by an enraged white father for an alleged attack upon his daughter, the law-bawning members of both races conferred and decided that Waco would not be disgraced again by the police. The progress has been made in stamping out this hydra-headed monster, which ought not damage to this prosperous little city on the Brazos. YOUNG WOMAN BURIED FROM BETHEL CHURCH; WAS ON USHER BOARD The editor of The Informer, having visited Waco several times in the last few years (having attended the College Teachers' State Association there last week), has noted with much pleasure that the team of students now existing between the colored and white races in that city. The funeral of Mrs. Amanda Davis, who passed away Wednesday, November 24, at the home of her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Amanda Davis, was held from Belted Baptist Church, of which deceased was a memorial. The oraloration was delivered by Pastor J. R. Burdette, with brief enclosures by Dr. and Mrs. Burdette, Church, and R. L. Jones of Antioch. A very appropriate program was remanDED for the funeral of the funeral Daniel and Phillips University was in charge of funeral arrangements. Interment took place in Olive When the grand lodge of the Colored Knights of Pythias was held in Waco, during June, 1925, the city was virtually turned into a military base, under the command of mayor, but the city commissioners and chief of police attended the public welcome program, and extended the keys of the city to the visitors. Not only the city, but when the Pythias staged their big street parade with the principal thoroughfares of that city, all the militia was halted during the parade's progress, and the white citizens, packed and jammed on the sidewalks along the line of march, were as liberal and profuse in their applause as the colored citizens, packed and jammed on the city devoted much space to the doings of the grand session. Prior to her illness which finally took place, she was a member of the usher board for several years. She had a host of friends who were usheres, and she knew her. She is raised by parents, husband, son, sister and other relatives. During the recent session of the Colored Teachers' State Association, the mayor not only came out to welcome the visitors at the opening public program, but the football game played at Jackson Field, Paul Quinn College, between Samuel Huston Dragons and the Tigers on Thanksgiving Day, was witnessed by the largest and most enthusiastic ever attended a colored cridon combat in the history of Texas. CARTER GUEST WILEY CHAPTER H. P. Carter, local insurance man bastion of the Palm, chapter 10, Chapua Gregory, local insurance man, Wylie-Prairie Vole football game in Marchall November 18, was highly involved in the game. Omega fraternity while there. James Gion is goness of his wife the Wilco Col- lege, Omega fraternity. Mr. Carter prodicts that chap- ter will soon be organized in other schools. After the section reserved for white spectators and rooters had been filled to overflowing, they freely took seats in the grandstand with colored spectators and also occupied sideline seats because of their color. The staff employed to mark off or divide the two races, and not a cross word was spoken nor was any white person contaminated due to his or her close proximity to a colored spectator. The staff were all third-quarters of the spectators, were some of the leading white citizens of Waco and McLennan County, including city and county officials, chief of police, commercial, business and social leaders; young men and women; and all—rooters and pulling for their home team Paul Quinn College. ROCKDALE HAPPENINGS Rockalee, Texas—Some Rockalee teachers attended the State Teachers Association at Waco, last week; they were among the 100 who attended the association. Among those attending were: Miss Inez Scott, Birdie Phillip, and Prof. Shankles. The rally was in Springfield Baptist Church, the pastor, was a financial success. It was an inspiring and reassuring spectacle, and truly marked a new day in the history of Waco, particularly as it relates to the relations between the two races in that community. Here is one Southern city that has undergone an almost complete transformation, and where the mob formerly vented its anger upon defenseless and helpless colored Americans, a spirit of tolerance and racial animity is very manifest, and no mobocratic disorder has been registered in this North Texas city in several years. LOCAL CHORAL CLUB TO SING AT WHITE CHURCH Consequently, both races are living in peace and harmony, and neither the colored citizens nor visitors to Waco stand in constant fear of being stunted up by a crowd of holohus and given a dose of the famous American concoction, lynch-law. The Coleridge-Taylor Choral Club, ranked as one of the foremost adoring choirs in the country, will appear in a benefit program at the Main and Drew, Friday (tonight), 8:00 p.m. The net proceeds from the program will be donated to the Pritzker-Pribran Christian Church (colored), Rev. What Waco has done in this respect can be duplicated in other Southern communities, if the leading white citizens will simply demonstrate a bit of courage and Christianity, take a determined stance, and be willing to sacrifice and his devices from their corporate and community confines. BISHOP ELEVEN EASY MEAT FOR WILEY MACHINE BISHOP ELEVEN EASY MEAT FOR WILEY MACHINE Marshall, Texas—Aa the curtain was lowering on the 1922 football game, when the University fordence Thanksgiving Day, brilliant flashes of old time courage and determination battle where the Wiley Wildcats were engaged in the final struggle of the game. The team, the Bishop Bear; and a sort of pang because of what might have been in place, once mingled with the joy of what was happened to serve to induce a phobia of the wires and wherefore. There was a team whose goal line had not been crossed by a conference team and whose goal line had been scored in five games with 94 points on its own credit, could come The outstandable players in the in-game Rowsie play a key role in the Rowsie play and Aleksei Tlechko Hannah who fought valently to present a complete routing of their team in the Bishop by so large a score in all its football history. The day was严寒, the weather never turned the ball in its long-puncted course. More than two hours of play ended up and down the slide lines as the teams fought back and forth between the defense and offense. Theference classic is becoming so wide spread that efforts be made to match the grounds next year in order to provide suitable and simple accommodation. Y. W. C. A.
