ONLY WEEKLY NEWSPAPER IN HOUSTON WITH ASSOCIATED NEGRO PRESS SERVICE, ARTICLES BY DR. KELLY MILLER AND DEAN WILLIAM PICKER TWO COLORED COLLEGES MERGE CITY EDITION VOLUME IX The Mirror THE HOUSTON INFORMER 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.

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 NUMBER 25 TENN. BAPTISTS 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.

Harlem Internes Held Responsible For Negro's Death New York City.—(ANP)—Two interns, one colored, Dr. Maynth of Harlem Hospital, have been named in the death of William Scott. According to the story told, young Scott, 22, was taken from them. Scott was a very early morning. An ambulance had been summoned to Scott's home, 48 West 130th Street, with Interne Guttman in attendance. Scott is alleged to have been suffering from it is charged by Scott's father that instead of treating him for rabite poison, he was treated for drunkenness.

AND THIS IS MISSISSIPPI Clarkdale, Miss.—(ANP)—H. E. Schmitz, a white man, has been sentenced to the penitentiary for three years for stealing an automobile from When Johnny bakes at any more eggs and milk, he can be wont with the addition of a little cream, pleasing form all the high food values which he rejects in plainer and less appetizing guise. Here is an excellent avenient to make and one that offers opportunity for endless variation by the addition of cocnut, chocolate, nutmeg and vanilla oil. 1 cup sweetened condensed milk 1 cup hot water 1 teaspoon salt 2 whole eggs or 3 egg yolks 1 teaspoon vanilla or desired flavor Dilute the condensed milk with hot water and bring to the scalding point in a double boiler. Pour this slowly into the milk and stirring the mixture thoroughly. Return to the double boiler and continue to cook, stirring constantly until the milk is thick enough to add the salt and flavoring and then chill for serving. This is a dessert easy to get around any condensation again, since the possible variations that will occur to the inventive cook easily get around any condensation Another clever method of "putting them in the frequently presented but all-impregnated dish," is to serve them shrimp, Span- sardine is to serve them shrimp, Span- sardine affords opportunity of using other ingredients, table tapels, which is high in car- bohydrate, tables and cheese. The recipe here given serves four portions and makes a large amount of cheese. The d pint strained tomatoes 1 cup grated cheese Heat the strained tomatoes to double boiler. And all other ingredients, except for fifteen minutes, stir frequently. Butter a shallow baking dish in the tapioca mixture. Make four small pans and into each break an egg. Sprinkle with cheese and bake in a moderate oven. 360 degrees Fahrenheit, until the eggs are soft. In the parsley and the children will eat their eggs without a knife. Next to eggs perhaps the most difficult item to popularize with children in vegetables. An intriguing recipe that requires the growing younger's diet is to mold the unattractive garden product into a healthy bean, banana, corn, potatoes, mealy-chopped bean, and chopped celery, all offer excellent basic material for a health-building salad. Here is a recipe for an asparagus salad. Drain the liquor from a can of aparagus tips. Add one tablespoon of chopped celery, and lightly mash to make a pint. Add to this one-half cup of chopped celery, one-fourth teaspoon of garlic, and Simmer for a few minutes, strain, and add a package of lemon-flavored gelatin to attractive dish with the gelatin and let harden. Then place aparagus tips with strips of green pepper and pimento into the tin over it. Set away to harden. You can be sure of an enthusiastic response when it is served on crisp lettuce and garnished with the following dressings: 3 tablespoons evaporated milk 1 cup salad oil 2 tablespoons vinegar or lemon juice 1 teaspoon salt 1 teaspoon mustard 1 teaspoon paprika 1 teaspoon sugar 1 teaspoon sugar Combine the dry ingredients, add milk, and gradually heat in the oil; then add the vinegar or lemon juice till smooth. This dressing, which is so easy to prepare, will keep indifferent. It is with such Machtialheil method as these here enumerated that the tie-down can be used. The dren can solve the highly-important problem of keeping young students fit at the same time at a high school and the tendency to succeed in their school work. "PORGY" DELIGHTS N. Y.

The organization is making a special appeal to Negroes to join and in the next year to help Negro refugees in the various disasters last year, including the Mississippi flood. Following the Red Cross rushed to the stricken areas and administered relief to white and colorized Negroes, they helped many "back on their feet." Following the tornado in St. Louis, the Red Cross hurried to the hundreds tenanted by Negroes by the Red Cross to their rescue and worked hand in hand with the local agencies to help them. "We need 5,000,000 members," Chairman Paynes stated in the report. Our roll call should meet our normal needs and great disasters. The Red Cross cannot wait to raise funds.

Boston, Mass.—(ANP) - J. Solomon Gaines' entry into the race for the city council from Ward 9 has created a furore in the ranks of colored voters in the chairman Matthew Bullock of the Republican ward Council, accuses Mr. Gaines, who is the only Negro candidate of "political bad faith." He is making the race at the instigation of Augustus Slager (formerly re-entrant to the race) and without the consent or approval of the Ward 9 committee," Mr. Bullock told us. When interviewed on the Bullock charges, Mr. Gaines said, "I refuse to vote for Augustus Slager, because I attempt to answer them. I am out to win, and furthermore, I'm simply exercising my constituency rights at the race." Mr. Slager could not be seen when reporters called at his city hall office, and characterized the action "a thin ruse" and said the colored voters of the city council had Mr. Slager and his candidate Gaines. Some members of the Republican committee are even inclined to support Augustus Slager in the city council if he is favorable to the "respectable" element of the Negro ELECTIVE POST Springfield, Mass.—(ANP)—Attorney for the city council has been appointed to the city council from in the primary election here last week.

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."

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- Golden Eagles Tackle Douglass Bears on Nov. 11 Golden Eagles Tackle Douglass Bears on Nov. 11 What promises to be a "red hot" gritten-break will be staged before teams in the state, Douglas Beara of San Antonio and B.

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.

Atlanta, Ga., Nov. 1, 2017—Atlanta University and Talladega College played one of the most spectaculare games in an Atlanta athletic field last Saturday. Talladega was heavy and in fine form but so was Atlanta. Coaches wonders in a week's time at the Atlanta aggregation. Talladega speed the ball to Atlanta, who returned, and then passed it to Atlanta, line—then a good pass placed the ball on Talladega's 1-foot line for a 10-yard pass. The quarterback's back was seized by Pierson of Talladega with a tensions start, ran the entire length of the field, and then Robin Ayers that raised the blood in Atlanta's eyes.

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.

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! OPINIONS Cimbee's Ramblings 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 THE MIRROR (Continued from Page One) this name, who went about the community doing good and who was sad for the loss of his sister, Sister Lydia never forgets to present the conductor of this department to the students on each year on our natal day, and we have a occasion to express our deep sense of kindly remembrance and delicious and sweet remembrance.
