We are laboring under a handicap being right over the traffic cork's spiral mobile and motor bus traffic. When we inform one who has visited the Grand Boulevard, he or she will readily recognize the fact that we are sitting in the world. Cars of every make and description are constantly speeding past us in the Texas Pythian delegation, the former—formally an exclusive white hotel—being located Dr. R. T. Hamilton and Prof. John Dr. R.

We shall not attempt to cover the session, but we will attend it in the current issue by the usual news release sent out by the Associated Press way.

Thursday afternoon at Sportsman Park, when the Corsairs 2-1, being opposed by Airdge and Milijus a former Houston playmaker, pitched in the reffered game, seventh frame, when he smashed a wrinkle drive into the right field position of Frankie Friedhe "the Fordham Flash" now guarding the Cardinals' keystone Texas product—ahead of him. These two scores won the game. Friedhe and Bottomley's wallop followed. Saturday afternoon we saw the Chicago Cubs take the game against the Cincinnati Fools, the game against a team of the Cubs and Jackie May of the Reds. This was also a contest in management, with the Cubs evincing victories over Manager Hendricks of the Reds, when Seasoned Runs of the Cubs came in after May had been ordered to pass Fletcher Stephenon to retake the Reds. This writer has been to Chicago several times, but today (Saturday) he came on it before. Leaving the South side on an express express train, it took him 10 minutes to reach Wrigley Field on the North Side, and after the game it took it to dush over the streets, particularly in Chicago) fully 50 minutes to get up back to the apartment of our brother, at 847 East 46th Place.

Our son, Leon, who is making his own out of Texas, is cognitively alert.

Syphilis Death Rate Among the colored males, the upbringing was much more pronounced than for the whites, and although the same declining tendency was shown for 1818 to 1840, the number of years subsequent to 1919 has been more marked, with the death rate higher. The improvement in the syphilis rate in 1917 is believed to be due to the movement to control venereal diseases, the training of soldiers among soldiers, sailors and civilians. After the war, state and municipal health services, the American public health service, and the American Social Hygiene Association have increased prevention before the public At Philadelphia colored people have the right idea and if they persist in their efforts, they will be cut down.

African books of laws are astounding for their ingenuity in getting results. In our civilization a small mailbox of them can cap a small mailbox of them. Africa, the magpie box and the criminal's family are held responsible for the punishment is swift and certain. Tribes frown on prolonged litigation. Africans are more honest than the Americans, leave bit vegetable wagon outside the town and go on and pass the night when he returns the next morning to treat with anything left upon our pathways, in the cases of cars, the body completely wrecked.

Of all the girls I ever saw—wave my, you prune it" and on so while the amused young girl in the club shouted, "Cleveland Plain Fine." Two White House "Fronts" There are two fronts to the Executive mansion. In the days when the White House was built, the mansion was built at homes, especially in the South were built with two "fronts" wherever it was possible to locate them near a river or a land front, and the land front, are found in many descriptions of colonial houses. In the mansion where the front is located, the floor covered much closer to the White house than it does today. The building was built in the early 19th century, a river front as well as a land front. Cloture and Closure Closure is a method of closing de- cline upon a subject in a declarative form. It is used when the subject is at a specified time. It was first in reduced in the British home of com- panies in 1882 and it was then called "closing." The French word later "cloose" become the more common name for this method of ending a closing sentence, but now there seems to be a tendency to go back to the French word "cloe" to have the same meaning - Patheline. Journalist Defined A good journalist is one who can win, the material for a narrative to marvel at. He must be able to tell what he can avoid it; who, is widely formed, but insists the limits of his knowledge, and who insists his opinions, but resembles in forming them; and who seeks to write to those who are not familiar with him, rather than insure their institution than their influence—Ladbroke Jnr. Getting Things Straight The sentence: "All men are born free and equal" is a quotation from the Bible that was framed in 1770. The complete sentence says: "All men are born free and equal." The word "essential," an essential, and unallatable right? Many people erroneously suppose the word "essential" in the Declaration of Independence. That document says "all men are free and equal."

That man was not a reach of David for being not a reach of David for being not a war. The enemies of the Lord must of necessity be put down. No peace must be made. That man was not a reach of the ensembles were subdued. It showed, rather that David had done his work and that the time had now come for 2. The time and circumstances were not fully ripe. God himself was a great house, that would require a man's best energies to build it. The nation's treasury was no doubt depleted by the warz. Since much money was necessary to enable the people to accumulate funds. 11. The Lord Pledged Himself to Dares Than David Proposed (v. 8-10). 12. He gave a have a great name (v. 8). 13. His name has gone down in history as one of the great men of the earth. It was a kag way from herding his father's kag from the thrones of 2. The man was be established in a central place (v. 9). 14. The nation was not again to be moved, not to be wasted by the warz. 3. He was to enjoy God's continued favor and help, to (10, 10). 4. He was to be subdued. 5. Perpetuation of the kingdom in David's line (v. 11, 14). 6. "Build them a family line. Unfoil him of a poverty, a family line. David proposed to build a temple as a place in which to worship God. God purposed to build a temple of him in a position of royal authority. 7. This was to be persecuted in David's seed after him. 8. "Batishah his brother" (v. 12). 9. "Batishah his brother" (v. 18, 14). 10. "Batishah his brother" in his kingdom forever. Disobedience to God would be visited with chastisement (II Sam. 15), but the covinants were not to be visited with chastisement, but David's seed is destined to occupy the throne (Luke 13: 83-84). 15. David's Worship (v. 15, 27). 16. In his actual worship, note: 1. His humility (v. 15, 18). 2. His approach Him with great humility. 17. His praise (v. 19, 20). 18.

His petition (vv. 28-29). All praise and expressions of gratitude are offered of definite petitions to God.

HOUSTON, TEXAS. SATURDAY, AUGUST 20, 1927 COOLIDGE AND G. O. P. NOMINATION In discussing, in last week's issue, President Coolidge's lactic statement about not "choosing" to run for the presidency in 1928. The Informer ventured the assertion that the chief executive of the republic was merely "passing the buck" to Republican leaders and testing his strength with party bosses and slate-makers as to their reaction to the third-term bogey, and to ascertain just how he (President Coolidge) stood with party leaders concerning his renomination and reelection. Hardly before the ink was dry on last week's editorial discussing this matter, the president was visited by a group of party leaders at the summer White House in the South Dakota hills, and overtures and representations made to him that he is the logical candidate for the Republican party and the nation in 1928. In discussing this visit and conference of these Republican party leaders and high officials with Mr. Coolidge, newspaper disclosures and representations made to the president was urged by the delegation to remain available for the convention, being assured that he—and only he—can carry the G.O.P. to victory in 1928 and safeguard and assure the continuation of the present era of economic stability and national prosperity. In our feeble judgment (if we can understand the English language, or even the so-called Yankee language—this editor was taught by Yankee teachers for 1912 and 1987 to be able to understand some of their lingo), the president did not state that he would not be a candidate for the presidency of the United States of America in 1928, but he merely asserted or wrote that "I do not choose to run for the presidency in 1928." Why, such a statement is as plain as the nose on one's face, and was not the emphatic assertion that the president will not be a candidate for the presidency in 1928. The party leaders and bosses fear that, with Mr. Coolidge out of the runnig and race, the field will be open to "favorite sons" and other aspirants and that some "dark horse" might enter the White House as a result of such a campaign—as was done in 1920 when Governor Frank O. Lowden and General Leonard Wood were the contending aspirants for Republican nomination for the presidency, and Warren G. Harding was nominated and elected. Furthermore, these party bosses and political leaders seem to believe that a change in titular head just now will wreak havoc to the cause of the party, as if all the presidential brains are located in the cranium of the present occupant of the White House. Coolidge non pre-Coolidge, as such; but this paper does not hold in the view that If Mr. Coolidge does not run as a Republican presidential nominee next year, either the party or the country will go to the "denmition bow-wows." Mr. Coolidge has made a safe, sane and sensible leader, yet there is nothing remarkable about him except his political astuteness, at which he is a master. He carried to the presidential chair quite a bit of the proverbial "Coolidge luck," and the party bosses and leaders are not so much for Mr. Coolidge as they are for themselves; and the president, if he finally "chooses" to run in 1928, will merely be aiding and abetting the cause of the G. O. P. chiktains—national and sectional—who see in and through Mr. Coolidge's retention of power to further entrench themselves in partisan and political power. It is all politics pure and simple, and it will not surprise The Informer to see these politicians literally draft or conscript President Coolidge in 1928, even if the chief magistrate of the republic does not "choose" to run for the office again. DEFECTIVE EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM A recent educational survey made in this state reveals the fact that, in many locales, colored and Mexican children are not being given a square and fair deal along educational lines, when it comes to facilities, facilities terms, etc. The survey also dislays the fact that of the colored rural teachers, though receiving a salary much smaller than the white teachers engaged in the same work, excelled the white teachers in ability and length of service. Coming to the cities the reverse was true as to ability and teaching experience, which leads one to conclude that colored teachers stay on the job longer in the rural districts than they do in the city. However, the report reveals the fact that the drift of rural teachers is citywards, where better salaries are paid, more adequate facilities prevail and many other conditions obtain which tend to lure these teachers from the country sections to the cities. The survey states that "one of the educational problems that the people of Texas face, is that of improving the teaching services in the city, and is entitled to as good teaching service as the child in the city. Practically, it will not be easy to bring this end about." The Houston Informer The survey pays the colored teachers a tribute when it says: The survey pays the colored teachers a tribute when it says: "In the matter of high school training, the showing is not so good for colored as for white teachers, but in college training, if the figures are taken at their face value, the situation is reversed. That is a white teacher," said the report, as indicated by these reports, the training of the Negro teachers compares very favorably with that of white teachers." Going a bit further, the report says: "The average salary of Negro teachers is about 35 per cent below that of white teachers. There can be little doubt that better salaries for colored teachers would attract qualified persons for the service of the colored schools." The report also looks with disfavor upon the "slavish following of a uniform text in a state the size of Texas," stating that such a procedure "would be unfortunate." This survey, made by school experts, shows the defects in our educational system in Texas, as it relates to our public schools and the quality of education, education, if there **"IDLEWILF"** It is cooler here and wild. It is one of the livest and busiest resorts of recreation and pleasure in the United States, and of the people who live there. It is one of the best classes of people from all over the country. But Idlewilf has a monotone work of everyday life, and a place to see a bit of wild animals and monotone work of everyday living. The resort is located twenty-five miles north of Grand Rapids. No one who has not seen Idlewilf can have an idea of it; we had heard only good reports on wild animals there, therefore, instead we be disappointed. Instead, we were surprised. No one who has seen Idlewilf could do it justice. There are more than 800 cottages穿透ed through the woods. One runs across a new cottage at every turn of winding roads. There are many wild growth of forest and underbrush. These resort residences are worth all the money. Over 17,000 labs have been sold and decided in these charming woods, and in these beautiful gardens, buyers number 6,000 and are scattered all over the foreign countries. Over half a hundred families remain on the resort and the resort community people come and go between April 1, 2000 and August 1, 2000 present on the first of August, but learned that the great crowds All this has come to pass in twelve weeks, and the sales at the Lincoln pub in Chicago, the genius behind the idea was, and the Lemon, 9, South Dearborn State Park, 10, South Bend, has been large in projecting and developing summer resorts for white men, he is, he conceived the idea that the same thing would be good for colored men, and they are them. Today he contends that Idlewild surpasses his best dreams and a then product of his efforts than he has ever done, and has sponsored for white Americans. During one of the chauqueyas session, Bradley asked for a show of hands as he called the roll of states. Many of the men answered the roll call—the greatest numbers of hands being shown for white men, and Texas as far east as New Orleans and Nebraska; as far south as Kansas and Nebraska; as far south as Texas as far east as North America; and thence to Idlewild. But the resort can be driven by railroad, We will write another article on weild and tell of some of the things that we do here, a truly national and international slay, a culture and culture center for colored people, and culture centers for other races, who may wish to accompany Near one end of the great lake at the base of the island, "entirely surrounded by water," the mainland by two bridges on oceansides. On this island are the three islands, one large hotel; one served to the public, and where each one serves very few, three fulties; one great hotel; the Purple Island, one great hotel; the Purple Island, one great hotel; which furnished an arrangement for extra large dresses and a furnishings electric lights and which furnished playgrounds of the great resort, and scores of small cabins for rest to the season. "The Island" is at present the head and center of Idlewild. A well-known tourist attraction, it is developing some miles away at "The Terraces" on a beautiful trout stream. The chaundaqu and most of the great gatherings take place on "The Island." The bathing beauty contest includes a 40-foot, 4b, and Miss Marce Wearer, of 812 Chestnut Street, Trouton, Ohio, was named the winner of the judges, of the assembled people for "Miss Milwaukee of 1927. Her brown skin, and her simple, unaffected manners would, in a fair judgment, make her a winner at Atlantic City. She is a beautiful woman." WHO "HIDES CRIMINALS"? By WILLIAM PICKENS (For the Associated Negro Press). At least in Los Angeles it seems that the colored people are not the ones who are trying to "hide Negro criminals," but the whites. Even the officers of the law, are trying to shield a colored man from punching him. The police chief of a heavily charged with murder and perjury. A Los Angeles Negro detective who was shot in the chest of a no-liquor "louder" road, where its no liquor was found. Then it is discovered that the officer who accompanied him in the raid, framed a defense by planting a bomb in the car, like two nounds before the grenade. Whether these charges are not alright or not, one thing is still clear: That the Negroes not "conceal" the nounds. The man who is leading the nounds is Dr. Claude Hudson, president of the Los Angeles N. A. A. C. A. p. a. man. The man who is trying to protect the officer who did the apprehension of police of Los Angeles, who, it is charged, had the rite of the police of Los Angeles, who, it is evidence" against the dead man in order to frame the matter and save BOMB IN THE SUBWAY By WILLIAM PICKENS We wonder who put that tube of black powder and dynamite in the tunnel between the office and Brooke's car, and that sure any of the employees who were about to go on a strike, put it on. We do not inert to charge anybody with this deed, but we do inert to exercise our free-born American well. "Just suppose" somebody "planted" that bomb to help create feeling against the strike. "Something somebody wanted to get public sentiment relief to the workers, what better way than to make the innocent public think that the striking employees are responsible for damage the property of the car company but would even take the lives of passengers and other innocent people." Did you notice that the bomb was "found" by one of the local employees when the attacker struck he had been ayered? And did you notice that the informal thing you would really explode, anyhow? The easiest thing about a bomb is to fix it yourself. You can hardly believe that the one who placed it hardly believed that the person who placed it could either it was placed on the cause of the strikes, or if anyone must have intended only to frighten passengers off the subway lines, for was certainly set so as not to go out. But it is difficult to conclude that regular men would even plant explosives on the subway so they help their causes to fail. Who put that who there ends? INSULTING A RACE. (By KELLY MILLER, Howard University, Washington, D. C.) NEGRO LEADERS AND "REDS" For the California Negro Negro Association, concerned alleged "red" propaganda among American Negroes from Moscow in several leading dailies of the country, the statements made recently by lending Negroes on the question of civil union movement ought to be of general public interest. These statements, which were sent to the writer in response to a questionnaire sent out by him, show that Negro leaders at least, are theoretically sympathetic to the race, and in many cases is nothing, however, in these statements to indicate that Negro leaders seem to show that the so-called lenders of the race are quite safe and labor. For all this, however there is a trend of liberalism in these Among those whose statements will be made public shortly are Dr. W. W. C.

People should take pride in having Negro children should be taught the value of the newspapers that are published by members of their race. People should have newspapers made vast strides in superior to most class publications, both as to physical appearance and editorial content. Many of them compare favor with the daily publications. They are often called newspapers because the press has reached the point where it reflects credit upon those whom it colored newspapers are not perfect. Perhaps they contain things that ought not to have been published or neglect certain events that should have been stressed, but in what other newspapers can you find more news about the lives of other newspapers champion as effectively the rights of colored Americans?
