X—TWO SECTIONS WHITE Meas THE MIRROR BY C. F. RICHARDSON REGARD FOR VERACITY CRAB CHARACTERISTICS THOUGHT AND CHOICE THE MUSEUM STILL THEY COME One of the local race publications, in its last week's issue, sought to create the impression—really charging it as a fact—that the special feature, the *The Mirror*, by Floyd J. Calvin, who is doing some special journalistic work on the Houston Forum, lynchning here for the Courier and Houston Informer; when as a host for the Forum, he was in Houston for one week during the Pythian grand lodge, the first week in June, and the article appearances in the *The Mirror*, written for "The Mirror," at this writer's request. Mr. Calvin told his observations in Houston and wrote more or less in a personal vein of his state; and the only news carried in the Courier about the local horrible horror came through regular news reports. Perhaps our journalistic contemporary had in mind Edgar G. Brown, dragged Robert Powell from his dying state; and the only news carried in the Courier about the local horrible horror came through regular news reports. But even Mr. Brown's article had made the doppelgänger of the邓廷豪 party than with the then recent lynching be, and he wrote things saw them and did not mince words. It strikes us that Negro editors strike at the journalistic frater, even if the latter is not a resident and even though he may be putting, a program of publicity which they too ooze too dense or to understate. The statement that Mr. Calvin or the borough burger "covered" the Houston lynching and unfavourably "sold" this outside world through the former, is not only a misstatement of the borough to us as malicious propaganda but malice and the crab instinct which so peculiarly infect and infest the Ne ... While talking about this "crab" instinct or characteristic of the Negro in church, the members of our race, often associated together in church, fraternal, business, social, civic and other circles, teach their children to tie beards to their immediate associates. a one member of the church, lodge club, organization or firm seeks to maintain himself and his family in keeping with his station in life, and teach them to take, certain envious associates will begin to circulate rumors and reports to keep up with the Joneses; "trying to run with people who can buy and sell them, such as teachers and children sleek in areas around a nice car when he ought to be running a second-hand filer"; "lives in the city," he says; "that he is rich," and a lot of such bunk which only emanates from a person with an evil heart or cracked One reason it is rather difficult to get Negroes to form companies, commit to the crab attribute; for it seems to be our racial policy and training that we must insist another Negro to rise above us, and perchance, one Negro does show unmistakable sign of rising above the racial for the racial process, but these envious blacks are unable to hunch his back, they get bury, manufacture rumors and gossip. The greatest enemy to Negro programs is the NEGRO HIMSELF. He is the only force which can arrest the Negro. Negro will never trump the gridiron of life until he learn and practice the elemental and motivated other successful races and people. If you don't want a racial brother to try to place an impediment in your pathway; to prove your race back in the basket with the other ebony-hued "crab," for goodness sake.

The white advisory committee also delegated Dr. J. W. Slaughter with more autocratic and arbitrary power, virtually giving him carte blanche authority, and took steps which may ultimately cust all of the colored doctors from this supposed Negro hospital. Under the rule of appointing 20 such board, and refused to accept the white consulting doctor, who shall be postfixed. Under the rule of apportion* 20 white consulting doctors, who shall be appointed by the Nine-Mile North staff until the St. Joseph's Infrary constructs a building for colored patients, the white advisory committee, exercising extra legal authority not conceived to it by the constitution of the hospital, declared null and void rules and regulations of the colored staff, which had been approved by the colored board, and delegated to Dr. Joseph A. McCormick matters which have heretofore been the property of the colored staff and board. New Negro Board Chosen In naming the new Negro board for 1929, the white advisory committee reapproached three of the 1928 members, viz: W. E. Miller, C. H. McGrude, Rev. J. S. Secord, the four new members, E. McCoy, Miss Virginia B. Miller and "Gussie" Andrews. The colored board failed to elect the last named person, for no member of the Negro board knew any person in Houston by that name. The board, members, W. E. Miller and C. H. McGrude, took the position that, since it was apparent that there is no need for a colored board (the white advisory committee) and superintendent M. H. Bright having super-authority and making the decision of the former car of Russia and emperor of Germany), they was no further AMERICAN ACTOR SHOWS PREJUDICE WHILE IN EUROPE New York City—(ANP)—According to news newspapers received here, Jack Hylton, white American jazz conductor, has got himself into a whole lot of trouble with the French Association for the Protection of the Black Race, by forgetting that he was not a Frenchman and that his race prejudice got the better of his good judgment. It happened in a Brussels theatre, where he was appearing. There he met Nabib Mobilhuis, a black artist, who also was on the bill. When Hylton was asked about the same the same bill with a Negro he refused to "go on." To forestall trouble, the manager invented some sort of pretend for requesting Bongila to postpone his appearance and as a result the French Black Race, has decided to take up the matter with the Union of French Artists. AMERICA'S GREATEST WEEKLY NEWSPAPER HOUSTON, TEXAS, SATURDAY, JAN. 12, 1929 Some Unwilling To Serve It is currently rumored that some of the newly elected members have stated an unwillingness to serve on the board under the present disagreement and humiliating conditions, but have refused to serve for the truthfulness of these reports. The four retiring (or better, "retired") members of the Negro board are Rev. E. L. Harson, J. W. Hubert, H. P. Carter and C. F. Richardson. Board Tried To Heal Reef During the past year the breach between the colored staff and Houston Negroes on one side and the superintendent on the other, widened to such an extent that the retiring Negro board recommended the employment of a new superintendent on the beginning of the year; but the committee ignored this and other recommendations of the Negro board, arguably to employ and discharge hospital heads, despite the constitutional authority deputied to the colored board, but not the colored board, the wide advisory committee even exceeded its constitutional authority and designated the man to be the Negro board chairman of the Negro board. The board of the library "decisions" and the board handed down by this "supreme tribunal" to the Negro board of directors will be published and discussed in next week's issue of JULIUS ROSENWALD REAL SANTA CLAUS TO RACE CHILDREN Tuckekee Institute, Ala.—(ANP)—To the tots in the lower grades of the Children's House of Tuckekee Institute, Julius Rosenwald is more than 20 years old and is the chief philanthropist. He is in a real very sense Santa Claus. For annually Mr. Rosenwald sends toys and useful gifts to be distributed among the children of the kindergarten, the first, second and third grades of the school at Christmas time. Exercises at which the gifts were distributed were held at the Children's House Thursday before closing the school for the holidays. Mr. Rosenwald started this custom a number of years ago. He is the founder of the Booker T. Washington, founder of the Tuckekee Institute. He has continued it throughout the years much to the delight of the children. Whenever Mr. Rosenwald makes a trip to Tuckekee, he is always the director where he is enthusiastically greeted by the pupils.

Declaring that attorney and not race counted with him, Commissioner Whalen administered the oath of office to him on January 1, 1915, the first time in the city of New York that office or any office of equal rank has been given to a Negro. Dr. Wright is a Georgian and a graduate of the Carnegie School in the class of 1915.

NEGRO BANKER MAKES GIFT TO WHITE SCHOOL New York City—Objection to the location of a combined school for Negroes in Tennessee, on the part of whites, was met by a lesson in toleration by the school's banker, according to the N. A. C. A. p. quoting from an article in the current American Missionary. It appears that at the very time opposition to this colored school was raised by the Bishops Church, out over the radio for funds for a school for white students in the same state of Tennessee. One of the listeners to the appeal was Jesse Binga, who promptly sent his check. The banker, who was a member of the color of the Tennessee school which said: "When one reaches your plane of thought and feeling, he of necessity raised above racial or religious conditions, might be designated as the comic man-broad, sympathetic, tolerant, and as Lincoln expressed it, with malice toward none and charity for this.

TEXAS PASTOR RECEIVES CALL TO NASHVILLE REV. RUSSELL C. BARBOUR Nashville, Tenn.—Last week the first Baptist Church, Nashville, aided the Rev. Russell C. Barbour, A.B.A. B.A. m. pastor of the Macedonia Baptist Church, Galveston, Texas. The first Baptist Church is one of the most distinguished Baptist churches of the National Baptist Convention. It numbers among its former pastors many of the most distinguished scholars and pulpeters of the National Baptist Convention. Among them are: Dr. W. S. Elliottson, who pastored first Baptist Church for 17 years; the late R. M. Gilbert, Sr., famous Colgate University professor, and president of Roger Williams and the University of the University of Toronto. Among the national leaders who are members of the first Baptist Church are: Dr. L. G. Jordan of the historical department of the National Baptist Convention; Dr. E. D. Frieder, auditor and efficiency expert of the National Baptist Convention; Editor of Dr. E. D. Frieder's scholarly Prof. Dr. J. T. Brown, eminent theologian and editor, as well as many Rev. Barbau succeeded his father, the late Dr. A. Barbau, in the pastorate of the University in 1921. His father was pastoring church when he was born and remained there 33 years. Having attended college, he graduated from Houston College in the class of 1916; graduating with honors from Morehouse College in 1921. He then, gradually taking his master's degree at Colgate University, Hamilton, N. Y., in 1921. Rev. Barbau is eminently fitted to carry on in the Athens of the ... Galveston, Texas—When reached at his home by an Informer reporter who incurred wounds, or not he had, he I have 90 to answer, and I am thinking. He also added: "Texas is dead and the spirit is gone—far as many of the Texas Baptist ministers are concerned, so we have a state and we youngsters are in a dam scramble for office." The state and the youngsters in the Baptist Missionary and Educational Convention will be walking the streets with two shoestores and the Baptist Missionary will know they have my fears that the intelligent layman of the pulpit state willick us and take charge themselves. FEDERAL SOLDIER REMEMBERS SLAVE IN HIS BEQUESTS Cleveland, Ohio—(ANP)—At the beginning of the Civil War, a young white man by the name of T. Spencer Knight, enlisted in the Union Army and for the duration of the war fought for the physical freedom of the Nebraska soldier, which was probated here Thursday showed that his interest in the Negro still existed by bequests amounting to $3,000 to promote the educational and religious freedom of the group. These bequests were made to the Claremont Home for Colored People St. James A. M. E. Church and the Pleasant Hill Academy located in Pleasant Hill, Tennessee. FIRST SECTION—NUMBER 34 Reapportionment Bill Before Nation Solons; Stubborn Battle Seen Reapportionment Bill Before Nation Solons; Stubborn Battle Seen Michigan Congressman Introduces Resolution To Reduce States' Representation In Congress—Bay State Representative To Join Forces In Pushing Fight—Dixie Solons Excited, But Plan Hectic Encounter Washington, D. C.—(ANP)—The old saying, "When thieves fall out, honest men get their just deserts," can be aptly applied to the interest of the Negro and of those who are fighting in the present congressional formation of president. But the tie to reallocate the number of representatives is essentially a conflict between the Southern states, which have more representatives than they and certain Northern states which are denied their proper number. When Representative Clarence McLeod, Michigan Republican, introduced his reapportionment bill, he aimed it at all of those states which he believes have been cheating Michigan of her proper representation. Most of those states are of the Southern democracy where the Negro is disfranchised. Mississippi Governor Condones Lynch Law; Treats Horror Lightly New York—The state of Mississippi, whose two lynchings in the past week raised the year's record in the United States from 9 to 11, is called the "plague spot of lynching in America" in a telegram sent to Governor Theodore Bilbo by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. In the telegram, Mississippi "anarchic indifference to human life and standards of common decessory essential to civilization" are hailed as symptoms of the low place of that state in education, per capita wealth, industry and general progress. The fight now being waged in congress is revealing the extent of the cheating that has been going on. The fourteenth amendment to the constitution is issued ahead of the Negro the right of suffrage, but in Southern states, through one device or another, most of the Negro population is kept from the polls. The same amendment which contracts for the Negro's franchise further provides the right to vote in the states deprived of the several states according to their numbers, counting the whole number of persons in each state, excluding Indians not taxed, and it still further provides that such representation shall be denied in proportion to vote except for crime or treason. It is estimated that if the fourteenth Mississippi Condones I Treats H New York—The state of Mine the past week raised the year's 9 to 11, is called the "plague s telegram sent to Governor Theo ciation for the Advancement of In the telegram, Mississippi's life and standards of common are hailed as symptoms of the lo per capital wealth, industry and The telegram to Governor Billo, signed by Wagen Weldon Johnson, secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, reads as follows: "The agent again stands pilloried before the civilized world as the plague户 of lynching in America, having raised the total for the United States during 1928 from 9 to 11, with two brutal murders in the last weeks of the year. One of these actresses was the burning alive of a man at the stake. Five of the 11 men are charged against Mississippi."

Twice the electoral votes to which the South is not entitled while disfranding the Negro would easily determine the result in a close presidential election. Representative George H. Tinkham (representative Mass.), has previously accused Senator John McCain of force the fourteenth amendment.

The institution is one of the oldest in the country and for years has served the public of Philadelphia and the country as an institution for the care of the sick and a training school for young colored men in the profession. The institution has fostered a partnership for graduate physicians. The increase of the population of the city and the number of young men and women seeking training at the institution have brought about a crisis in the population, passed over with increased facilities. According to the information from the campaign headquarters at 312 Broad Street, the sum sought will be expended as follows: $30,000 to liquidate mortgage indebtedness, $15,000 to complete the new nurses' home, THE HOUSTON INFORMER, SATURDAY, JANUARY 12, 1921 PHILLY CHURCH GOES TO COURT WITH TROUBLES Philadelphia, P. a.-(NPL) - Religious workers and others received a shock when it was learned that Samuel D. Brown, Wainwright, William Sneed, H. Byrd, Adela H. Byrd, John C. Byrd, and members of the union of King Baptist Church, filed a bill of complaint against the pastor, the deacons and trustees of the church. For sometime trouble has been brewing in this church, and evidences of the abuse of the bill of complaint cite several instances of irregular and unjust rulings on the part of the pastor, the complainants being of the opinion that he desired to enact certain rules for his own good, the well-being of the congregation, and that is said to desire continuation in office of the present boards of deacons and trustees, notwithstanding the fact that Benjamin J. Bunn, it is stated in the bill of complaint, has not been able to get the necessary bond of RB, to be bound by the church for its treasurer. Charge Pastor With Keeping Money According to the complainants, the pastor of the church, the Rev. James E. Kirkland has unlawfully and wrongly obtained from the church amount of $2,000 and, over which he has appropriated to his own use. As far as can be accepted the money trouble grew out of an arrangement whereby the pastor was to receive the money each month, the morning, the afternoon and evening collections being considered his. The fourth Sunday is Communion Sunday, when numbers of the church members are counted monthly. It is charged that the Rev. Kirkland entered into a conspiracy with the treasures of the church, or certain of them to include in his salary, in addition to the three collections, all money received for the church on each and every occasion from Monday after the third Sunday and to including Monday after the fourth Sunday. The parties in complaint state that the Rev. Kirkland has fallen to turn over the money and that after having been requested so to do.

Lesson for January 13 LESSON TEXT—1 John 1:5-2:6 OLDEN TEXT—EITHER may that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and our sin. He is faithful and to forgive us our sin, and to clean us from our sin. **TOPIC - Grivelling God.** **INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC.** **INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC.** **YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC.** **Sin and Its Consequences.** There is much disparity between the subject and the Scripture unit so far. We have not yet presented the subject topically, using many texts. it is proper that we should first give a definition of sin. We have translated sin in the Hebrew and the Greek signifies "to deviate from the law." Malpractice, therefore a going aside, may be a standard sin. Sin is also the transgression of the law (I 1: 4: 3). We also have a transgression of the law. Deeper than all this is the condition of the out, of which all thought and accuse us of sin. We have a Pascal conscience (Rom. 7: 8, 8). 1. The Origin of Sin (Gen. 3:1-24). Man was placed on probation in the Bible because Adam was created with the posibility of character, but not with character. This he could get only through testing. He would, after alternative creature bearing the likeness and image of God, made character possible and inevitable. Character is the resultant of choice. God used was most simple God issued just one prohibition. Alongside the tree of good and evil was the tree of life, Satan, a personal being. God and forbidden. Following this, an indulged out of Eve's mind and appealed to innocent apprehension. She gazed upon and lusted after that which God and forbidden. Following this, this account we see that sin originated, so far as the race is concerned, in the free choice of the head of the devil. This account he heraldly has passed upon all mankind. 1. The University of Sin (Rom. 3:10-18). By the use of numerous quotations from Scripture, Paul informs that every member of the race is guilty of sin. He does not admit of an exception. 1. The Fate of Sinners (Gen. 3:8-11). The disobedience of man greatly displeased God and He resolved to do the same from the face of the earth. God's nature is such that he must be punished. The Source of Sin (Mark 7:14-21) All evil thinking and practice spring out of the heart of man. The heart stands for the very center and foundation of man; think vile thoughts is because of their vile nature, which is the result of original sin. The Sin of Believers (I John 1:5-2:3) 1. How perceived (v. 5). God is here declared to be light. Therefore sin is perceived through the glorious light of the Divine being. No one can see God without seeing himself a vile sinner. To claim fellowship with God while walking in darkness is the lie of life. 2. The Divine remedy for sin (v. 7). It is the blood of Jesus Christ. Without the shedding of blood there is no remission of sin. 3. The believer's responsibility (v. 9). It is to confess his sin. It is only when we are conscious of our sins in the light of God that we are disposed to make confession of them. 4. God grants forgiveness and cleansing (vv. 9, 10). Because of His provision in the atonement of Jesus Christ, God is able on the basis of justice to forgive the sinner who confesses his sin. Because of His faithfulness in dealing with His children on the basis of the finished work of Christ. He not only forgives, but He cleanses them from all sin. 5. Christ the believer's advocate (2:1, 2). For believers to sin is not necessary, but the advocate who champions his cause in case of sin is the Lord Jesus Christ Himself, who on Chivary's crus made a prostitution for his sin. & Christa's followers obey him (v. 5). Those who have experienced God's saving grace render obedience to Him Word. The Love of Christ A stream can rise no higher than the source. It takes the love of Christ to draw water from the sky above himself, sweep away the sins he cannot conquer, and fill the earth with life. Wealth Wealth is a weak anchor and glory cannot support a man; this is the law of God, that vultures only to firm and shaken by a tempest - Pythagoras.

THE HOUSTON INFORMER, SATURDAY, JANUARY 19, 1929 THE MIRROR THE MIRROR (Continued from Page One) don't try to rise above your racial fellows and associates. Who was it that said that the Negro race is one helix of a people? Apropos of the absent-mindedness and lack of thought on the part of the people of the United States, their New Year's Day game here with Atlanta University Hurricanes, which resulted in the Texans virtually tamed by the Panthers in the last 35 seconds of play, reminds us that few people think before they college students or otherwise. Few people seem to want to be the best thinkers, thinking, and hence they first and then often lament afterwards. The Literary Digest complained explained that 20,000-000 Americans, who were mailed a presidential poll by this national week, were the ones who voted for election of last November, replied to the questionnaire. The people who are ruling and running the world, as well as ruling and running the people who do not take time or go to the trouble of racially speaking, we do not think enough; for if we did we would not be running our race on a more solid racial structure capable of withstanding and enduring the storms and Thinking men and races work to cater for their common good, and they over the things that vitally and directly affect them and theirs. They also over the things that vitally and directly affect them and theirs with an eye to the future, while the non-thinkers must content themselves with the crumbs which fall from the thinkers. The thinkers are the men who reach the summits of the peaks, while those who exist in the valley, never knowing or enjoying the thrill and pleasure present in the mountain-top experience and activity. Wake up, folks, and become both the doer and thereby join the thinkers in thinking in big terms and putting over bigger programs. In a recent demise at Nashville, the thinkers and doer, the curry member of the first graduation class at Fisk University, the first Dixie Negro to receive the bachelor of arts degree, the curry member of the first graduation class to hold a professional chair in his alma mater, was a concrete example of the possibilities within the grasp of young people, well your talent for serving humanity. Paying away at the age of 82 years around $100,000,000, truly bequeathing his entire life's fortune to his alma mater and the cause of the world. This is a happy sign of race progress; for when any race possesses men who become so embued with the idea of serving their race and humanity as this venerable Nashville teacher and druggist, that race is beginning to build on a safe and sure foundation. These lines are prompted not because of the handsome size of the legacy to Pisk from this noble race man, but because of the spirit which impelled the benefaction; for, after all, it is said and done, THE SPIRIT IS THE THING which counts in the final analysis and in the reckoning day. Born in 1846, Prof. Burrus had lived a full life and he did not permit the fact that he was born under slave parentage to interfere with or deter him in a useful career. He did not sit around and whine about his said and baker rate, but opened him to self service and then rendered this service wherever he found the opportunity. He made his own sunlight and then stood in it. Successful lives are not measured in material possessions and carnal things, but in the impress made upon the hearts of one's fellowmen; and if this is the measure of true greatness, Prof. Burrus's life should serve to inspire others of the race who are trying to carry on under adverse circumstances; for there is much truth in the advantage he can who thinks he can and conversely, "he can't who thinks he can." Without being personal, but bringing the matter home to you, what are your priorities? Lift your less fortunate brother from the low levels of ignorance and supervision to the higher ground of education, refinement and service?

MANY SOLOISTS TO APPEAR WITH FISK GLEE CLUB The Fisk Glee Club, which sings here Sunday, 3 p.m., at the City Auditorium, is well-known for its solo work as for ensemble singing. The very nature of the spirituals makes it necessary for almost every member of the club to be a soloist. The feeling and spirit of the leader's opening line often sets the pace for the whole group's response. The men who sing the "traditional solos" are very carefully chosen and trained; they are given many opportunities to lead the jubilee songs in the daily chapel services and on all occasions when Fisk students sing. There are eight young men in the glee club this year who may be called upon for solos. As Fisk University operates on the quarter system and as all of these young men soloists earn part of their exposure through school, the director of the glee club can never be sure just which young men will have the responsibility for the solos, months in advance. Their voices are among the best in school and the university realizes that there should be a system of scholarships and loans that would insure keeping the young men in school without repeated breaks both in their college work and in their service of song to their alma mater. The university has now at work many years of scholarship-faced for some talented soloists as will appear here Sunday afternoon. A section of the auditorium will be set aside for the white music lovers. Children under 12 years of age will buy their tickets at the booth at City Auditorium. Special rates have been made for them. All ticket agents are requested to make reports Saturday or early Sunday afternoon at City Auditorium. Call Fairfax 1224 for further information. HEY, FOLKS!

REAPPORTION tory and ministerial, delegating the authority to the secretary of commerce in whose department the council is taken. The total number of representatives in the population basis of representation would be increased. McLeod has enlisted the support of congress from his state and other states who are protesting against the failure to reapportion on the basis of the 1818 population basis up all legislation in this session of congress unless some action is taken on McLeod's bill. In the very nature of things, Tinkham will be welcomed as an ally by both the North and the South. McLeod and Tinkham is to secure a proper distribution of representation. The McLeod bloc will welcome whatever strength Tinkham may bring and the combination of McLeod and Tinkham will put the cleaning South at the center of the nation. Facing with dilemma of either having their present representation in congress and in the electoral college or of withdrawing devices which have been used to keep the Negro from voting, the white South may become the majority and fair toward the Negro citizen. In this connection it is important to note, as it has been revealed repeatedly in congress, that the harriers to the proper exercise of the franchise by the Negro in the South are not stated. The Negro himself refrains from demanding the ballot because his experience has been that the attempt to vote would stir up ill-fellowship and would probably endanger his property or his life. But his vote is worth more than either his former position in the South, even in the South, are of the opinion that the Negro should awaken and begin the fight for the ballot right in the South, whatever the cost. The fight being made by McLoud and Tinkham will probably have the effect of nullifying the opposition to the Southern polling places and of destruing the tendency on the part of polls officials in the South of creating ingestion and peculiar tests for Negro voters. At any rate, these leaders are urging the Negro in the South, not to give up and surreptitiously attack and fighting, if need be, for their just participation in the affairs of their government.

On my arrival at the school, I went to the principal, Prof. E. O. Smith, who and the registrar, Miss Eunice Lumpkins, in conversation with a few pupils, to come to school late, and who later received little white slips which adhere to the same curriculum they at the same time attached them to main a few minutes after school hours for further interview with the principal. My first question put to Principal Smith was: "Why do you Wheatleyteacher school as you do instead of as all others do?" His reply was: "We want the Negro in America, which had colored poet, under which was the name 'Phillis Whistleman,' signed This question settled, and it had bothered me considerably, I must admit, I turned my attention to the school proper. As this was my first opportunity to see Wheately at work, I was much interested in whatever I saw. The principal has always impressed me as being a thoroughly efficient and wide-awake school man, and I was not in the least surprised to find his school pervaded with an atmosphere of freedom which was easily discernible in the pupils as well as the teachers. There seemed to be no artificial effort at discipline, but everybody appeared to be just natural or normal folks, going about their usual day's business.

ADVERTISER: PEOPLE'S PAPER PAGE SIX FIRST IN COMPLETENESS PRESIDENT RHOADS OUTLINES PROGRAM FOR STATE TEACHERS AT RECENT CONFERENCE IN CITY By PRESIDENT J. J. RHOADS Dallas, Texas Within recent years the Colored State Teachers' Association of Texas has made substantial progress. His spirit of scientific inquiry and constructive legislation; its business methods are sound, safe, and progressive; its influence and program of service are rapidly being projected in great state; and its fair name is beheld throughout the nation. The Marshall law makes many phases, a work of excellence priority, with that of any other state organization of teachers in the South, the education of the teachers of the North, and other of Negro education in this state, who had even a few worthy movements, are entitled to the highest praise and commendation. The worthy movement, are entitled to the highest praise and commendation. The membership in the Colored State Teachers' Association of Texas is a Today, we stand on the vantage ground of *n* noteworthy past and face the new year. And it begins to come my high privilege and pleasant duty to offline, a program that I hope will ultimately meet the needs and expectations of our great and growing Right of Democratic Participation to Be More Widely Extended And may I emphasize this one point at the very outset; namely, the pro-actives must be expected that this y car is to be successfully executed, those of the staff who must support the leader must seek religious to improve ourselves in knowledge, spirit and practice, and that this greater unity of purpose the important services of our organization. We must actively participate in the administration and active participation in the administration, and must magnify the importance of these phases of the work which may be regarded by many as relatively unimportant. You will be interested to know, I am sure, that the program as planned will be held in Houston at 1290 people, including 500 or more public school pupils of Houston. I refer here to people who met the criteria of the program during the year, or participate in the membership call which will be followed in this meeting. Moral and Spiritual Values In Education to Be Stressed We have abundant evidence to support the importance of early formal in its organization and procedures; and that the major discipline of FAR is its anti-social policies and methods operate to suppress both the formation of the school's chief aims, namely, the formation of students and knowledge which are indispensable for particularly active learning and to which it is entitled, not so much in later years as in the present. They may commit an unreasonable sin against the personality of the child, rendering intellectual and moral development should be aggressive, courougous, critical and ethical, and other child in America, which his heart craves. The present day Mégre child is within the years of a long life, and is therefore an important child in America, needs that training which refines and liberates his moral and In the face of this fundamental need, it shall be my purpose to exercise the presidency of the Colored State Teacher's Association of Texas, mainly by a broad understanding of the school as a social institution; in magnifying the unrestness of the child's personality, the need for a more adequate of democratic participation in the life of the school; and in adding our own agritic and techniques required for the larger, more important, and more genuinely satisfying services which each school can provide. The Challenge of the Rural Child and His School to Be Answered Approximately 110,000 Negro schoolstics live and attend school in the common school districts of Texas. Curs is a rural state. But short terms, inadequate buildings and equipment, poor salaries, the lure of city life, etc., have alienated the affections of Negro teachers generally from the rural school. A relatively small percentage of rural teachers is in life, much with the life of a rural child. Most of them live in the cities and may be town. And even though the conditions about which complaint is generally made are being rapidly improved, the perverted psychology of the average teacher persists. I dare say that teachers who are serving in the rural districts and small towns of Texas by choice are relatively few. Our colleges must share the blame for this situation; if not, certainly they can do much to improve it. Too the state and our association must come in for their share of responsibility. The chains of the rural child on the teaching profession are just as great as those of the child who must live in the city; and the former is just as deserving and promising as the latter. It seems to me, therefore, that the Colored State Teachers Association of Texas should give the rural child and his problems a larger place in its program. This we will do.

For years it has been creeping along the shores of the world, warding the sky and its hand gripping hesitantly about in search of an upright object upon which to rest its weight and lift itself to its feet. As a result, Negro business is materialized in the development of a small group of business leaders with vision and courage, Negro business has raised itself up and today it is ready to take its first steps forward. Dark days will come for some of the institutions manned entirely by members of the race and dark days will vanish before the constant advancement of the business leadership, but the bulk of our commercial enterprises will prepare with increasing regularity as the years roll on. Business is business, and the Negro owned institution must measure up to the requirements set by the other institutions of its kind or fail as a result. The Negro community adversity, and ambition have bred for the group a small army of trained business leaders to whom all Negro business may look for support, guidance, and constant development. They in turn are imparting their knowledge to younger men and women who have passed on and guide Negro business forward till it shall walk upright with all the vigor and confidence demanded by the competition of modern times. And so, we look forward to the New Year and plan for the future of the commercial institutions and our race. We look forward to the men and women who are leaders in our economic life—the those who have C. R. Yerwood, M. D. MEDICINE AND SURGERY Specializing in *Diseases of infant* maternal health.

The most casual analysis of our commercial successes indicates that Negroes flock to those fields where some individual has made an unusual or spectacular achievement. We find that the number of successful overcrowded, while ones with equal or greater opportunity have no or no recruits. But that duplication of successful effort has its decided effect on the growth of progressive enterprises launched by men and developed in other cities than the one where success is first achieved.

No college can look back upon its record without finding one that the teams were more evenly matched than in any previous season. Such a condition naturally kindled more interest than ever before, and all games were well attended. The conference did not pick a champion team for 1928. On the whole, intercollegiate football among colored colleges was no doubt, no doubt, no doubt, as that played in any part of the country. The coaching of the teams is getting better each year, and without question the play is imitating the mania among players and spectators. The players have also mastered the technique of intricate systems of Despite the bitterness of the conference struggles and the interest in interpersonal clash between Tuskegee and Wilberforce will live long in the memories of the team's victories in interpersonal clash between nerve-wrecking games ever played in the South. Tuskegee and Wilberforce will live long in the memories of the team's nerve-wrecking games ever played in the South. Tuskegee and Wilberforce intercepted a Wilberforce pass and ran 98 yards for a touchdown. As the game went along with Tuskegee and Wilberforce with Tuskegee in possession of the ball on its 12-yard line, it looked as if the Tigers would win. There was a chance to win, but the three plays at the line, 10 seconds left to play. The fourth try and the point scored by Wilberforce missed the try for point. Score: Tuskegee 6, Wilberforce 6. Impact: The game of importance, Howard University defeated Atlanta University, 12 to 7. It was another of the characterful games of the season. An over-anxious youngster, who did not keep both feet in the end zone on a pass, probable Tuskegee University player for a victory. Another intersectional game of note was the angled shot from the Normal Bowl, in Cramton Bowl, Montgomery, and the Lansing back found a hole in the left back, and slipped over for the winning touchdown in the last four minutes of the game. Tuskegee, because of its past history, and looked upon as being among the best teams watched closely. Clark University defeated Tuskegee 12 to 9, making this the first time the plains of Alabama in six years.

College, had the best season in the conference and Wilberforce out of the conference; won from Morris Y. 19 to 13, and Tennessee State 12 to 0. Coach Jacobs' Alabama State Normal Hornets were well versed in the fundamentals of the game, fast, tricky, clever with passes and possessing a great kicker. They rose to their highest in the 6-6 tie with Tuskegee. That day the Hornets played unbestable football. Against Atlanta to University, the Alabama State Normal team played real football, but Atlanta kicked the extra point and finished on the long end of a 7 to 6 score. Against Morehouse the team did not find itself, and the Maroons won 25 to 6. The Clark game found the Hornets at a low ebb, and no match for the Panthers. Clark won 28 to 0. The Hornets defeated Talladega 13 to 0, Miles Memorial College 24 to 0, Tennessee State 6 to 0, and Florida A. and M. 6 to 0.

Morehouse College was handicapped by a difficult schedule and weakened morale because of the very unfortunate death of a star player, injured in practice. But under the leadership of B. T. Harvey, the team showed lot of fight and should be one of the longest in the conference next season. The 24th United States Infantry was played to a 7-7 tie, Morris Brown defeated 6 to 0; Alabama State 25 to 0. The Tigers lost to Clark 2 to 6; Atlanta 12 to 7, and Tuskeeges 20 to 0. Howard beat Morehouse 1 to 0 in an intersectional game. Bluefield also defeated the Tigers at Columbus, Ohio, in another intersectional game, 40 to 0. Johnson C. Smith was defeated 19 to 13. Talladega College, under W. H. Kindle, did not enjoy the success that had been the lot of other Talladega elevations of Kindle. The team was green. In the Atlanta game the Tornado waged a mighty battle against one of the best teams in the South, but the secondary defense cracked in the last four minutes of play and Atlanta won 13 to 7. The Tornado defeated Miles 19 to 13, lost to Alabama State Normal 13 to 0, Fisk 12 to 0, tied Knoxville College 13 to 13, and on Thanksgiving Day Talladega fell before the determined onlaught of Tuskeeges. Tennessee State also under a new coach regime and very little hold-over. The team last season losing all except one of its conference games. Harry Long, former coach and coach of the champion Paul Quinn and the 1924, is the new Tennessee State coach. The season in no way was bad, and coach against long's coaching ability. In it he was that he is the Moses to lead them out of football wiltersman. A. A. and M.

First Team Fowler, Virginia Seminary, left end Thomas, Morgan College, left tackle Thompson, Bluefield, center guard Thompson, Bluefield, center guard Lamar, Atlanta, right guard Gallen, Bluefield, right tack guard Wiley, Bluefield, right end Cole, Howard, quarterback Stevenon, Tunkergee, right halfback Marshall, Howard, left halfback Second Team Drew, Blufffield, left end Latinimer, Househouse, left tackle Hampton, Hampton, left guard Patterson, Patterson, left guard Slaughter, Atlanta, right guard Gaines, Hampton, right tackle Gaines, Hampton, right tackle Harding, Wiley, (C) quarterback Wiggins, Blufffield, right halfback Halfback, halfback Graves, Blufffield, fullback Third Team Jeffries, Bluefield, left end Cunningham, Bluefield, left tackle Lewis, Wilberforce, left guard Hayes, Howard, center Drew, Howard, right guard Williamson, St. Paul, right tackle Henderson, Virginia Seminary, right end Payne, Howard (C), quarterback Clark, Morgan College, right half back Butler, Livingstone, left half back McConnell, W.

S. and C.; Townsend, Shaw; Stanley, Atlanta. In selecting ends this year Fowler stands out as the best end in colored football with Washington of W. Va. C. I. a close second. They proved their all-round ability and figured strongly in everything their teams did. The tackles have waged a very close fight this season. Gallion is the ranking player of the first degree, in every play, and an influential leader. His doggedness proves he has stamina, a relic of the first degree, in every play, as captain of the first team that includes Morgan is the most brilliant player of the most any play that comes his way can pass and is very good at breaking up. The guards are unusually good. We consider Rogle the best we have seen this year. He is the most dependable linemen can play anywhere on line, can back up the line well. Due to versatility and his dependable linemen, the centers are very strong with Thompson of Bluefield, Patterson of Tualatin and Hayes of Howard, the field is undoubtedly the most consistent. He is a deadly tackler and in most games he is undoubtedly the most consistent. He is a rangely player and in most games he is a rangely player and in most games he is a rangely player with keen James, Talladega; A. Olm, Clark; Brooks, Fike; Reeves, Miles; and M.

Panthers To Meet Wildcats Oct.21; Langston Replaced Marshall, Texas.—According to information released by Business Manager H. J. Mason of the championship Wiley College Wildcats, the Wiley-Langston game, which for the past four years has been the chief early season game in the Southwest, will be replaced by a Wiley-Prairie View clash at the Dallas State Fair on Monday, October 21. The announcement comes not as a surprise, as there has been a great deal of agitation throughout the state for this contest on the big day. Mr. Mason refused to say just what the real reason for the change was, but it is generally thought that the financial opportunities will surpass those of the Wiley-Langston game. After four years the best crowd that the Wiley-Langston game can draw is about 5000 and practically the entire attendance, with the exception of a couple of hundred, are supporters of Wiley, the Oklahoma fans seeming to take little interest in the game. With Prairie View, who has the largest alumni in the state, a party to the clash, it is expected that the attendance at last year's State Fair game will be easily doubled and possibly tripled. It was stated further by Manager Mason that while the Wiley-Langston game would not be played at the State Fair, a home and home agreement will be offered the Oklahomaans, as Wiley has no desire to sever athletic relations with the Sooner State Lions. football sense and the ability to play the game to no small degree. Patterned to the call for the second team due to his coolness. The list for quarterbacks is narrowed down. This is an important de- fence. The players who few were able to keep up the work throughout the entire grind. This is a department where experience, alert- ness, and all-round ability are essential. The passing of Marshall and kicking of Stevenson is unque, to say the least. Marshall is unquestionably the best forward passer in colored football, can run the ends, hit the line, can back up line well, and very good at taking out an end. Stevenson makes a good running mate for Marshall as he is hard to tackle, fast, a great dodger, follows interference well, and above all, a wonderful kicker. He is the most orthodox kicker I have ever seen. I am surprised that his coach did not make more of a specialty of this department. There are a number of outstanding fullbacks this year from which to make a selection. Lane of A. and T., the human battering ram of the Carolina Aggies, comes through with flying colors to be placed over the rest of the lot. He is a great open field runner, wonderful interferer, and passes well. Graves and McConnell are of the hard crashing type of full-backs, who can be called upon to make several yards constantly, Graves having a slight edge over McConnell. For this position the most fitted man is Coles of Howard. He can do anything a coach might ask of a player. He is a seven-threat-man, passes, punts, drop kicks, runs the ends well, backs up line, good interferer, and a good general. His good generalship comes as a result of a thorough knowledge of the strength and individual ability of the opposing teams, together with his all-round ability as a player. He is a fighter from start to finish, believes he can do anything any other player can do and is very hard to hurt. He is the best receiver of forward passes I have seen. The halfbacks are very plentiful this year—men who would delight the heart of any coach. We have a good selection of stellar backs in Stevenson of Tuskegee, Marshall of Howard, Wiggins of Bluefield, Tynes of Wilberforce, Clark of Morgan, and Butler of Livingstone. The play of these men throughout the season is all that could be expected. Stevenson and Marshall make a pair of wonderful halfbacks, a combination of unusual ability. Injured Players Some players this season have suffered injuries which have caused them to play more games. Some players deserve some mention because all an-American selection would have been incomplete without their nama, W. Va. C. I. Young, Brown and Hawkins, Howard Marin, Lincoln Street, such ability that they had been able to play all season would certainly be selected in the selection of an all-American team. GEORGIA JOHNSON PUBLISHES POEMS New York—(ANP)—Anouncement has just been made of the publication of a book of new poems, "An Autumn Love Cycle," from the pen of Georgia Douglas Johnson by Harold Volkman. The two volumes published by Mr. Johnsage are the distinction of being hailed foremost woman poet of her race with a range that gave her talent an universal scope by no less an authority than William Stanley. Brithawite, Mr. Johnson is the widow of the late William Volkman, who preceded Ben David as Republican committeeman from Georgia. TIGERS DEFEAT HOWARD BISONS BY LARGE SCORE TIGERS DEFEAT HOWARD BISONS BY LARGE SCORE (By J. H. BIRNIE) Atlanta. Ga.—They put down another victory for Morehouse cagts Saturday afternoon and Howard was the victim by a 51-23 score. Morehouse was the master in every phase of the game. The Tigers took the lead as the starting whistle blew and ran up 9 points before the Bisons collected their first tally. Morehouse was in the lead from then on and their lead was never threatened by Howard. The half ended 22-13. The second half was a competition of the first, with Morehouse getting faster and more confident with each additional basket. Many of the shots that were made to count by the man-room team were from close-under the basket, the ball being worked there by intelligent snappy passes. Morehouse's defense was of a quite caliber. Howard's forwards being forced to take the majority of their steer from the region outside the foil line, from which the point of accuracy of the ball was not high. I, Archer led the Morehouse stack with six baskets, being followed by a sub, Banks, who dropped four; while Crawford and Hawkins were excellent at guard. Williams and Hinton were the outstanding lights for Howard. HOWARD CAGERS CAPTURE THREE TILTS IN SOUTH Washington, D. C.-Coach John Burz's Basketball team took the first three games in its intercollegiate tournament. W. Coleman, G. Smith and Clark University, G. Smith and Clark University, played Greenberro, N. C. on Johnson, by Howard with a score of 20-12. First half it was difficult for Howard to score, but the small court which accounted for the teams going along at a fairly even pace allowed to a communication, phenomenal passing and the splendid attacks of Wood and Simpson. Howard went away to a communication and initial victory. Johnson 3. Johnson 6. Smith into camp on their own home court to the score of 22-18. Howard went away to Smith, mastering the South rivals with the Johnson taking high score honors for the visitors. Atlanta, Georgia, Howard defended Clark University 42-41, in the most sensational game of the Southern Conference, winning the winning shot in the last last seconds of play. WHITE STUDENT GIVES BLOOD TO SAVE NEED Macon, Ga.—(ANP) Lee Bettle, a dining hall attendant at Merger University, and a campus personage for years, was able to leave the hospital Wednesday because a white student permit transition operation for him. When Lee was taken to the hospital, physicians said he needed blood at once and numbers of students came forward with offers to give it.

HOUSTON, TEXAS, SATURDAY, JANUARY 12, 1929 THE HOUSTON NEGRO HOSPITAL Several months ago one of the local race newspapers asked, editorially, what was the trouble with Houston Negro Hospital? This same query was often proposed by The Informer during 1826. The editor of The Informer (readers will pardon this personal conference), having served as a member of the colored board of directors during the past year, and having observed the hospital from practically all angles, is not convinced that this Third Ward institution will never function as the donor desires as long as the present system of management or mismanagement obtains. In the first place, the hospital needs a superintendent who does not think himself or herself superior to and better than the other members of the Negro race; one who is not always advertising the fact that he has no Negro blood in his veins; one who has not been a failure at every place where he has seen this type of service before; one who will not pimp and serve in the stool-pigeon rule to white folks; one who will cooperate with the colored staff and will make friends for the institution among members of the Negro race; one who will not devote his time and energy to "running down" the doctors and members of the colored board, and one who will have some degree of respect for and confidence in the colored hospital staff and personnel, as well as board members. Next, the hospital needs as contact man between the institution, the white advisory committee, and Negro board, a white man who is not a car or absolute monarch, and one who does not treat with and regard the Negro board as monkey-men, jumping jacks or mere mankinians; one who does not consider the constitution and by-laws of the institution as a "mere scrap of paper"; one who will respect Negro womanhood and will not refer to our leading women as "Martha," "Mary," etc.; one who has some faith in the ability of the Negro to serve his race efficiently and intelligently, and whose opinion of the Negro's ability, efficiency, proficiency and moral tone is not influenced by the tattlings of black men. In reality, under the present regime and system, there is absolutely no need for a Negro board at this hospital; for the colored board has no authority except that granted it through the tolerance (?) and kindness (?) of the white advisory committee, the ruling czar and czarina. Here is an all-star hospital team which must be invincible! Despite the fact that the constitution of the Houston Negro Hospital, which was drafted by white members of the present advisory committee, delegates certain functions to the Negro board, no black board has yet been permitted to exercise these functions without interference and nullification on the part of the white advisory committee. To illustrate our contention, we shall cite an instance or two: Despite June, at a meeting attended by one or two members of the white advisory committee, the Negro board of directors the superintendent and group of civic workers, it was decided to conduct a drive for the sale of hospital certificates to the Negroes of this community. It was further decided by the colored board that some literature, dealing with that particular campaign, be printed and distributed by the workers during the drive; that receipt books be printed (since the hospital had none available at that time) so that every person paying any amount on a hospital certificate was not paid to the said hospital. The even though the sign of the Colored Young Women's Christian Association cafeteria for the workers, cost of same not to expend $25. Despite the fact that the Negro board voted unanimously for the printing and luncheon, the czar held up the printing bill for several months, arguing that neither he nor the white advisory committee had authorized the expenditure or knew anything about it; notwithstanding the fact that the money to meet the expense came out of the memberships sold during the effort. As for the luncheon, even until this late date the Y. W. C. A. has not yet received the check for $25, and every bill which has been called to the hospital has been pigeon-holed or intentionally inlaid. After Prof. L. M. Terrell was virtually forced to sever his relations with the hospital as financial agent, due to certain things which we shall probably discuss in a subsequent issue (we have the inside facts on the Terrell matter), the white advisory committee—or two or three members of it—suggested that the Negro board employ Prof. A. J. Johnson as financial agent. This the Negro board finally did, but when the monthly receipts brought in by Mr. Johnson did not come up to the expectations of the ex-diplomat, the New York board together and cugging the discontinuation of Mr. Johnson's services? No, this czar simply ignored the Negro board and gave Mr. Johnson his "walking players," so to speak. When the St. Joseph Infirmary recently demolished and raised its colored ward, and local white doctors were forced to find another place for their Negro patients, even though the written laws of the Houston Negro Hospital expressly stipulate the procedure in such situations, the kaiser ignored both the Negro hospital staff and the Negro patients. In the case of white doctors, to carry their black patients to Houston Negro Hospital and there perform their operations and render medical services in direct competition with colored doctors. a situation which the donor of the hospital tried to forestall and prevent by stating, both on the bronze tablet adorning the hospital's walls and the hospital's constitution, the object and purpose of this eleemosynary institution. When the Negro board conferred with the czar and sought to convince him that his act was diametrically at variance with the laws, rules and regulations of the Houston Negro Hospital, this noted hospital authority and expert, who it was alleged, once served in a similar capacity with another local hospital but was performed virtually invited the Negro directors to take a swift trip to the plutocratic regions; and informed the black board that he knew his ground and did not give a rap about their attitude to the contrary, or words and actions to that effect. When the Negro hospital staff and the Harris County Afro-American Medical Society' brought charges against Superintendent M. H. Bright, alleging many acts and offenses which the Negro board considered grave enough to give a fair and impartial hearing the can interposed and averred that the fight was beaten launched against his administration of the colored hospital and not against the superintendent of the Houston Negro Hospital. POLITIC BY KELLY The year 1929 cant turn in the poor Negro race. A will be inaugurated in the city. Mr. Hoover comes with a backroom which are wholly terial. He is an amparal excellent of several speeches he showed him to be made known by Blaine. The fourth amendments do no The present superintendent, apparently giving heed to advice received from sources not racial, dealt with and regarded the 1928 Negro board more as children and puppets than as grown men, and supposed custodians of the institution. Even at this late date, despite the fact that she was asked in writing during the fall to submit her annual report to the Negro board, no such report has been issued or formalized by any member of the Negro board from the superintendent. Her policy has been largely one of ignoring the Negro board, and many obligations are incurred and other acts committed during the year without consulting or conferring with the Negro board. If her "boss" instructed her to do a thing, the Negro board could go to Helena, Montana, as far as the superintendent was concerned. The membership certificates, entitling members of the subscribing families to free hospitalization for the period of one year—a very fine idea—became a curse and burden upon the hospital due to the lack of staff. The board can cancel the memberships when the holders of same sought hospital service under their terms and provisions; and some ugly scenes were narrowly averted during the past year by two or three members of the Negro board rushing to the hospital and adjusting the differences between the superintendent and angry race citizens. Why, on one occasion the superintendent took all the jewelry away from a young colored woman, holder of a membership certificate, because she contended the woman needed hospital treatment before taking out the certificate; and that she felt justified in her action, and holding the same until redeemed by the payment of the regular hospital fee. The woman's husband was urged by some boes (and they are legion) of the superintendent to give publicity to the incident and mistreatment in the colored newspapers of the city and country, but members of the Negro board again rushed to the fore and remedied the impending assaults, which have not been calculated to "sell" the hospital to the Negroes of this community, the caesar politely informed the Negro board on more than one occasion that "EVERY ACT OF NURSE BRIGHT WAS DONE AT MY DIRECTION AND SUGGESTION." (We shall expose some of these ACTS in a subsequent issue.) As another concrete illustration that the white advisory committee considers and regards the Negroes as chumps and more politely informs the Negroes of the white committee's recent action in selecting the 1929 Negro board. After naming the seven colored members for 1929, the white advisory committee staged the unheard and unprecedented stunt of electing or designating the person who shall be chairman of the Negro board of directors, even taking away from the new board a right and function which the white committee did permit the 1929 Negro board to exercise. A diameter of the wind the way is blowing or to blow, as it relates to Negroes' connection with the Houston Negro Hospital, the white advisory committee has named a staff of 20 WHITE DOCTORS for the Houston Negro Hospital, to serve with (?) the Negro staff until the Negro ward at St. Joseph Infirmary is rebuilt. This seems to be like the gift which the Greeks conveyed to the Trojans, only this present act is loaded with dynamite, TNT or some other dangerous explosive. After serving on the Negro board of directors of the Houston Negro Hospital for about one year, the editor of The Informer is thoroughly convinced that, under the present ccar-czarina regime and hard-boiled, autocratic system of (mis)management, there is absolutely no need for a colored board; and no Negro (genetically speaking) will be able to serve under the present conditions in this capacity without stultifying his manhood, relinquishing all his rights under the hospital's constitution and betraying his race. TEXANS ENDORSE INFORMER'S POSITION Receipt of the news that The Informer's editorial content, to drop Langston University of Oklahoma, as Wiley College's football adversary at the annual "Negro Day" game at the Dallas State Fair, has borne fruit, will be received with genuine joy and satisfaction throughout Texas; and the publication of the news that Prairie View State College Panthers will clash with the Wiley Wildcats at Dallas, Monday, October 21, 1929, will create a response in the breasts of Texans which will be demonstrated concretely when the two elephants meet next fall. It was indeed gratified to note the unstinted support of Texans regardless of school affiliations, to this paper's suggestion that "Texas be sold on Texas Negro Day;" and we take this occasion to congratulate both Wiley College and Dallas State Fair officials for thus acceding to public demand in this respect. This paper had no fight to wage upon the Oklahoma institution of learning, but we have often wondered if the Sooner State would have continued such an annual custom with an out-of-state team, when there were three or four state elevenors of the consid- eration of achievements and athletic prestige accruing from such gridron contests. The Holy Writ declares that "the that provident not for his own household is worse than an infidel and has denied the faith;" and if the scriptures are true, then it is high time that Texans of both races begin to look after the interests of Texans. With the largest number of alumni, Friends and supporters in the state, Prairie View should prove a far better drawing card than either Wiley or Langston at such a game; and the South Texas special, which could never be realized when the Lions were widest possible at the fair, will not only become a reality, but a distinct success. Though the game comes early in the Texas football season, it is to be hoped that both coaches will have their charges in as fine a shape as possible, and that grid fans of the state will be treated more favorably. Texas is one of the states Texans in all sections of the state should begin early to plan to attend this game, and even though it falls on a day (Monday) which makes it quite difficult for many teachers and those engaged in certain lines of endosure to attend, why not begin a statewide tournament? Texas and invade Dallas several thousand strong for this event? OPINIONS Cimbee's Ramblings POLITICAL PROGRAM FOR 1929 M By KELLY MILLER, Howard Udemburt, Washington, D.C. The incoming administration. All No pro- gree politicians can readily agree upon the principle of such a program, al- though the personnel of expektant political members might prove to be the supple of dismed. Such a program cannot be made effective by more in- side persuem on the part of those who claim to have the ear of the president. This thing cannot be done in a comer. This program should be formulated and presented before the fourth of March, so as to become an essential part of the administration's agenda, and not merely a reliable ad- dermath. No other interest in sitting dumbly and supply by relying upon the president's kindliness of heart ex- cent the helpful After-American. The year 1929 will mark a significant turn in the political history of the Negro race. A new administration will be inaugurated, whose mind on the race question is to enter into the kingdom with a background and experience which are wholly commercial and material. He is an expert and expound par excelent of economic issues. His several speeches during the campaign have been instrumental in the persuasion of the late James G. Blaine. The fourteenth and fifteenth amendments do not form a part of his universe of discourse. He has the birthright of a Quaker conscience, the background of a Christian civilization, and the legislative regulation as regards the darker breeds of men, African and African, a world experience of dealing with non-white social inferior, and eight years of official experience of Commerce. The normal bent of his nature in the direction of business and commercial prosperity. For this purpose he was called to the kingdom at such a time as this. He took the necessary obligation, and he promised him nothing. The Negra has been eliminated as a political party by both major parties. They both solicit his vote in the pin of an election with equal availity, but with equal stationity and equal consideration of his right to vote.

The incoming administration must be receptive to competent suggestions because of its oblivious desire for a stronger law. The far more contingent has been limited ruthlessly. The Negro leadership, in the old sense of the term, has been shamed and there. Three men have been charged with the new order of things. Simply Mr. Hoover does not wish to have the Negro politically woke off then he found him. Constitution suggestions would have been the formulation of the new policy.

The Republican and Democratic national committees are planning for permanent organizations so as to function more efficiently. Both of these bodies have adopted the policy of setting up college auxiliary committees to keep in finger touch with the college voters who might be disband to follow the direction of the college. Why should not both parties set up permanent college auxiliaries to hold the Negro vote in line? At present the Negro's political interest is spasmatic and intermittent. It is not a campaign. There is no consistent plan or persistent presences. All that either party wants from the Negro in his vote; but the Negro wants for himself all of the programs and perceptions in that war. Thus he must keep his eye continually on the mail. Under the old regime the rights of man as embodied in the amended constitution constituted an important political dynamic, positive or negative, in both political parties. This dynamic died away at Kunigawa City and at Houten, and the existence of two parties nest at the zero point. In year gone by the inauguration brought to Washington expectant Negro politicians from al parts of the land, hopefully awaiting to be appointed recorder of something or minister to somewhere. But no such hopes will swell the breast of the ambition Negro politician on Man O'Brien, who constitutes a political entity which cannot be ignored by virtue of his electoral potential.

No political party would wisely ignore five million potential Negro votes, two of whom are active and assertive, unless this vote is denatured through internal incompetence to secure its just and righteous dues. The woman vote, the labor vote, the farm vote, the ku klux vote, will all be made to count powerfully in behalf of the respective groups by virtue of a skillful management. But the Negro is treated as a political momentity simply by reason of his political imbecility. No group, may expect to secure from the government any degree of consideration or favor except in so far as it has the courage to demand and the power to command. It was not from the love of God that Mr. Hoover promised instant farm relief but from love of the farmers' vote. Every group of voters, except the Negro, has a formulated program which it presses in and out of season upon the powers that be. They put their requests in the form of demands with the implied penalty of withdrawal of political support. The Negro also relies upon the gratis, grace and goodness of the administration. I have asked a dozen Negro politicians who assume to spend for the race in matters political. What may the Negro expect from the incoming administration? The unvarying reply is that they have confidence in the good intentions of Mr. Hoover. The Negro should know to his bitter regret that good administrative intentions form the best paving material for the streets of hell.

Once upon a time there was a political leader, Clarence W. Matthowbyn, who formulated a program for the fourteen points. This program was indeed temperate in its demands. These fourteen points were presented to President Coolidge whose administration was bubbling over with unrest. The fourteen points were waived aside with the left hand because there was no political pressure back of them to give the demands effectiveness. The voice of Mr. Matthowbyn became the voice which the administration respected not. Nor will any administration respect any demand from the Negro unions it is backed up by the power of command. He is the race upheld the hands of the spokesman, and given the ruling powers to understand that this is what the race expected as the reward of past loyalty and the price of freedom.

Illustrated FEATURE SECTION THE HOUSTON INFORMER agreed. "Now we can find out if Harlem appreciates regular merchandise," he chuckled. For some reason Mr. Stewart let the conversation die there, and during the silence which followed young Mr. Walker removed several of the brilliant rings from the case, fitted them on little cards, then placed them at strategic intervals among their other merchandise in the display window. The cards proclaimed to all Harlem that they were genuine imported diamonds—price three hundred dollars. He then stepped back behind the counter and awaited results. Mr. Stewart's voice rumbled down the narrow salesroom to him again. "You know, Walker, I feel sort of skittish," he said. "Yes," said Mr. Stewart, rising from his desk and coming forward. "The place was safe enough as long as we didn't carry anything too valuable, but now——" He pointed meaningly toward the trayful of glistening rings under the counter glass. "Twelve hundred dollars' worth," he ended. GEORGE R. SCHUYLER Editor HE J. P.

P. STEWART CO. represented one of Harlem's foremost colored enterprises in the jewelry line—watches, rings and pearls—genuine and otherwise. Inclosed in the single long display case, neat little green plush trays sparkled their contents through the thick plate-glass counter-top in a manner that pleased young Mr. Walker, salesman, profoundly. It was a late summer afternoon and the little store was, for the moment, bare of customers. To the rear Mr. Stewart himself worked diligently at his desk. Mr. Walker knew positively that he was working on the invoices that represented their most recent purchases in diamonds—cost two forty, sell three hundred. Young Mr. Walker, leaning leisurely at the counter, had just given in to something like the twentieth temptation to slip one of these newly arrived gems on his own finger, when Mr. Stewart suddenly spoke from the rear. "Walker," rumbled the heavy voice, "this last shipment is swell stuff, eh?" Walker toyed with the sparkling thing on his finger. It was beautiful. "About the best stuff we've ever had," he "Skittish?" "Yes," said his employer, frowning. "Bur- glars and sharps." Customer Enters Just then a pretty little brown-skinned woman came in and asked to see some pearls—exactly like the ones in the window. A few minutes of high-pressure sales talk, and young Walker sold her a string of imitation pearls with imitation platinum clasp—gorgeous little box and all—five ninety-five. When he was free again he glanced at his employer, who had returned to his desk, and smiled. "Huh!" he said to himself. "With all the police protection and that big safe, old Stewart's shaky. Stuff's insured, too." The rings sparkled up to him and he soon forgot the whole incident. In fact, he didn't think of Mr. Stewart's remarks again until nearly an that a certain man had passed and paused in front of the window three different times in the short space of ten minutes. He became anxiously alert at once. Outside, the tall well-dressed man gazed through the plate glass at J. B. Stewart & Co.'s merchandise intently — all quite in order; but to young Mr. Walker there was in his rather (Continued on Page 4) 2 CHAPTER II What Has Happened To Far AVID?

The lights glazed wetly on the black uphelf of the station plasma. Greatly the hurrying travelers and those who welcomed or sped them reached their objectives, whether of taxi, private car or tram. The station platform was almost deserted. Uncertain, bewildered, David jammed his hands deeper into his pockets. He felt the coins there and fingered them speculatively. They made a very small capital for beginning a career. But they were all he had. He must husband those slender mana until—until he could find work. That was imperative. But the immediate problem was to find shelter. No taxis for him, though. He hunched his shoulders and pulled the collar of his best gray coat on a lower around his throat. BIG OTT AGAIN Someone spoke alongside of him "Trevor had a bed, and it had been left on the black, field-flicking bed, with no mattress, if rather uncomfortably antiquated, if rather unfavorably antiquated, crudely to what would be doubted.

"Which way you goin' kid", I note my end parked around here. I'll give you life to your hangout if you say so. “I—I—I just got in and I will, I was just trying to decide where to make my hangout.

FIVE DOLLARS A WEEK “How—how much will it cost?” In spite of the possible construction High Ott might put on his anxiety to account the price of advance. David said he'd difference enough to start the question out. “I've bucks a week, an' check at the price.” “I can't pay—I don't want it for a week.” For tonight. I'm—I've got to look me up a job tomorrow and I may get one so far away that I'd have to change before the week was up. There was no need to beat the best.

Maybe we can land it for DAVID CONSENTR In spite of an inner feeling of unrealness and revolt at association with the big brutal looking fellow, David could only consider himself in luck to have his housing problem for the night so easily and quickly adjusted. Heides he could and would pay Big Ott for the night's lodging and tomorrow he could be on his way to the top of the ladder here in the big city. On his way up the ladder and far far away from the Ott and his ill. But, for tonight would be glad of the chance to stay somewhere that was at least a refuge from the dull, heavily falling rain. "Here we are, kid, pile out," David looked up at the lopsided facade of a big frame building. The windows were like dirty blind eyes, staring blankly white in the electric light that was reflected back from their shade-backed surfaces. Steep, narrow steps led up to the high, narrow street. The rain dripped, did mainly down upon the thaw and ran in thin streams to the sidewalk below. With an odd feeling of apprehension David climbed out and stood beside his host. "I'll just run you upstairs and let you turn in, Kid; I got a go back down the way. Gotta game on at the Joint. An' I wintn't sit in on it." He was already half way across the walk. David's luggage in his hand. There was nothing to do but follow A FOURTH-CLASS PLACE The room into which Hig Ott ushered David was typical of the fourth-class rooming houses of the neighborhood. Once the high-cellinged front bedroom of a home of wealth and culture, it had deteriorated to the usages of that submerged tenth of the underworld that made its living in precarious and devious ways. A thin beaver-board partition divided it into two long, narrow, dismal stalls. Each of these contained a bed, a dresser and a dilapidated chair or two. A short cross-passage separated this multiplied room from the other rooms back of it, although all of them gave onto the long hall that ran the length of the building. At the end of the short cross-passage a window gave onto the low roof of the house next to the big frame. Hig Ott introduced David into the first of the two partitioned spaces and set his suitcase down on the floor beside the sagging bed. got the two rooms rented, he said. "Keeps away pain," that's why I wants a feller I know in the other one. You just climb in here am make yourself snug. I'll turn in, in the other room later. I keep my things in there. ```markdown ``` David was alone in the bleak room. Something caught in his throat. He thought of his mother—of the big white house that was home and of the familiar room with all his boyhood treasures scattered around. Then he thought of Anson Bednoe and his eyes grew hard. His jaw muscles tightened and he clenched his big, brown muscular fist till the knuckles above gray gold through the taut skin. The bed was sagging and lumpy. But David Conway was young and healthy. In spite of his uncertain future, in spite of the bed and the room, and the man who had brought him there, he slept. AN OVERHEARD PLOT In one of the little curtains, embracesures off the main floor of the Black Bottom Cabaret, Big Ott and at a table across from Barry Dwan's mop, and the small glass of glassy mutely told the story of their spent time. Outside of the curtained space the jazz band was braying and whining and thumping its accompaniment to the. Just behind the scenic tree that formed the left wing of the painted back drop and almost brush-like against the little flats and the end of the logos as the little stallings were called, for private parties were called, the mysterious dancer waited her cue. Suddenly she learned closer and closer. A name on the lips of the big black man beyond that separating wall had caught and held her attention.

She was as stout and easy as walking. But she never before bathed in golden light before her bathed in golden light square on her head with purpurea. She was a woman of old who was frank and free. helpless must have had that look which memory was painting so vividly on her mind's eye as she whirled in the mad dance. The look that she had seen in David Conway's face as he sprang to defend her. No other man had ever so defended ZOLA. A CABARET DANCEH And now the one man—the BOT—who had done that was menaced by a danger more terrible than death. Danger from the cruel cunning of the beast, who, maddened with desire for her, had brought forth the chivalrous act. The dance was over. Breathing in short, sharp gasps with the exhaustion of it—Zola did not pause. With frantic haste she threw on her street clothes and sped for the car, never stopping to wipe the makeup from her face.

Dearer because so long that one must be protected at what that one must be protected at whatever risk to others. But she must be able to do this by a dust to help her. That was a duty, too, to know Big Ott's methods. He had to get his message to the police by the man would credit the man would credit anything Big Ott himself said or had someone else said? She knew that was why he was so kind. She said that he would have to be in time. Thank God, she was in time. Thank God, she was in time. "Ardely now, almost stealthily, she came up to me. She knew every crook and turn of God. she was at home." That God was too wasted a word for this woman too. she was too stupid. sum she could save from her salary that would have been ample but for—for the one person whose calls upon it she could not resist—would serve to house her.

If he must try to accomplish her purpose without waking the boy inside. Cautiously she slipped the key into the lock. Healthily she turned it. The door swung open easily. She tipped into the room and crossed to the flimsy door beyond. The closed in which that danning matched full of bonds lay concealed under the cap and coat of the peacefully sleeping boy in the room beyond. The hall door to that room was rusty-haged. She could have entered it, but she knew the danger of those sweaking hinges—knew that their harsh sound might waken the steeper whom she wished to save. THE BONDS! Slightly she tipped across the inner room. She opened the door of the closet. Yes, there they were—just as Big Ott with disholistic cleverness had fixed them. She stopped and picked up the heavy black bag. She would just make sure that they were all there—that there could be no mistake. She opened the bag. Yes, there they were, one package loose, the others exactly as they had been taken from the bank vault. "Zoe—it's a—it's," she heard it coming. The police sirent. They had heard it was only a matter of minutes now before they would be swarming in that room; then there would be no help for the sleeping boy. Nay, more—she herself would be involved with him. Taking a firm grip of the open bag, she started to the door. Hang! In her rush a chair topped over. She had not seen it in the semid-darkness. It only by the light from outside when she snapped off the light at the sound of that ominous, shrieking siren. "Flop!" She heard the bare feet of the sleeper in the next room, strike the ragged rug that covered the doughness of the floor inside the bed. "God! What was the matter with the door—it was stickin!"

He had decided to mention this to his employer, when the man's eyes encountered his own, then hastily lowered. Before he could make good his intention the man compressed his lip and moved on with the crowd. Young Mr. Walker waited and watched religiously, but he didn't return. The J. B. Stewart Co. proceeded to do a thriving afternoon business; the Seventh avenue crowd passed at the window, admired the diamonds enthusiastically and passed on, several came in and arranged purchases—Harlem did appreciate regular merchandise! The usual afternoon hull in business rolled around. A Beautiful Lady The salesman was contentedly observing the sidewalk crowds from the building to the water supply hall, heart quickened. Most men's heart as do as when their eyes fall on a singularly beautiful woman. "I've been so good to hurry past with the crowd, but something in the window seemed to catch her eye. Her beautiful cocoa-brown face suddenly lit up in admiration—very pretty admiration. Young Mr. Walker decided at once that she had the most beautiful crew-ture he had seen—one of those baby-doll women—baby-doll face, height, eyes—pure baby-doll. She was so smart to be started to move on, but the article in the window seemed to fascinate her. She retraced her steps. "I'm so good to know, I mean that ought to own one of those new rings," he said under his breath. "She's got IT!" "I'm so good to know, I mean that," she was changed her mind, then consulted her watch and, to Mr. Walker's satisfaction, hurried into the above-action, and then, "we're so separate and should that she put a very fine appreciation of the better kind of jewelry."

"Quite unfortunate indeed, but perhaps we might be able to serve you on your next visit to the city," he slightly reproachfully at her watch. "But I'm sure I won't be up again for a whole month," she laughed. "You're so think they're all beneath the air," he said. "It's so beautiful things!

Awaiting their approach in evident efforts to represent, the comedy woman met them half way with her musty voice. "Oh, I just know it's too silly!" she said, systemically, consulting her watch.

At the Aegon "I won't take but a minute," she pregnant, jumping lightly to the sidewalk and emerging from a most dis- suggesting silence. “Here up these steps.” In spite of the pulse-quickening display of bostery that resulted, young Mr. Walker retained his presence of the man, enough to remember certain of his employer's whispered instructions. He clasped his hand to his side pocket. It was there! "Do Brown," she said hurriedly to Dr. Brown, "she said currently to the attendant that ushered them late an antechamber. "I must see him at once!" "The doctor's busy on the third floor from the in-line of the attend- and. "If you'll wait!" "I must see him at once!" The beautiful woman interrupted, her voice blundered of hurry and excitement as she committed her watch. Before either could say a word, she brushed past the attendant, hurried out into the hall, and as hurriedly snarled up the door, "Just have a seal," said the attendant, turning to Walker pelletily, but evidently perplexed. Alone in the antechamber, Mr. Walker changed once into a series of mental reactions. He wondered at her rotten luck—a crazy husband! "I got a job is explained under his breath, visioning her pretty face. " Who wouldn't? He sat and met and sat. He heard no hurried footsteps on the street. He heard not that unusual voice. Things were quiet - unusually quiet. He got to his feet and strofied to the window. But at the curb was his employer's car. He thought suddenly of Mr. Stewart's parting instructions again and clasped his hand to his pocket. It was there! It was when he glanced at his chest, and then he began to be in that room ten minutes that he was in the room, and he encountered a—sickening sensation. He took hold of the neck, he thrust his head back of the bed, the HIPS pierced breastbone right to do more. He knew that they could be to a three hundred dollar diamond.

QUERY Dear Sir: Your explanation of recent dream of mine was very good. Here is another: "Beemingly there was a funeral, but I did not see the person. The lodge of which I am a member had assembled... but we never performed the burial ceremony. I did not recognize the city I was in but I went up a steep hill and it was very granary. I was very tired when I reached the top... I met a young man whom I have not seen for six years. The meeting was very pleasant. Just then my purse rolled down the hill into a valley which was very green with a clear stream of water flowing through it, with beautiful water lilies and very pretty leaves. A quarter rolled out of the purse into the stream. I could see it clearly and had no difficulty in reaching it and getting back up the hill." In my second dream, my husband was out of the house and while sleep I could hear the telephone reading and on answering it was him calling. He seemed to be saying, "I asked where he was but received no reply. I did not remember her him hanging up. Then my aunt came in whom I have not seen for six years and the conversation was "Things You Should Know" LARGEST NEGRO LADOR UNION WORKERS' TOWNS of Afrin, with bond- age in the largest Negro Union Towns in the United States, founded in 1819 by Cinderela Kid- afin.

The only notice she will see, will be the rest of the day Anne sang. She had no effect on Walker Tinsley, but being her man, he refused to dance with her. He worried. She alone knew that Anne was the one he had once held her position was. She spread that evening alone in her room. Many thoughts crowed her brain, nowhere in sight. She calmly thought held back the only thing that in that man like Walker drewers, the queen of Quercus. She was tamed and tamed with the idea. Finally she expanded into a room where she was tamed and tamed with the idea. She clipped her hands, and it only can go away. She was in a mood tamed and tamed with the idea. Anne made sweeping her after breakfast. Walker drove me. After breakfast. Walker drove me. After breakfast. Walker drove me. After breakfast. Walker drove me. He did not know that she now knew that she now knew that she now knew that the parity where his womb was held. Two things were now apparent to Queen: Amon intended to run no 量子论 (quintiles), therefore would not look for his ticket while Walter was anywhere around. This was all she wished to know. At 6:36 called the played box final trump, and played it masterfully. Amon was in the book yard�rinding, the line of cream, freezer. Walter was more usually in the kitchen. His face entirely more. Queens' slipped into the closet where Amon had his coat hanging, and the top of the pocket of that is the only look the Chamois ticket. This is the looked away in the bottom of her dress.

Now that it seemed Quenelle was lost to him, he realized that he did not care to live without her. "I don't believe it," he said. "Oh you don't—eh?" "Well, just cast your eyes on this." She produced the ticket and waved it under his now. His eyes popped. "Where did you get that ticket?" "Anoa gave it to me." "What for?" "To use on the train; I'm to meet him at the station Saturday night and we will close." Walter extended one large hand. His fingers closed around the ticket, he snatched it from the grasp of the astonished Quenelle. "What," he announced, cuttingly, "is that." "Wh.wh.which is what?" "I guess you won't close with nobody no time." He folded the ticket and placed it in his pocket. For a few seconds, Quenelle was speechless, then she, too, became victim to terror. "Give me back my ticket." "I'll give you nothing." "Walter." "Don't be Waltering me." Do you want this ticket real bad? And by the time he gets it, he takes a pounding. And by the time he waits, she waits. And by the time he can't wait, I can't get the ticket. He walked to the pantry and exchanged his white coat for a blue one. Without thought he felt into the breast pocket to assure himself of his ticket's safety. He went through every pocket of his coat—several times. Finally he sat down and a hollow groan filled the kitchen. Queensie dropped a hand on his shoulder. "Something wrong, Amos!" "Oh, Lords!" "You didn't lose anything!" Amos dropped his head in his hands. "I did if I felt where it was," I put away from me, woman. "Let away from me, woman.

At five o'clock Queenie made a final plea for the ticket, which Walter still held. But he refused to give it back. Instead he called Amos outside, and spoke in a crisp voice. "Mister Amos Washington," he announced, "you're going to Chicago tonight." "Yessie. I'll tell Queenie—" "You won't tell Queenie nothing "Not a single word." "All right!" Amos disappeared into his room and returned a second later with hat and suitcase. "I've got to speak with Queenie." "Man, you've spoken to her for the last time. Come with me."

He turned plمتس و تعبدولد ورس for a long time, book job and commercial printing. But with a false for best a few years of the great advantage of every possible look, the men could see and never permitted his blindness to be a stumbling block in anything he undertook.

Aided by a loyal wife, who has been indispensable to his life and was so well-known, the material and advertisements of the most-known and well-known and well-known literature, and from 1912 on each year has been published "Coleman's Directory," as we Baltimoreans call it, "M. Coleman in a taxpayer." Two years later, he was a teacher and teacher, a third attends Howard university, and the others are also being educated. He belongs to several social and civic organizations and is now pursuing a night-school course in the journal "The Journal," he is the moving spirit in "The Association for the Handicapped, Inc." an organization devoted to improving conditions among the blind, and the people who are minded. His indefatigable efforts to interest the public in this hitherto neglected class have succeeded to a remarkable extent. He is now raising the line of work to include the building to be used as an industrial and recreation national center for these unfortunate. A big undertaking? So it is, but behind it is a man with a big heart, unhold faith, and unflagging energy. In the United States, if he is in the blind, it can only be hard-clapped.

A white paper was lying on the floor where she had stood. A long folded paper like a legal document. He stood quite still for a space looking at it unseemingly. Then deadly he crossed to where it lay and picked it up. As he raised from the floor a great pounding came at the door of his room. The one where he had been sleeping. With the paper still in his hand he turned a bewildered Face toward the outermost door. A single blow from some heavy instruction. "I am here." The door of the room was flung violently open. The room was crowded in a breath. Crowded with frowning, menacing men in blue uniforms, pistols and clubs in hand. For the first time in his life David felt fear clutching at his vitals. Fear of the inexplicable. He dropped the paper. His face drained of color. He looked in a dared, unseeming manner from one steer, accusing face to the other. All with a whispers. Crustly triumpchant.
