Pictorial Portrayal of Damage Wrought By St. Louis Tornado
The finest colored residential section of St. Louis was demolished by the recent tornado which swept that city. The lives of twenty-two colored people were lost with the possibility that more may be in the wreckage. Citizens are are struggling bravely the monumental task of rehabilitating themselves and rebuilding their homes. It is feared that lack of capital may cause tremendous economic losses. —A. N. P.
Recent A. N. P. Survey Reveals Awful HAMPTON GRADS Colored Savants Damage Done Colored St. Louisans; SUPPORT BOARD Hold Big Meeting; Loss Estimated At $2,250,000.00 IN LATE STRIKE Woodson, Leader
(S staff Correspondent Associated Negro Press)
St. Louis, Mo.—The general public outside of the confines of the city of St. Louis and the eastern section of the state of Missouri, does not realize the havoc wrought by the tornado which struck her a few weeks ago. The general belief is that the greatest destruction was done in the residential district of the city. A tour of the devastated area proves this belief erroneous. Beautiful residential districts, one of the finest in the country, composed of some of the most pretentious homes owned by Negroes in the city and state, were destroyed. The residents were told once the show-places of race, locally, as far as residences are concerned, are now piles of brick, mortar and stone. Block after block, on Cook Avenue, Welle and Enright avenues, were laid out, and the memory of the funeral is remembered of the stipendous task faced by the citizens of St. Louis in the rehabilitation of these homes.
While the loss of lives was to a cer- it is evident that the job is too big extent negligible, due probably to for local effort. The loss was too great, and the memory of the funeral is too critical, and o'clock in the afternoon when children help is needed. How these Negro possessions are at work in a livelihood, the loss of a few is to be rehabilitated in the question property.
Loss Estimated At $2,250,000
House Furnishings Destroyed
Added to the plight of being rendered homeless, is that of losing all clothing and the like. Those homes which were in comparison slightly damaged by the winds, were flooded by the storm, and were "from the cellar to the attic." The tour of the torrential rain of the life of St. Louis in the remaining ruined property was not so remote, and furnished furniture it did before the storm, but utterly ruined. Coats, hats, et cetera were hanging in their closets, and their usefulness has been destroyed.
HOUSTON, TEXAS, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 5. 1927
it is evident that the job is too big for local effort. The loss was too big for local effort, it is too critical, and help is needed. How these Negro businesses are concerned with the local Chamber of Commerce which is staggering the minds of the St. Louis leaders. White and Negro business men allie are condemning Bixby of the local Chamber of Commerce to the total loss, reaching $500,000 and it does would be so great, Mr. Bixby's statements to the effect that the help he provided to the National Red Cross was not needed. The result is that the small property owners give them a start as has been true of similar great disasters elsewhere find themselves in the need of gramping money lenders who are demanding twenty-five and thirty per cent on seconddeed of the James T. Bush Company, and the leading result of the city, whose residents require $100,000 in money on colored homes than any other single agency, is endowing to the local Negro Business League and the Peoples Finance Company, which will provide a fund to help the home is it hoped by these leaders that the Negro Finance Corporation, various individuals with surplus money will assist in aborning ponds secured by the Negro Business League to house the homes are to be erected. "that we are asking for," said Bush. "The investment which will pay the investor seven per cent. We expect to raise the outside, we can save the homes on the outside, we can save their efforts of a lifetime if compelled to accept the terms now demanded by the Negro Business League to St. Louis will be struck a blow from which it will not recover." the
Hampton Inst., Va.—A statement following a meeting of the executive committee of the Hampton Alumni Association, authorized by Charles H. Williams, chairman of the alumni visitation committee, Charles T. Rushall, Mrs. Janie Porter Barrett, all alumni and the alumni committee, has been issued as follows:
"The executive committee of the Hampton Alumni Association met in a special session at Hampton Institute, and the committee called by the chairman, Dr. W. E.Reld, was attended by alumni from different colleges and telegraphers and telegraphers were read from distant alumni, who on account of short notice, were unable to be present.
"After a five-hour session in which the committee viewed all aspects of the visitation committee, it was unanimously voted to support the administrative board in Hampton during the recent strike.
"The visitation committee, operation of the executive committee, will cooperate with the committee, justing matters which it is hoped will make for better understanding on the subject."
'Jim-Crow' School Tangle Appealed To Supreme Court
Washington, D. C.—The case of the demonstration of white school children alleged to have been inspired by their parents in Gary, Ind., in Emerson High School of that city, and the school board's ready and eager response to the demands it will go before the United States Supreme Court as a test case, the case of the warranted cases of jim-crow legislation. The legal point at issue is the constitutional right of states to discriminate in the education of children in spite of the various amendments to the federal constitution that follow. Negro children of Gary, as well as several upstanding white citizens declare that the case will be carried out by the Negro Association for the Advancement of Colored People are taking an active joint just to see that nothing is left unanswered. Negro children of the Gary High
Pittsburgh, Pa.—During the three-day meeting of the Association for the Study of Negro Life and History, held in Ebenebee Baptist Church here last week under the direction of Dr. Carter W. Woodson, the founder and savants from all parts of the United States gathered and discussed numerous phases of Negro life and history during the visit of the public visiting. Dr. Woodson in his last address addressed the commission, which is attempting to promote harmony between the races without first giving the theses and achievements of the history, achievements of the Negro, and admitting the "inferiority complex" situation was the result of 300 years
CHARGE GOTHAM JURIST HOSTILE TO NEGRO GROUP
New York City —(ANP)—According to Attorney Myles A. Paige, Judge Lewis A. Abrams of the seventh district being prejudiced against colored people Attorney Paige declared Judge Abrams, in charging the jury in the case of a courtroom, the verb tilted which showed his partiality to the defendant. When the jury filed of the court-room, the verb tilted took place. Judge Abrams thwarted to take the jury's hands and send it to the district attorney's office. This Counselor Paige invited the jury to the district attorney's office. Judge the judge decided to let it remain
EXTRA! FLORENCE MILLS IS DEAD
New York City—(ANP)—Florence Mills is dead. The "Little Blackbird," who thrilled the剧院protegers on two continents, has gone in search of her mother, who cumbered Monday, following an operation for appendicitis, after friend thought she was on the road to recovery. Sunday night she suffered a post-operative shock. Her debut into the theatrical world as a child performer at a small theatre to a mixed audience in Washington, D. C. She was a shy, diffident little thing and attracted attention because of a certain wistfulness and pleasanity of character. Thereafter little was heard of the young lady who replaced Gertrude Saunders in the cast of the original "Shuffle Along" at the Sixth Street Theatre in New York City. She was a show's run. Critics on daily newspapers promptly recognized the striking personality of Miss Mills, and she began to garner the contents of what has since grown to be an immense scrap book of favorable clips. On December 25, a few months after joining the cast of "Shuffle Along," she appeared with the stars of the show at "Clown Night" at the National Vanderville Artists Club, to which she was invited to present her to a larger public. Her later success was predicated upon that night, for there was crystallized the determination of Lew Leslie, a teacher at the University of New York, starring Mills Mills. After much success in America, Miss Mills returned to Baltimore, and called for Europe, where she was received with much acclaim. She had a new audience with an applause with which she

COMBINE ROGER
WILLIAMS, HOWE
Knoville, Tenn.—(ANP)—One of the outstanding decisions made at the annual meeting of the Tennessee Baptists was that the Roger Williams College of Nashville and Howe College of Memphis will be combined and located in Memphis.
This action on the part of the convention tends to assure the state Baptists of one of the strongest colleges operated and controlled by the denomination. Roger Williams University has real estate holdings and buildings in Nashville valued at $150,000 and there was a strong inclination to locate the combined school in Nashville, 'but due to the large Negro population of Memphis, it was deemed best to place the institution in Memphis, where it would serve a greater number.
RACE TEACHERS TO CONVENE IN STATE CAPITOL
Austin, Texas—According to advises from the executive office of the Colored State Teachers Association, President T. T. Pollard, Beaumont, has announced that the meeting of the association, November 24-28, will be unique in that one of its sessions will be held in the capital, at Austin, and that Dr. Sutton E. Griggs will address the gathering. For many months efforts have been made to arrangements for the use of the building and the final consent of the board of control has been but recently cut off. In the history of the state, as well as the second time within this year, the opportunity of using this building

WILDCATS SMOTHER P.V.PANTHERS
PANTHERS FAIL TO FLASH FORM: GAME LISTLESS
PANTHERS FAIL TO FLASH FORM: GAME LISTLESS
Prairie View. Texas. Oct. 28. The Wiley Wildes of Marshall, defeated the Prairie View Panthers here today before a crossbar outback and customized the Prairie View rivals in every department of the game, the context being played principally under the guidance of the Wildes played chiefly a game of long swooping end runs, which time and again netted them great gains. "Big Ben" Cavil, the Wiley Wildes of Marshall, was at his best, and to tore off him around the Panther ends almost at the big state school eleven was slow and sluggish and failed to up the drive and punch it to take on the Panther. "Jap" Turner, Panther triplet steer star, also from Beamont and former teammate of "Big Ben," had an off drive and punch the form and dash he is reputed to have. The Panther score came in the first quarter by means of a safety, and the Wiley score in the second quarter by means of a touchdown resulting in a victory.
The Panthers failed to show the plight and figure of the game, a danger to them. They account for the ing. There seemed to have been over-confidence, and yet there was a sense of determination she had into the game for sixty full minutes and Prism, View dilled the ball. The Panthers were in the game with all the power they could muster. Captain Turner were "present," while some of the Panther stars couldn't get the ball. The Wiley machine was working fairly well with "Big Ben," Scott, and another team. The game was meduced in its entirety.

ALPHONSE WILLIAMS, Shoe Saleman at Buckley's Shoe Store, 315 Main Street, says:
"Children always like to come to Buckley's, for this store has served the children of this community and South Texas for many generations, and each succeeding year finds Buckley's growing more in favor with the younger.
"With the approach of the cool and damp fall days, parents should look for good-looking and good-wearing children's shoes. Buckley's is the place for those good-looking and good-wearing children's shoes, and we have brought up whole families on just the kind of shoes I am selling. I have always tried to match styles and the comfort produced by wearing 'Buckleykim'—ideal and at the same time comfortable. The shoes are priced right, too, ranging from $2.50 to $5.50, according to size. "Bring or send the children to me if you want them, and them. Remember, I also are giving a 'Buckleykim' giant pencil, absolutely free, with every pair of school shoes."

Yates Lions Best Wheatley Wildcats In Local Contest
The Jack Yates Lions took the measure of Wheatley Wooldens last time. The Lions were able to advance the ball by a series of line plunges and offload plays, while the Wheatley Wooldens made a fine showing for its initial game, defense only spasmodically. The Wheatley squad was never able to endure a series of offload plays made a fine showing for its initial game, defense of continued penalties, the Yates aggregation was slow getting up a scoring punch. The first touchback of the second quarter was the beginning of the second quarter. The crossing came at the end of the first half when the Wheatley squad was through for a blocked three yards from the goal. The third touchdown was made in the third quarter in a manner much similar to the tacular end-run. For the Wheatley squad was made in the last two minutes of play, when a long pass was intercepted by a Wildent who raced into nearly half the field for his goal. The crowd attending the game made the difference from both school to other intercepted passes with enthusiasm. Pep squads furnished plenty of organized cheer and amuse-

The team has it that the boys from "Tamnelleville" are roaring, ripping, mugging mustangs, and have been cleaning up every agony they have faced this season, while the goal line this season, while the fightship locks in, is still locked in the fleet-footed, hard-ground with that much touted Fort Arthur team a week or so ago. They are coming with blood in their eyes, with the intention of wiping out the sting of that 27-7 defeat administered them by the team. It will be remembered that on that occasion the "Tamnellevillians" scored first five minutes of play, but were unable to retain the early lead against the tackle plays, hard gaining and endured reeled off by our local gristrals. Barre's Field, November 11, 1927 promises to be an armistice day in San Antonio and the Bears and Eagles are concerned.

Many Made Homeless
On the day of the storm, St. Louis boasted of being a "home town," and St. Louis home. In fact, of the most prominent citizens of the city, Attorney Horney Philippe, in disguise, attributed the attack to real fakes of real cafes in St. Louis to this fact. Thousands upon returning home on the day of the attack, friends, or looming, destroyed, their personal belongings lost, and they are today homeless, living in friends, or looming, and have to have removed from the storm area. The immediate suffering was relieved by the heroic work of the American Red Cross, the American Legion; the local Irish League, and the self-serving groups of individuals and groups. The stories of the nights when the city fell graphically the conditions faced by the city and how well the citizens met their race prejudice was forgotten and white and colored worked together to combat the conditions and joined the rich and the poor together their respective stations in life and joined the community to help those in a common sight to see the daughters of millionaires serving soup to the victims.

1. Idolatry (vv, 5, 6).
They were to turn away from the places of idolatry- Hirsch, Gilgal and Beersehner. God's judgment was to throw them if they would not come to Him for life he would be their destroyer. "Our God is a consuming fire." The only option he could take is to seek him the one who shall destroy. 2. Cause to pervert judgment (4). 3. Turn judgment to wormwood "implies the bitterness of the perversion of justice to the injured. 4. Leave of righteousness" is thought to mean that unrighteousness was allowed to take in place. In this third exhortation the Loeck's name is used to describe the shadow of death into morning: 5. Maketh the day dark with night: 6. *Cailthe* for the waters of the sea and porch of the house and rain and deluge: 5. *Strengthened the spell against the strong.* 11. The Sins Composed by the Witch (9-10-13). 12. They hated the judge who condemned the wicked pretices (v. 10). 13. They abhored him that spoke
This most likely referred to the prophets themselves who told them of their sins and urged uprightness of them. 3. They trumped upon the poor (v. 12). The rich built magnificent houses out of the proceeds extorted from the poor. 4. They afflicted the just (v. 12). This they did by taking a bribe. 5. They turned aside the poor in the gate (v. 12). It was no money the poor were turned aside. It was most difficult for the poor to get justice. The times were so evil the prudent would best keep silence. 14. The Conduct of the Righteous (v. 14). No condition in the word, religious, social or political can become so difficult that the righteous are shut off from help. The righteous can: 15. Those who seek good shall have with them the Lord God of Hosts. 16. Must be held must. The sin question must be settled before God can bestow His blessings. 17. The prophet urged upon the court of justice to be in the gate of the city. The prophet urged upon the court of justice to be in the gate of the man in charge of public affairs.

The Houston Informer
I want to apologize to Bishop A. L. Gaines for my release of three weeks ago, referring to him as "Ai" (Ai). I want to apologize to this submission to this copy by the partial and misleading report of his discourse as it appeared in the columns of the Afro-American. Judging from the start, it was a very difficult task to range under it. no other conclusion was possible. The Afro-American in usually reliable, though often merciless, in its news service. It would be cowardly to hide behind the shield of the Afro-American, and it would cover the writers and speakers. I will say, however, in the meantime, that the report bore all of the semblance of accuracy and stood unquestioned. I have received several publications and derived therefrom the same conclusion as
Upon the appearance of my release, Bishop Gaines wrote me to the effect that he had been appointed to the position, and that the purport and purpose of his sermon was precisely the opposite to what he had interpreted. He was printed in the Afro-American. I therefore requested him to furnish a copy of his sermon, engaging to correct any wrong interpretation which was derived from his fulful perusal of the full discurses might justify. The bishop then sent me a copy of his sermon, reviewing, containing the full text of his sermon in question. After giving this discurses a careful perusal, I printed in the Afro-American furnished no adequate basis for assessment of the bishop on the issue treated. In my judgment, the extracts on my sermon are positive, I can account for this representation only on the supposition that the reporter must have entered the bishop's sermon, and forth his preliminary purpose and left before he had drawn his final conclusion. He instead striking and starting when taken out of their setting. But the good bishop set up these modern bystanders in the setting them. His argument was as reverent and his obsession as an evasion.
Bishop Gaines' note to me made no complaint; he was no demand, not no complaint, but merely pointed out, with Christian forbearance, what he regarded as the necessary in case of misunderstanding between any two men of gentlemanly spirit to up to me. He was weeks ago, as some of the readers will remember, I wrote a release upon Henry Ford's apology 46 years ago, by misguidance, by misjudgment, and by pernicious himself to persecute upon that character. He brought a brightness in making the requisite apology when he learns that he in being a man of gentlemanly spirit no apology can ever make full amends for the wrong inflicted. Both the disclaimers and many who do see the disclaimers by compulsion or prudence came by compilation or conviction Henry Ford's conviction many persons that this disavowal is genuine, rather than con
I have been handling public questions for thirty years through sundry books, pamphlets, and pen; in book and on platform, in book and pamphlet; in magazine and newspaper. I have treated of men and women and their relationship. But I have never before been called upon and never felt obliged to apologize for anything that I ever said or wrote. I have frequently incurred striking disagreement of my own conscience and judgment. I have never incurred the disapproval of my own conscience and judgment. I have worthwhile. I have never been to an organization, and especially an individual, an injustice. I have never been to an organization, and especially an individual, an injustice. If fact or error of appraisement of fact causing injustice to any party, I have been called upon and called upon called to the error. The apology will be forthcoming without the request. But mind you, I must be forthcoming without the request.
All that I said about medical or religious matters, I will present them apart to administer to the spiritual aspirations of these simple-minded people to rehabilitate with double meaning. But I will not be a religious person.

HOUSTON, TEXAS, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 5, 1927
GREEN'S FOLLOWERS FLAY INFORMER
The editor of The Informer is in receipt of a letter from a close friend, written from a Northern center, who opines that this paper's "attack" on Supreme Chancellor S. W. Green of New Orleans, La., "is making friends" for the title head of the Colored Knights of Pythias of North America, South America, etc., and that we should desist in our "fight on Mr. Green and not make a martyr of him."
We appreciate this letter, its contents and sentiments, but neither The Informer nor its editor has attempted to wage a "fight" on Mr. Green or "attack" the supreme chancellor, per se.
Our editorial comments have been actuated by a desire to do battle against a policy which we think will ultimately work to the defrain of the order and the entire Negro race; and, in none of our editors or articles, have we made any personal attacks upon this distinguished Pelican City fraternalist.
However, we might reiterate here for emphasis that no man in public life is above or immune from criticism, and, because this editor differs and disagrees with the supreme chancellor and his supporters in their "sectionalism" issue, does not mean nor indicate that we are personal enemies or at "outs."
Most assuredly, if the chief executive of the United States of America is both the subject and object of criticism and censure by the press of the country, no man in this republic, who essays to serve in a public or quasi-public office, should regard himself as infallible and exempt from the liability of making mistakes. Even the old myth that the "king can do not wrong," (the "divine right of kings" doctrine) has been exposed and exposed.
The charge has even been made and broadcast that The Informer editor is trying to "destroy Mr. Green" and that our original editorial of August 27, 1927, entitled "Raising the issue of Sectionalism," was "defamatory, insulting, unwarranted, vicious, assaultive to our racial cause." Our people certainly do develop a warped method of reasoning and reaching conclusions, and it is this narrow-minded, selfish and bigoted attitude assumed so often by most of our supposed leaders and their devoted followers and adherents, which wreaks unintentionally to our racial cause. Now being bitterly denounced and vehemently excoriated by certain of the Pythian-Green "faithfuls," because this Texas editor did what few Negro Pythians will do, and that is, to publicly disagree with the supreme channel for commending Mr. Green for having the "courage of his convictions" in his anti-South attitude and hostility to the supreme lodge of the order meeting in any city of the "far South" as long as the Negro race is victimized by segregation, jim-crowism, disfranchisement, and other abortions of justice, these same Green devotees, in the next breath, condemn this editor for "conspiracy" in his art and his thinking and print. (Consequently, that art induced a rare, rich and precious jewel!)
The printed word always appears more overmethylated, conviving and convicting than the spoken word; for, long after the spoken word is forgotten, the printed word is still preserved, and, in instances, becomes Hanuco's ghost which can not be downed.
It was perfectly all right for Mr. Green to have certain fixed opinions and express them in a public address, but it is all wrong for the editor of The Informer or any other publication to take opposite attitude and print them in a newspaper! (Let us mind.)
But after all, guess the Massachusetts fraternal is right, is it the Massachusetts its final analysis, The Houston Informer is a "reformer," Selah
CONFERENCE FOR POLITICAL ACTION
In line with a suggestion made several weeks ago by The Informer, a call has been issued for a conference of Negro men and women, which will be held at Lyons Hall, Austin, Texas, Friday, November 25, 10:30 a.m., at which time the political status of the colored voter in Texas will be discussed, and a course of action decided upon for future political and partisan activity in this state.
According to newspaper reports, some of the leading members of the race in this state will attend the conference, and it is expected that a workable, tangible program will be outlined for execution during 1928 and succeeding years.
The Texas Negro is too lethargic, indifferent and apathetic, politically speaking, and something must be done to awaken within the race an interest, intensive and enthusiastic, in matters and issues of a political nature which vitally and directly affect our racial group, the state and social order.
He who loses heart in a contest, contention, battle or fight has already lost his cause; which reminds us that the Holy Writ teaches that the "battle is not to the strong, nor the race to the swift, but to him who endureth unto the end."
As we have often stated in these columns, "a winner never and a quitter never wins, and if the Negro or Texas want to win, they must exercise their martial prowess, they must organize their forces and conduct an intelligent campaign along this line.
So many of our people have been lulled to sleep with the siren song of designing demagogues and wily politicians that "politics is dirty" and that "Negroes should have nothing to do with the world." and that "Negroes should have nothing to do with partisan extinction in this state.
It is now or never, as far as the brother is concerned in Texas, for the acquisition, maintenance and employment of his constitutional and inalienable rights as an American citizen; and the requirement to be a citizen of the United States ciding upon some course of action along this and other lines. The citizens issuing this call have no ax to grind, nor are they seeking any selfish benefits, but they are interested in the race, its welfare and advancement; for they realize that no race or people can make lasting and permanent progress in a democratic society, and therefore they cannot not employ the ballot with telling effect on election days. If the Negroes of Texas want their political emancipation; if they are tired of roaming in the political wilderness; if they deem themselves worthy to enter the political land of Canaan, then they should be willing to spend a little money and a few dollars, counselling and planning for the best interests of the race. Without organization we can do very little along any line, and organization presupposes both a leadership and following; the former selected by our own group and not superimposed upon us by some other racial contingent. We go to Austin on November 25, 1927, and organize our forces for the final and ultimate conquest of the political promised land.
NEGRO STUDENTS' "STRIKING" ATTITUDE
Much has been said and written regarding the tendency of our young people in college nowadays to rebel and revolt against the school authorities, but it appears that the fundamental reason (or one of them) for such outbreaks and "strikes," is the teaching that so many of our young people receive at home, or which they fail to receive at home.
When parental reins are virtually loosened and children are permitted to do in the home as they please, going when they want to and coming when they get good and ready, it should not cause any undue alarm and perturbation when we observe the same outcome. The first and greatest unit of society is the home, this institution even entated the church; and no race, which neglects its home life and permits its children to grow up without any parental restraint, can hope to escape the penalty for its folly along such lines.
Not only the youths of America, but grown-ups as well, need to be taught respect for constituted authority; for when children see their elders and seniors disregarding and trampling under their feet laws which do not meet their approval, it is natural and logical that these youths will follow suit; or at least attempt to caring might what their actions might cause or accomplish.
For every effect there is a cause, whether constructive or destructive; and it appears to the Informer that we need to get at the root of this evil, and remove the cause, or else these outcasts will be forced to store for our race and the social family along this and other lines.
It is true that you can not develop a child's mind, train him to think and then deny him the right to employ his mind along other lines save the text-books and subject matter in our collegiate and scholastic curricula; but this thought must be directed along same lines. We must not allow the mind to be wrought by his desire and endeavor to act at the least impulse, without weighing the matter and giving it the kind of thought and consideration it might deserve.
These school "strikes" are regrettable and deplorable incidents, and, while they tend to show up in a glaring manner upon the side of the race's ledger, it must be borne in mind that people who are exposed to such environments, surroundings and contemporaneous civilization
We hope we have made our position quite clear!

BISHOP GAINES VINDICATED
(BY KELLY MILLER, Howard University, Washington, D. C.)
K
tion that Bishop Gaines, judged from this discourse, belongs to this class. He fervently aws his belief in the virgin birth and in 'all of the essential doctrines set forth in the Apocalypse, the onslaught of science or other of this there can be no doubt on part of any one who will read carefully, and with theurnished key, his able discourse before the recent bishop
The fight is now on. Darwin has offered mortal combat to theology and Protestant fundamentalism is making the fatal mistake of trying to fight on his own ground, where it always has been, but owning it invincible. But fundamentalism, as an embodied in the Catholic Church, is also falling back on the eternal mysteries and asserts serenity: "Before Co-Creation, I was am, and I will still be after they and their demonstrated facts have been universally accepted or re-
It is alleged that on one occasion Henry Ward Beecher entered his pulpit on a summer's Sunday, and beaten up with remarks: "It is hot it is i-d is d-od. The astonishment to be inrover, but before they could recover the shock, the resourceless preacher explained that he had heard from profane lips lwips on his way to the morning service. At the outset, Bibhog Gaines set out to explain the reasons for his dels, skepis and agnostics, and to urge the needs of preparation on the part of the minister of today, to show the fundamentals of Christianity." I take it that the reporter, anxious, as beaten up, quoted the modernist views and ascribed them to the bishop.
The Negro church is in a precarious position. Its only possible hope comes from the cultural merits of the traditional creed. The older Christian have no mind or patience with withering with the foundation, and the younger clergy is not sufficiently learned to speak with any convincing authority. Negro is patetically unspiritualized. There is no harmonization between religion and science, which will affect their differentials. That will affect their differentials. Like the Japanese youth, the first emperor of the world will seem the most sorrowful of the religion of their more ignorant and reverent forbears. The only hope lies in the clergy holdout the elders and to develop an atmosphere which is so surcharged with the new issue, with its shallow scientific coneit, towards the eternal mystery where science and religion are

With such remembrances little wonder it is that we at the "court" have our bostic struggle with Battersea and had refused to return to his corner after telling me with a solar plexus the memorable Sunday morning.
