GAINS MADE BY NEGRO GROUP IN LATE ELECTIONS
Chicago, 111—(ANP)—Although the Negro's fight for it zenithal representation in last Tuesday elections was centered in the battle to send Hubert Delany to congress from Wagged, a contest which was waged against tremendous odds and lost, a resume of the race's activities in other sectors, indicates that it not only held its ground, but made significant gain.

Ms. Martin, a woman of brothers have all distinguished themselves. Cleveland sent three Negroes to the city council, Lawrence Payne, elected from the third district, to the council. Lennie Loy, N.

HOUSTON YOUTH
WITH HIGH POST
Marshall, Texas.—Prof. Joseph J. Rhoads, president of Bishop College, announced last week that Cliften P. Richardson, Jr., Houston sophomore and the oldest son of Editor and Mrs. C. F. Richardson of Houston, had been appointed publicity representative for the college.
Beginning last year, young Richardson, an honor graduate of Booker T. Washington High School of Houston, "covered" all athletic events in which Bishop participated, as well as all news of the campus; and his articles were praised in high terms by numerous readers of The Informer, and the daily white newspapers of Marshall.
For the last two years this youthful writer has "covered" the big football game played on Negro Day at the Dallas State Fair for The Informer, his stories receiving commendation from President M. W. Dogan of Wiley College and others.
The first of the first-generation branched out and began to report for other Negro weeklies, including the Chicago Defender, Pittsburgh Courier, Chicago Whip and other metropolitan publications, and the appointment, with a next little salary, was the result.
The first of the first-generation, he began several years ago in the office of The Houston Informer, operated by his father, when, as a mere lad, he served as office boy and performed other chores around the office; later reporting local athletic happenings and doing some feature-making.
During the recent "Better Bishop Rally" for $5,000, young Richardson led all students for raising the largest amount on the campus for the financial effort. He is active in extra-curricular activities, being a member of the school's football team, and has the highest and most recent of his班级's

GRAND CHANCELLOR OF TAR HEEL ORDER STATES THEIR SIDE
Suspension Edict of Supreme Chancellor Challenged By Tar Heel State Leader—Asserts only Supreme Lodge Can Expel Grand Lodge—Backed By Insurance Commissioner of State
Winston-Salem, N. C.—Another storm has broken loose in national Pythian circles, the latest being a proclamation issued here last week by W. S. Scales, grand chancellor of the North Carolina jurisdiction of the Colored Knights of Pythias, North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Africa and Australia, of which S. W. Green of New Orleans, La., is the supreme chancellor.
During October the supreme chancellor issued an edict suspending the North Carolina order from the supreme council, for alleged failure to pay the supreme lodge taxes for building purposes, charging that this grand jurisdiction refused to pay the assessment "because of contumacy" rather than its inability to meet such financial exactions of the supreme lodge.
Grand Chancellor Scales, in his Pythias until it is restored to its precondition which appears herewith by the Supreme Lodge, has been appointed by the Supreme Lodge thereof.

New Orleans, La.—(ANP)—Fully half of the police at headquarters scoured downtown New Orleans for an hour, five shots were fired and several hundred theater-goers were frightened—just because a man tried to "mooch" a dime at 7 p. m.

Policeman Campon looked and was off like a bloodhound after the fleeing man. His shouts and two revolver shots caused a large part of the police and detective force just then having

Grand Lodge Resolution
The Grand Lodge at its annual session passed the following resolution:
“Whereas, the Grand Jurisdiction of North Carolina is indebted to the Supreme Lodge Knights of Pythias in the sum of $5.335.76, and, whereas the funds in hand are not sufficient to l'quidate the debt, be it therefore resolved that the Grand Chancellor and Grand Lodge officers be empowered to borrow sufficient amount to satisfy the claims of the Supreme Lodge.”

Residential Segregation Again Declared Illegal—Decision Outlaws Agreement Clause of Whites—Sweeping Opinion By Supreme Court of Appeals—Negro Lawyer Triumphs
Charleston, W. Va.—(ANP)—The Supreme Court of Appeals of West Virginia, in a sweeping decision handed down Tuesday morning in the Huntington segregation case brought by H. W. Agnew and J. White, whose wife of Huntington, bid that “A restriction in a deed conveying a fee simple estate providing that the property embraced ‘shall not be converted, demolished, devised, rented, or placed to any person of Ethiopian race or descent for a period of fifty years,’ is void as incompatible with the estate granted.”
AN APPEAL TO EVERY RED-BLOODED NEGRO IN CITY AND COUNTY
The court, in the course of its opinion, said, a recitation on alienation operating against only a person or a few persons, for a limited time, before the court, and we do not undertake a decision there. But on what we do we better consider cases, and, we believe, by the weight of evidence, that alienation on alienation to an entire race of people, when appended to a free simple person, being with complete ownership. A free simple is defined as the largest possible being an absolute estate. It is where lands are given to a man and to his wife, and where a man is limited to the estate. Boverville's Law Dictionary. The right to alienation, in person, injures, cannot sell a thing to a person, but it impairs, not impairs, the property it impairs, it is not absolute.

The Grand Lodge of North Carolina paid the tax that were levied on the business of the advance, and accepted in good faith the name and trust of its members, and allowed of further taxation for the business of the advance, but not for years for which they had paid. When in proclamation of the Supreme Court, with which announcing annual quinquennial taxation, the members just two years after we had begun in advance, tax for ages refused to pay it and quit our members. We hired and six-ix of our
members did pay, and check was turned over to Siranne Chancellor in London to take care of their man. At the same time, we found ourselves with many dead and death slain; and an extra assessment commissioner to take care of the obligations to the beneficiaries of our deceased air knights. These handlers were also responsible for stunting financial conditions, re-arming our relationship more than 2,000 times.
The Grand Lodge Officers Made Offer to Supreme Chancellor
Finding that the loan could not be obtained, as the Grand Lodge aside from its endowment department did not have the required assets to secure same, and having received a communication from the Supreme Chair of the House which stated that the "emergency taxes amounted to $6,404,655 with interest up to date of payment," and that our Grand Lodge could not "be represented at the session of the Supreme Lodge in Indianapolis, Ind., in August, 1929, until such time with interest received." In full, we submitted another disposition. We asked to be permitted to pay the taxes on the basis of our present membership offering to collect within 80 or 90 days as much cash as we could from the members of the subordinate lodges, and take no note of any other charge for the remainder of its indebtedness. We further offered to place these notes in the bank, endorsed by the Grand Lodge officers personally, secure the money on same, and forward to the proper Supreme Lodge officers. To have asked the loyal men of North Carolina, pay for the other men who whether by choice we necessity, had quit the order, because of heavy taxation, would have secant the complete disruption of the Grand Lodge. This proposition, with my approval, was sent to the Supreme Chancellor at Indianapolis, and the other men of the same day were the other records and Seal and the Supreme Attorneys. The Supreme Chancellor replied as follows:
"Your communication to the Supreme Judge setting forth the failure of the judge to suspend the dues each of members who were suspended since July, 1927, does not appear to the Supreme Judge because your Grand Judge, and if you fail to pay the dues, you will be suspended."

OPPOSES BLACKS FISK WINNER IN PARTICIPATION CASE OVER WILL AS POLITICIANS MADE BY NEGRO
St. Louis, Mo.—(ANP)—The political reputation of citizens here to successfully maneuver with the ebb and flow of movements of which they are a part has been shaped by Oliver T. Remmers, white, former chairman of the itemized central committee, now chairman of the board of directors addressing the "five-crowd" division of the state government at night day in Summer High School. He expressed the opinion that members of the state government advance interest by "trying to prevent the state and government, and intelligent leaders are finding places to work in his development period, can give either permanent or effective aid to political advancement predicated upon racial grounds. The result is usually based upon the desire for self-advancement or personal aggrandizement."
"The cost of the desire for political power, the individual is born by the power of the individual," power too many times capitalizes on the individual's desire to "Your folk," he said, "should take an interest in governmental affairs and candidates, but should shuun the national candidates, but should shuun the national candidates who in every campaign try to paddle the influence of voters for their own personal gain." "Advancement of our people as a nation is the only way to benefit on the individual and his own merit and cannot be obtained by the politician."
"I am not unkindful that the Negro is wetaked cleaner and more criticized than the white man. Let all good men and women, individually, and not alone by group effort seek to excel in what you are doing. You must be a leader. A leader may be labor to be better."

St. Louis, Mo.—(ANP)—Efforts to break the will and last testament of the Dr. John W. McClellan, eminent surgeon who died here in 1927, leaving a 575,000 estate to Fink University, failed in circuit court here last Friday, and Dr. Oral McClellan, a brother of the deceased along with other relatives, will receive one dollar a piece.
Following the hearing of testimony for four days the case was submitted to a jury in Circuit Judge Falkenhainer's court last Friday. After 40 minutes deliberation, a copy of the will was upheld by the jury, cutting off a number of relatives of the latest doctor.
Five brothers, a sister, and two daughters of a deceased sister远查特·霍姆伯格,他们与医疗专家亨利·霍姆伯格一起,在Fink University at Nashville, Tennessee.
The original will, said to have been drawn by Robert N. Owens, lawyer, could not be found. Testimony was that Dr. Oral McClellan, a brother of the dead physician, had removed his brother's safe from his office shortly after his death in 1927, and not only displaced important documents but plundered and carried off money and jewelry found in pockets of clothing of his brother.
Dr. Oral McClellan appeared shocked and jerked by jerky verbal attack. His face looked glued down, with a sharp arm of the courtroom bench, his lips twiced, but he was too full for uterus, twitched, and he was too full for uterus. Intimations from the two defense attorneys that two of the jurors had been infused, met with defeat after a court order that he had been awarded. In unholding the will, Attorney Rolf McClellan and J. Roger Reger real estate dealer, will be retained as administrators of the McClellan estate with Homer G. Phillips as att

Chicago, 111—(ANP) —Although there were no nongovernment running for office at last Tuesday's election in this city, the results are expected to have an important effect on the future status of the Negro in this city.
The Thompson faction of the Republican party, with which most of the Negro leaders and voters have been affiliated and have voted to support, suffered a contested contest to contet ele twenty justice to the superior court and two to the circuit court.
A combination of the Democrats and the Decem Republican was reorganized to the defeat of the Thompsonies.
As usual, however, the Negro was defeated by Thompson since the overwhelming victory of the Decem-Democratic party which has deserved "Big Bill."
An important primary election is to be held in April. In the campaign which leads up to that day the different factions are expected to come to death. Grist The Thombons are determined to hold on to their last bit of remaining prestige and, if possible, to build upon it. The Dementes, aided and abetted by the Democrats, would like to see the Thompsonites completely centuryed in April. In the fall of 1960, for them to center their attack in the Thomson's Negro strengthards. Thompson's white supporters have fled from him within the last two years, but he still holds the whip hand among the colored voters. Whether, finding that the death of the young smoking, they will flee remains to be seen.
One can be sure that all of the Negro leaders will try to land their followers where there are going to be most jobs. If it looks like Dement is going to have the big patronage of the people, get the vote long as Thompson controls thousands of pay envelopes, he will get a large vote.
Very little can be said about what the Negro leaders are going to do, therefore, until there is some assurance that the people will do. As matters now stand, Louis B. Anderson, Oscar DelPriest and Bishop A. J. Carvy are holding up the Thompson standard in their awards, and Edward H. Wright and Warren B. Douglas, the Demeen flag.

Radios For Whites, None For Negroes
Greenbark, N. G. (ANF)—The announcement made recently that "every white school in this city is to be supplied with a radio receiving set the stated purpose and location on the part of Negro citizens and the interest centers in the building." What about the Negro schools? The white parent-teacher association is cooperating with the management of the school which evidently does not apply to the school groups.

I take this method to express my sincere appreciation to the Houston Club and dining room employees for standing by me in this line of endeavor. I rounded out my 19th year as an employee of this great institution Nov. 11, having started as waiter and worked as such for 11 years. Since that time I have filled the position of headwaiter, which has certainly been a school to me; for I have been able to get a better view of human nature—a really wonderful experience. I have lectured many times to my men on the following subjects: Service, Cooperation, Ability, Loyalty, Health, Honesty, Hard Work, Study, Clearliness, Knowledge and Diplomacy. I have a very fine crew that knows how to give service.

Beaumont, Texas—Playing here last Wednesday at Fair Park, in connection with the Negro Day celebration of the South Texas Fall (white), the Washington High Golden Eagles team made ten chances on feet of the Charlton High Buildings by a 14-0 score.
Due to the injury of Chagos and Porter, Washington's center and punter respectively, the game was safely up. Up until the last deadlock, the score was an 0-0 deadlock. Washington were Jackson, Porter, Chagos, McGinnin, Sidia, and Huddleston, while Seal Wright was the outstanding star for the Buffalo.

Local interest in the Thanksgiving gridiron tilt between the Washington Golden Eagles and the Wheatley Wildcats is at fever heat. The soleopic of conversation in almost every event of the season is probable outcome of this contest, which will be staged on Turkey Day at West End Park. The fact that this battle will most probably decide the intra-city championship among Colored high school teams, has insinuated that the organization is manifested in the annual tilt between these two eleven. Both teams have made most remarkable record in the field, this bid for the organization is confident of defeating the opponent. The Wildcats, under Coach J. E. C. Codwell, have lost one contest, this defeating quite "cocky." Although the Eagles have lost one contest, this defeat is to put the required amount of "pep" in them to carry them through the of the season with an unqualified team, perfectly perfecting his men in defense work designed to stop the feet-footed back
Last year the Wildcats won the championship, but were played to a tie. The team's fact alone has created in the breast of every Eagle, wearing the blue and gold, an all-consuming pass. On the other hand, on every Wildcat is whitting his food for a summons meal of Golden Eagle. The team wins the winner when the referee blows the final whistle, those who are fortunate enough to win these battle hints game worth traveling miles to see.

FIGHT IN SCORELEVEL TIE

Knoxville's held twice when Knoxville threatened to score; once after having blocked a Knoxville punt and on again on a fumble.

Editor The Informer:
May I beg some of your space to call attention of your readers to the tremendous significance of the press in the war. We are citizens from the so-called "white primary" in certain Southern states. Not long ago the United States Supporters of the war in which it was held that Negroes could not be excluded from voting in the South, but the Texas primary case so ably handled by the National Association for the Advancement of Blacks was this decision was special. It put the unreconstructed political oligarchy of the South in a hole. There was no longer any legal preference for the South to vote in the man's primary which in the South has been hereforemore implemnted. For some time the unreconstructed South was in a quandary. Lately it was decided that the decision of who shall be allowed to vote in the primaries to state primaries these committees are the very whites who have been kept the Negro politically helpless. If permitted to they will bar the Negro politically helpless before the Supreme Court of the United States handed down its great

last April. The case is now being moved to the Florida Supreme Court to override decision, the case will have to be carried to the United States State Court. This fight is not merely the fight of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, which is financing it, nor of the national association which is rendering financial assistance. It is, to the contrary, the case is lost, it will be due to lack of information, it will be shared for every Negro. The significant economic change that Negroes reside, are bound to have social and political reflections. In went Republican. This preaches the downfall of the one-party system and Negroes reside, are bound to have a better chance to regain the franchise in the next ten years. If these precedents are favorable, the franchise will be shared; if not, our political future will be smoothed; if not, our political future will be our political future.

HEADS OF LAND GRANT SCHOOLS HOLD MEETING
Chicago, 111—(ANP)—The conference of conferences of Negro land-grant colleges closed its annual meeting here last Thursday, after what its members declared was the most constructive and far-reaching session they have held. Meeting concurrently with the Association of Land Grant Colleges and Universities, of which these individual Negro institutions are members, the conference considers problems particularly vital to Negro education.
The president of every Negro land-grant college in the country was present, save one who was ill, and many, of them their deans and heads of various departments along that they might get the benefit of the intensive discussions of the program of the gathering.
That the land-grant schools represent one of the most important colonial institutions that they are among the most efficiently conducted was pointed out by the University, Baton Rouge, La. president, in the president's annual address.
Davis Makes Masterly Address
In a mastery address, som to be made public. John W. Davis, president of the American Institute of Architectural charters of the executive committee of the conference, dissected the federal and state appropriations of every building in showings in undisputed figures, the discrimination practiced against color barriers, and the presentation is to be used as the basis for the demands to be made for a more equitable distribution of support.
Howard President Applauded
President Mordecai Johnson of Howard University, who is also president of the National Association of Teachers, led the program of that organization for the coming year. The association has hired salaries for colored teachers, with especial attention being paid to the need for a high-quality teacher. High standards for teachers and improved teacher training are objective of the teachers association, which is located in New York where educational legislation affecting the race may be carefully observed. Johnson's watchfulness which prevented the formation of President Johnson's organization being formed without Negro representation brought hearty appeal.

The lesson committee has richly developed materials, as the basis of our study. The topics selected by the committee may seem a little strained. It will harden to do so, but the materials preach to the Ninevites partisans rather, we should recognize it as the missionary reading with the teachings of Jesus to men to repent and turn to Him. Partisans love me for our country as a missionary and love me for passionate love for test men of all countries.
K. LONDAH CALL and COMPILE (1).
Jonah, a Jew, was called to go and preach repentance to a gentle city in a real sense, salvation is of the Jews. In the seed of Abraham at nations of the earth shall be blessed (Geo. 12:1, 2) The story of Jonah graphically portrays the history of Israel as a anthon. God separated Israel to be the channel through which His mercy and salvation were to be carried to all the nations of the earth. They, like Jonah, have been recurrent to duty. Because of this God has caused them to be swallowed up by the nations, who will one day in the future spune them out upon dry ground. Palestine. After chastisement they like Jonah, will discharge their obligation and nations will repeat and turn to God.
II. Jonathan's Flight From Duty (1:3)
He turned his back upon God and attempted to flee from His presence. He went in the opposite direction to which he was sent. He did not believe in foreign missions. In the same way, Israel has become an apostate people and instead of a blessing has become a burden and curse to the nations.
11. Jonaha Correction (1:4-2:10).
1. Overtaken by a storm (1:5).
Trouble soon came upon the disbanded servant of God. So with the Jehovah misfortunes after misfortunes they became the servants they then turned from God. They are now tamed about by the nation. They like Jehovah, are astonished in their property the saints cannot let the fall fell upon Jehovah. According to his own direction they tried to give a great gift that swallowed Jehovah. S. Jehovah's deliverance (ch. 2). The servant turned to God and prayed Jesus.
God miraculously preserved him while in the belly of the fish. God has miraculously preserved Israel while in the belly of the fish. God could not dig Israel, neither can the nations assimilate Israel. Jonah repented while in the fish. So Israel could be the great rebellion. God made the fish out. Jonah out. So He will at the proper time cause the nations to cast our burrow. He Commission Renewed (3:1-10). Although Israel has been rebellious and failed in the execution of her mission, God has forwarded to fulfill her commission in preaching the gospel to the nations of the earth observe. He field of his ministry (3: 3). It was to be the great Gentile city Nineveh.
2. His message (v. 4).
He was instructed to "prench the preaching" which God had commissioned him to utter—Nineveh was to be saved. S. affected the people of Nineveh (v. 5-10). They repeated and used for pardon, in the time to come the Gentile on the earth, to be baptized in the gospel of the kingdom is preached unto them by the Jew. V. Jebahah Bebahar (4:1-11). He now makes known the real reason for his flight from duty. He knew that the gracious God would save him. Z. God rejoices Jesus (v. 4-11). By means of the guard God shows him his error. The closing scene affords a striking example of the power of the gospel with the hard-hearted man.
Hidden Gold Found
A story is told of a man whose house and mall, all that he had in the house, was destroyed. But, as he stood on the scene of the fire, after the water, he was autoloid, broken-hearted and discouraged, he said something eliciting in the heart, "I was a gold soldier. The flood which had burgled him, and made him rich. "Richest strife off loved possessions, but the treatment of the love of God."
Wealth does not always stand for success; with untold riches one may yet be strangely poor in matters of the heart. Wealth alone cannot bring wealth and joy into a life, and round it to a partisan whole: It is only "The man notified of the

G.O.P. PROGRAM
TO BUILD PARTY
The Houston Informer:
It is contended by some people that the section of the country, wherein a man or woman lives, controls their public and private views with respect to social and governmental policies. And much is said about the intellectual development of people living in certain sections of the United States.
Fundamentally speaking, my own observation is there is no difference in mind or thought between people living or born in different map directions of this country. A normal white man North will think just as does a normal white man South, East or West, confronted with the same conditions. A normal black man North will think just as does a normal black man South, East or West, confronted with the same conditions. The same is true of a Chinaman, Japanese, Mexican or an Indian.
But customs, habits and economical conditions are the causes that make men differ in viewpoint, with regard to social and governmental policies. All colors and nationalities must adjust themselves to economical conditions and governmental policies, in the country where they live.
In America or the United States, the majority of the people is present in all governmental power, but this is only a theory, and the fact is a miracle of government and functions of the government. The will of all the people is present in government. Government is presented to represent the will of all the people, but in fact it does not represent the will of the bers of congress. Government is a theory, a dream or an illusion, and does not exist anywhere on earth. Government is real. Economic conditions and political conditions should affect all people alike, and only our national politics should prevent unequal effects. The government may help or hinder social or political man will deny, whether he lives East, West, North or South. As a man or woman in any normal condition or governmental power, no doubt, affect the conception of men and women, enusing them to scribe to certain rules. Government is the science of government. Through partisan poli-
ties, politicians control government.
Most politicians are selfish and enfeebled. Statesmen engage in politics and love of humanity and the perpetuity of human institutions.
Most politicians are cursed with too few patriotic large flocks or herds of politicians and blessed with too few patriotic large flocks or herds of politicians. States have produced few statesmen in the last 50 years. Elizabeth Rooteman, Al Smith is a statesman. Most statesmen have governed the government, and will sacrifice principles to accomplish their ends.
Statesmen have controlled through the party of both sides the sacrifice of party principles.
National Committee for N. W. Cure, the eighties and nineties, talked much and learned much about building two years the Grange party; to endore one year the greenback party; next two years a disgruntled two years the Grange party; next two years the Populus party and the next two years may but put a wore Reconstruction Republican ticket out at all, but leave Republican elections to vote for whom the Grange party and methods of N.

was born in Texas and yield to no one who is desire or wish to see built up in Texas a strong powerful and progressive Republican party. It is obvious that in states where there are two parties of equal voting strength, the best interests of all the people are served. I contend for a Republican party, not a coalition or a hybrid party.
In Texas, we have the Democratic party. We should have the Republican party. I have always contended that Republican electors should be permitted to organize. But the Republican party in Texas based upon Republican principles and Rec

I am no prophet, but it is my goven that if President Hoover and the Republican national committee persist in forcing these un-Republican methods and policies on Republican elcors, Senator Moses of New Hampshire will have to apply his newly coined phrase, "the sons of wild jackasses," after 1932 to not only his obstreperous senatorial colleagues but to Republican electors composed of white and black, men and women. North, East, West, all South, and what kind of a party will we then have?

HOUSTON, TEXAS, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 23, 1929
NATIONAL PYTHIAN PLOT THICKENS
That all is not serene within the ranks of the Colored Knights of Pythias, North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Africa and Australia, is evidenced in a news story appearing elsewhere in this issue relative to the suspension of the North Carolina jurisdiction by Supreme Chancellor S. W. Green of New Orleans, for the failure of that jurisdiction to borrow money and pay its delinquent taxes for the Pythian national temple at Chicago. Just a few weeks ago, Honorable R. B. Barcus, grand chancellor of Ohio Pythians, issued a proclamation severing all relations between the Buckeye State jurisdiction and the supreme lodge, ascribing his reason the inability of his grand jurisdiction to pay any additional taxes imposed upon the order for building purposes by the supreme body.
Almost simultaneous with Mr. Barcus' proclamation, Supreme Chancellor Green issued an edict which withdrew the right hand of fraternal fellowship on the part of the supreme lodge from the grand lodge of North Carolina, giving as his reason for such drastic action the refusal of the Tar Heel State jurisdiction to "come across" with coin of the realm for the national building project of the order.
The reasons assigned by Grand Chancellor W. S. Scales of North Carolina, for failure to borrow the money and pay this tax, present interesting reading matter, and disclose that the insurance commissioner of that state would not consent to the grand lodge negotiating any loan which would obligate the endowment department of the order in that state.
In stating their side of the question, Mr. Scales makes this pertinent observation: “With no assets belonging to the grand lodge aside from those to the credit of the endowment department, the grand lodge officers found themselves in the market for a $5,000 loan with absolutely no collateral to offer. In the face of present financial conditions, $5,000 can hardly be borrowed upon the best securities, and with no form of collateral to offer the banks, it does not take a financial genius to understand why we failed to secure the loan.”
To substantiate his contention that the North Carolina grand lodge has been loyal to the supreme lodge, Mr. Scales reveals that during the past nine years, his jurisdiction has paid $22,358.60 into the supreme lodge's exchequer for temple and sanitarium taxes; with $5,884.90 having been paid during the same period for contingent taxes, making a grand total of $27,743.58.
As to the recent suspension ultimatum of the supreme chancellor, Mr. Scales avera that the North Carolina grand lodge has been suspended virtually for two years, having been without the pass-word for the length of time, although at High Point in 1926, when $800 was accrued. The 1926 tax was been paid to their taxes have been given no consideration, and have been deprived of the benefits which they were promised when they turned over their money to the officers of the subordinate lodge.
Grand Chancellor Scales cites the law of the Pythian order to show that only the supreme lodge can revoke the charter of a grand lodge, and challenges the authority of the supreme chancellor to issue an edict suspending a state jurisdiction from the supreme lodge.
After a careful reading of Grand Chancellor Scales' version of the matter, it appears upon the surface that some grave issues are presented or precipitated as a result of this official action on the part of the supreme chancellor; and the question arises when the state of the state in which it operates, or ignore such statutes and comply with all oaths and mandates of the supreme lodge, when such actions are incompatible with and in defiance of state laws governing the operation of such fraternal orders in said commonwealth.
Is it good policy to disrupt and destroy a grand jurisdiction in order to raise money to continue to place it in a "rat hole"? The can the supreme lodge compete a grand lodge to borrow money and representations previously made such grand jurisdiction by the supreme lodge and its titular head, have not been fulfilled or executed?
Where will this Pythian fiasco end, if the present policy is maintained, and if state jurisdiction must either withdraw from the supreme lodge or be suspended indefinitely for failure to meet such assessments, which are not imperative in the conduct of the state, or if the state jurisdiction has aside from the legal, moral or fraternal aspect of the situation, the fact remains that the Pythian order seems to be in a bad way; and what is worse, it does not appear that there is any Moses in the order just now capable to lead the fraternity out of this wilderness into a better land and brighter day.
Truly, the national Pythian plot thickens and the order's ruin
The Houston Informer
THE DEFEAT OF DELANEY!
BY KELLY MILLER, Howard University, Washington, D.C.
The recent off-year election was a victory for the Democratic party. The race was not only a victory but a slight reaction against the overwhelming landslide last November. The Negro's interest in the contest centered around two points—Virginia and New York City. He contains a given number of Negroes given in no limit of their political potential. We have their relative distribution. Intelligent, upright, clean, sportmanlike, he approaches the political arena as an athlete ready to run the race. No breath of graffiti, sexuality, or vandalism attaches to or harms the race. Hope that young men of this ilk will in the future constitute our political leadership. He stands forth as glorious in defeat as he would have in victory. Many causes conspired to bring the race to a close. When wished was foreseen from the beginning. Foremost among these is the political indifference of the Negro race. Harlem boasts of a Negro population ranging from a hundred and fifty to two hundred thousand. A large number of political leaders has lost to the man in former political estate. And yet, according to the Amsterdam
News, only 23,000 NEGRES registered, and but 18,000 voted. The ammending difference in political sagacity between New York and Chicago NEGRES nets the difference between victory and defeat. Mr. D. Melanyy, a former NEGRES candidate, arouse his constituency to political life and action.
In the second place, there are more white than colored people in the congressional district. I heard Mr. Anzalone, a former Republican congressman, state that there were four hundred members of the congressional district, a goodly majority of whom belonged to the white race. The Negroes undoubtedly constitute the vast majority of the Republican party. Under such circumstances the race issue has to be handled very artistically to secure victory. For example, the Negro voters around the Negro voter by just as much will frighten away the white voter. In Chicago Mr. DePriest play "the ginger game" successfully for the voters appealed to; but not as in Harlem. Mr. DePriest himself hammers the Republican candidate qualification to represent all of his constituents, white and black. His qualifications and admirable conduct as a candidate must the commendation of the national committee and of that nationally famous publicist and statesman, Nicholas P. DePriest, the Republican candidate qualified for that 12,000 white Republicans voted for him. The third cause which contributed to Mr. DePriesta's defeat was his ardent Republicanism, as disclosed by his link up with LaGuardia's political fortune. The new Republican's political fortune the minority party in New York is dominated by Democratic. The New York woman in a wise political guy. Locally he is a Democrat; nationally he may be a Republican. They hitch their chairs to the star of Tammany Hall. These Negroes supported Walker in the last campaign, which often diffused his views. It is so much easier and simpler to vote straight. Many a Delancey well wishes doublestyle forget his well wishes at the booth, and dropped a straight ballot for the Tammany ticket. Delancey then became the victim of a political attack on his fairness and the Democratic landlord simply guiled him.
But Delaware is young yet. There will be twenty other congressional elections before he passes his political prime. The now thing for him to consider is "What of the future?" He will be a senator of Harlem, so far as federal policies are, is precarious and uncertain. The population seems destined to extend longitudinally rather than laterally. The state of New York, including the metropolis, will be redistricted on the basis of the 1500 census. The Harrisian population is distributed among several congressional districts. The state machinery is in the hands of the Democratic party. It is in a allowable part of party victory to gerrymander political divisions to serve partisan advantage. It is therefore entirely possible that in the next congressional election the state will hold hopeless minority in any one congressional district. In such case, the election of a Negro candidate for congress becomes unlikely unless he shows transcendent merit. But in any case, Mr. Delaware is the hink hope of Harlem. He already made himself nationally known, and just as
in our mind or other political position, we know that relative distribution. We can distinguish to Negro politicians in now. One word of caution seems advisable to Negro politicians in all of our large contexts. Watch the redistricting of your state on the basis of the Demographics of your state. Can our Demographics be enamored of Negro congressmen. Wherever you can redistribute a state to the political disenchantment of the Negro contingent, you may depend upon them to do so. Let them know that you know what happens during when they undertake to do it. The case of Dalhousie suggests the political hope of the future. The old type of political leadership has lost to the nazi's former political estate. It is removed to the young, aggressive future to the future in whom the future remains the best estate.

“We reverse the decree of the trial court and dismiss the bill.”
This decision has a far reaching effect as I like restrictions are found in practically every town and city of any size in the state, especially where new additions have been laid out in the last ten or twelve years.
This case arose out of Lewis White and Cora White purchasing a lot in the Jones-Rau addition with the above restriction. The circuit court of Cahell Court held the restriction as legal and binding and cancelled the deed from F. B. Hoaker and his wife to Lewis White and his wife. The Huntington branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People prosecuted the appeal and enrolled T. G. Nutier of the city as the attorney to present the case to the Supreme Court of App al of West Virginia. The decision was written by Judge Maxwell and co-written by four tyewritten pages. He reviews the authorities at length and concludes by saying:
"But on principle and reason, sustained by what we deem the better the weight of authority, we hold a restriction on allegation to an entire race of people, when appointed to an entire race of people, with complete own-ership.

George Walls, who by his quick thought, was a Fortune
By HERBERT JAMES
GEORGE Walls, of Cape Girardeau, Mo., has demonstrated his fearlessness and willingness upon more than one occasion when called upon to risk his life to save others from terrible death. Yet he has never been present with a model for his bravest although he has not been entirely unhonored for his brave feats.
Perhaps there is no other man living in the world today who has demonstrated his life as best George Walls of Cape Girardeau, Minori, a pastor at the time at the old St. Charles Hotel, which was a great depliant the nature of his occupation.

This strange hobby has won him a larger number of friends each day. He long ago, white women who had children and said

Clarice turned to George Walls:
"Who is that woman?" she asked.
"Does she have Gisegararde, or a trampier?"
George told Clarice that he had been told that she lived in Girardine, but that he didn't know who she was. It was a woman who she met at the other woman so that she would have a better chance to see what she was looking into the eyes of a woman who looked so much like herself. Consequently she could scarcely remember her name. The only thing that kept her from doing that was the thought that she was intruding, and Clarice had too much real old fashioned pride for Martin Andrews was a tobacco salesman.

Once in a while, he would ask George, is in case he did give up work, and would accept a position in his employ as a servant. George Walla had a military training, and he speed for Andrew, who was caned and beset with his reply which would begin work for him immediately. But about this time something happened that arraced the pence and hair of George, and he would begin work for him immediately.

The husband of the other woman—the woman who looked in the night, and decided that he had seen her turn in at the hotel entrance and burned his jealousy, and could not resist the impulse to do something more. He burned a burning jealousy, and was driven hurriedly home. There, he armed himself with a revolver and returned to
There were but few people in the house he had thought he saw his wife there. The woman he saw was sitting landlords and he thought he was in conversation with a traveling man. The husband thought he was being attracted her attention for so long, and he thought at the same time he was being fitted in setting the matter then and there. Accordingly, he drew his revolver and started to tame the woman in the flections of the green log fire. George Wallis was waking the man. His actions showed that he had something similar in mind. He moved forward, lifted the revolver and pointed it directly at the woman in the crimson reflections, George Wallis. Quickly, George leaped forward and came down to confront the revolver, report as it was a large weapon. Then he hand and began to struggle with his adversary for possession of the weapon, but none did any damage.
However, had not George leaped forward quickly, no doubt Clarice Andrews would have been dead. For the husband of the other woman had mistaken her for his wife, and had not entered every intention of destroying her life. George got possession of the revolver and soon had the frantic husband helpless in his arms. By his quick thought, George made another addition to the list of merits for receiving here medals.
George Walls did not go unrewarded for his deed. When Clarice Andrews' father died, he named George Walls in his will for the sum of ten thousand dollars. Now George has invested that money in a minstrel show and is earning a substantial income. He is a good minstrel man, and knows how to conduct the show.

There are also the mechanical控制aggression, the market for straightening noises that are broken, and giving shapely lines to those that the owners want to change. This reader wants to know if this is a good idea—and there is only one answer. For many, many people it is. It helps correct your ideas, and though the nose that has been broken needs an operation—these little clamping machines do help.
As ears and noises are important to facial beauty and outlines, there is even greater value in the eyes. The maid with appealing eyes, stirs the hearts of every man, while the youth who can really tell the story of his heart through his eyes will reach the heart of the maid.
All of this may sound a bit poetic, so our older readers, but just the same as the men of the years and the boys and girls, the youth and the maid, are of the utmost importance in the consideration of facial beauty. For this reason they need all the care that you can give them and

MAMBA'S DAUGHTERS A Story of Sacrifice, Romance, Humor and Tragedy DU BOSE HEYWARD Author of PORGY
SYNOPSIS
MAMBA—Not a full-blooded Negro but whose dark colored suggest an admixture of American Indian, is the much beloved employee of the THE WENTWORTH FAMILY—Consists of Saint Jean de Changtien Wentworth, Polly Wentworth, and Mrs. Wentworth, their widow and mother. MAMBA is a member of the MAUNE TNFTA—Another colored member of the Wentworth household, who has been with them for many years. MAMBA was born in the understanding of the rulling white class and also possesses a naturally deep and unusually rich contrasto. The Wentworths are unable to pay Mamba, but Mamba is so devoted to the family that she is satisfied with her board and the opportunity of acting as mad to Polly, a young lady of inherited social prominence. Polly was very apt in school, but Saint was a disappointment to everyone in the family (amble, except Mamba, whose keen insight and wit were evident). Mamba did not respond credibly to the school system. Mamba alone understood Saint. Mamba's gini, muscular, slow-witted daughter, had an inordinate liking for strong drink, much to Mamba's distress. Two voice and a large body. Mamba was Mamba's Mamba, a fine contrastible." ISSC—Hagar's daughter was the object of Mamba's sacrifice and the cause of Mamba's constant reinforcement against Hagar's habit. Mamba leaves the Wentworths for the Atkinsonns, who are also wealthy, incidentally more wealthy than aristocratic—in order that she can maintain her business. In the meantime Saint obtains a five dollar a week job as storekeeper at the mines and begins a business career. Mamba leaves with a Wernoo, whom she beliows with so much severity that she is arrested and charged with aggravated assault. Mamba sends her to Saint for a job at the mines. Hagar astonishes the miners by performing a man's work. She turns her earnings over to Mamba, who
At a combination church service and "Love Feast" Hagar (whose new name is Baxter) befriends Bluton, a very much despised mulatto, by carrying him to a city hospital after he has been seriously "nashed" by one of the frolickers. Under Hagar's suspended sentence, she was forbidden to come within the city limits and she barely escapes prison again.
The season's most exclusive event among the white folks is the ball of the St. Cecilia society. The Atkinsons are elated over their invitation to attend this event, consequently they invite Mr. Atkinson's pretty niece, Valerie, to attend as their guest.
Mamba takes Lissa, who is now about ten years of age, to the Wentworth home to see Polly's evening gown. While there, Lissa is found to be developing into a very beautiful girl.
Saint-and-Valerie have become very much interested in each other. In the meantime, an accident occurs which calls forth Saint's dissatisfaction with his position in the commissary. He hesitates to aid in the punishment of a Negro whom he knows to be innocent.

"Enough to eat, friends more time than we have, and then we have to have men. "Sufficient unto the day as the Bible or somebody says, how you're getting along yourself." Saint said, "I am glad you asked me that. There are some things that I want you to have a look at the books. I have been thinking a lot about the bibles. I have started some things already. Do you mind if I go ahead with Raymond or regain him with a surprise that was not entirely free from the conjugary in the light of the business possibilities. "Go right
The boy became a little self-reliant, and he himself in the telling of his plans. "There quite a nice cash business in the farming," he said. "We could make a small line of agricultural implements pay. I say, 'You can make a regular hand.' He is quick at fixing a corner of his mouth 'quicker than any other man,' and he the most popular boy for me. I could get him for five dollars a week." He wryly wrote he'llray for himself from the farm.
Saint, watching intently, could also analyze the new ideas and slowly increase the questions of questioned perceptions, and slowly "Honor me, not so sure about that last item." Never new Neuros in the stores. Never thought of it. Can you imagine a man who has always been white man work? So now and it might put notions in their hands. "Perhaps that's why the cash business has been going to the little-Neuro shops over on the main road," "Well, I'll be damned." Then the big man handed, "All right," he said. "I'll be happy. Any more surprises for me?" Neuros stood on the pizza of the store blinking in the glare that the white man was wearing. "Beardy Wentworth," he said. "Beardy to do your best by us in straightening out the damned awkward step in the future." And about the store: go ahead with your plan, and go to the town office. If anything new occurs to you, you had better run and take it up with me personally."
All that afternoon Saint was too filled with elation over the success of his plans to give thought to any other event. He was dressed through the white sand on his way to Bagart's office, the unpleasant nature of the mission upon which he was preparing for the brightness of his mood. He had leched the store and started off with a carriage of sunshine promenading the air of the last walk that he had danced with Vavarie, and while his surface thought to be empty, she for the store had been taking

Well, now that he came to think of it, that was exactly where his grandfather had stood in 1861. He had enjoyed the reputation of taking better care of his slaves than any other person. He was very calm, but he positively pampered them. Yet he had died at Gettysburg in defence of certain principles, among which certainly must be numbered the institution of slavery. But no, that was not quite a fair comparison.
In town, at any rate there were now college school, which was even a state college for Negroes. There were colored business and professional men who were earning tidy incomes and living comfortably. Saint's mind locked with this apparent inconsistency. Suddenly he saw an ex-president who was a college student who probably wasn't any—but at least the motivating principle. Expedience. In town both numbers and power rested securely with the whites, and so he could afford to appear in court for a Negro, couldوا he had given him a business� andudlo the own benign paternalism. Out in the agricultural region, staying on upon the same soil that had enslaved the grandfathers, they were held to the old code of behaviour by a tradition of servitude. He had a great effect on the land's life as a stual affection to their landlords. There they were, she. Only here in the industrial belt, thonged as it was by the rag-tag and bobbal of the race, ten, twenty, a hundred of them to a single white, the grip could not be allowed to change. White

Valerie's interest in Saint led her to visit him at the shop should turn back now, instead of going on and repudiating his attitude of being days ago. He was given a new� to have a good time to go and go on a workday. He would be easy enough for Baggart to get him in a crap game if he just watched and waited. Then most certainly his own position would be jeopardized. He would no longer be one of a group that has been together by a wordless, but an solute, understanding. He'd be out in a no-man's land of his own making. He would lose the chance that he was just beginning to realize in the store. Hunting for work again. Failure again. His mother—Polly Valerie
Out of a job, what good would be to be himself or, anybody else? Supporting that the Negroes and wanted to help, was it not best to stay here, observe the convention,? Yes, time? Yes, that seemed the practical way? Yes, that seemed the practical way it difficult to go on to Bagartg. It was to be plain sailing if he had satisfied himself that he was right to bring conviction to himself. Of course, it was his own pride. No gentleman would be able to sail a bagartg. Well, then, he must make a personal sacrifice in the matter. For Valerie's mother—she might be able to render to the Negroes themselves, he must pocket his money into two roads, one cutting not a little. Before him the bread belt of white sand and the sandy riverbank into two roads, one cutting straight back between the pines in the country, the other swirling around the country, the other swirling around the sharp right angle toward the river and Bagartg. Before him, and tried to force the familiar, objective details of sand, for him, to get out of himself and go ahead with the he had to do. But the picture-making faculty that and so he upheld him and endowed the way that he must choose, with its wide-leaf symbolism. His heroic pose collapsed With a posture of utter confidence in the direction of Bagartg's bag.
In Charleston the brief and intense social season had burned itself out, and the city had carried it brightly through its shorter career, were now in their tenure. The city had lent it a sharp line of demarination in the behavior of the city's elite, the Church of England tradition. The city had also created a Creekin and Creekin portico, where the St. Cecilia had held away, had now grown in an air of elegance, and suddenly to old more women in mourning, fewer girls in bright colors, for the whirlwind homeward journeys, and local belles were fluttering away on visits to more historic homes.
Saint was in the city for Sunday, but he did not attend church with his friends, and he engagedements that morning. Mr. Raymond had made an appointment to meet O'clock, and, after that, he had to be a knight in the army to be caught a knightron train at two. Two such different engagements, each with a knight, were made the boy of two minds during a sleepy night, and a preoccupied man that is trying to inhabit two separations that his thoughts soured when Valerie brushed across them made it terribly hard to hold his feet down to the ground, that he was going to make to his envoy, almost three months since Valerie call the at mines, when he was coming to the town. That event, and the visit of Mr. Ezekiel coming on top of it, had opened
Books, music, fossils, even painting had been forgotten for some time. He made a surprise adventure into the problem of making the commissary a paying proposition and he had looked over the arraised and he had looked over the commissary was amusing but had come to see him without conscious effort. He had known he that he enjoyed, and that gradually they had started to bring their friends to shop and that they up over a very considerable cash business among non-employees of the mines. Then he came up the impulse that he wanted to help the helper. Immediately sales had boomed. At his own suggestion the boy turned to go out on advertising excursions among his friends, and the salesman himself were kept going at top speed to do their purchasing.
Saint was amassed at the ease with which results were accomplished, including a feat of deft lechmerem requiring a to him a thing separate from life—a feat of deft lechmerem requiring a to him a thing separate from life—now he saw it for the humanity—a by-product of the humanity—a thrill she discovered, too, that it brought a thrill she found, too, that it leisurely aside from the money that it brought. He was amazed by his imagination as busy as ever only instead of being what he now considered a vagina and demoralizing a woman, and was building high dreams over the shabble little commissioner with over Davy, who knew exactly talked over with Davy, who knew exactly they could afford to pay for it. Finally he had reasoned cut concrete plant, and he was building high dreams, immediately after which he would have to go and tell Valerie
the afternoon of Valerie's visit to the museums he had seen her as a child, he spent his Sunday afternoons at the museum or art palace. The pictures he saw but Saint had gained admission but Saint had gained admission and he and the girl had the chance to with all of its miliants to them, to see the museum for a while, then on sit at a table and let their tail drift where it would father. The sweetest, the gentlest artist but the little essential snack. Once she said passionately: "Only exhibitions should be allowed to create art. You see the pitiful thing is that you have to be alone, and he won't go to us去 see him. He has a creed, and he must break
Sometimes, in brighter models, Valerie would tell of the other side of their life; the casual comings and goings of people who could sing, paint, act—New York, and the terrible endord of its nights. Then Saint would momentarily revert to his old god and exclaim: "I want that life, Val, I want it terribly," or "That's the real thing. Can't you just feel that, Val?" and she would reassure him with: "But, don't you see, you can have all of that and more when you have succeeded at what you are doing. That's what I want for you, freedom—then beauty."
Then Mamba had taken a hand in their affairs. Employing her old tactics, she had insinuated herself into the good graces of Valerie and had attached herself to her as personal maid. Then one night, when Saint was telling Valerie good-night, she stumbled into the room at the door and asked them to take the excessive time of some of the more important things. She was always some deep design if they would like to accompany her to a special midnight service at her church. Saint committed the manner immediately and turned a knowing grin upon her. "Old Machavelli," he thought, "she has something in. I wonder whether
she is really doing it for love of us. He is really doing it for love of us. Against the next difficulty of one of her precious daughters* he finally found her. There was a piece of plaster was thrilled at the prospect of her love.
Mamba led the way through an alley so narrow that both walls could be touched at the same moment with the extended hands, and on into the labyrinth of backyard passageways of lower East Bay, then suddenly through a side door into a darkened corner of the large room that served the house. This was no ordinary service subject to the occasional invasion of a white visitor in search of local color. It was a section of Africa transplanted to new soil and, with the lapse of a century, still black with jungle mystery, crimson with jungle passion. Mamba seizing a moment when the fatalities of the swaying cross were locked in the way of the heart, got them unobserved into a dark corner near the door. Over them, like crash of breakers, swept the terrific, cumulative intensity of the worship, now throbbing with an old terror of jungle gods, again lifting suddenly into raptor adoration of the new Christ. This, and the pounding rhythms of spiritualism, were a personal rejuvenation of the music, so fascinated and yet frightened the white girl that she sat huddled against Saint, clinging to his hand with tense fingers, her head pressed against his shoulder. While between them and the nearest group of worshippers, Mamba sat on guard with her right and cryptic monas and a smile, how much inconspicuously about her prim� mouth in a baring of formidable teeth in a thin un-curving line.
It was in the art gallery on the following afternoon that the avowal had come. A silence had grown between them. The high, windowless walls muted the occasional street noises and surrounded them with a barrier gallery that waited for them out in the winter afternoon. The young lovers sat so quietly that a casual observer would have thought the room unoccupied, and in that deep silence there grew up between them so complete a communion that the final word seemed almost superfluous. Saint raised his eyes at last and found the girl's fixed upon him with their intent, reading look. He took heg hands and said very softly, "I love you, Valerie." In the sudden awakened silence, the words seemed to hover in the air about the girl, almost one of sadness, "And I love you, Saint." They leaned forward, then, like two children, and kissed, and presently took their way home through the darkening street, carrying their miraculous secret so carefully past the street windows of their friends that they scarcely spoke again still when said soody-bye.
But gradually, as the weeks passed, they began to substitute long walks for strolls, and the art gallery. Saint began to see his old enthusiasts for his guitar and his art. It was the store and its possibilities, now and Saint did more of his work there, making him forget himself, then making him forget himself with a bigger store, more stock, perhaps a second store some day, perhaps a third store, Valerie would have scarcely a word to say, and she did not always follow his flights of his reapplied imagination.
...
And now, on this momentous morning, Saint stood upon the doorstep of the church, looking down at the lower Meeting Street, and listened to St. Michael's measured announcement that the hour for his first induction was beyond the closed door. He executed a tremendous effort of will, with brittle fingers, and promised to run over in his mind the things that he wanted from his enclosure, the illuminators, and seed-new large piazza where visiting Ralph could congratulate him and do his own purchasing." At that point the door was opened by a "Yes, sir," she said in answer to his inquiry, "Mr. Raymond is expectant. He passed in, and the door closed softly behind him. When he was again on the doorstep, he with the big form of his employer filling the opening of the door, large, large, large, firm hand on his shoulder.
"Well, you have what you want, haven't you?" he asked.
"I should say I have, sir."
"Good luck to you, then. I must confess that I am surprised as well as please with you, results. But, I know I will tell it will be. By-going directly with you in future. My congratulations and warm regards to your good mother, please."
Had he got what he wanted! Saint had to smile. A new wing for agricultural implements, fertilizers, and seed, a big pizza that would attract the Negroes to idle and feel at home, authorization to do his own buying and answerable to Mr. Raymond alone. Then, right on top of it all—right smack out of the blue—a salary raise to twenty-five dollars a week. The boy felt just a little intoxicated as he turned away from the big Meeting Street mansion.
When he arrived at Atkinsons; Mamba admitted him; then, as no body was looking, she gave him a pre-订购价 $100,000; he�anled by a teer that was distinctly a throwback to the East Bay epoch of her life.
"Ain't no use to hang back, Mr. Saint. Ah sho knows it when Ah sees it. She's in de parlor now wait-in for you, an' she's done all broke out wid it."
"You're a suspicious old devil," he told her with a grin, "and if I didn't brave such a deep respect for the law I'd tell you to your teeth what real-ly think of you."
Yes, Valerie was waiting for him. The street windows were closed, as is the custom in the old city, and the light in the room was dim and chill. An open fire strove valiantly but only half successfully to bring it to life.

But Saint, usually quick to feel the mood of another, was more shy than he was, with shining with excitement, and his color was high under the tan of his skirt. He did not linger over her hands, but gave them a short, vehement grip and released them. He have come for your congratulations, and he has given me every way.

He took her hand and held it between both of his, but his hand was still beside her. He took her hand and gave her the odd impression of being focused, not on her face, but on his.

The Harmony of This Negro Choral Organization Over the Radio Has Increased the Deposits of One of Texas' Largest Banks!
(EDITOR'S NOTE: This article was submitted to the editorial department of Chicago, Illinois and Baltimore, Maryland, several weeks before the Coleridge-Taylor Choral Club's annual second National Bank of Houston, Texas. Thus the feature story, with the membership newspapers in the current issue as originally written by Mr. Wilson, was no longer appearing in program books for this white financial institution. This Houston musical organist's work was no longer appearing in program books for this white financial institution at Houston, Friday night, November 6, in a colossal song fete and triple choral club contest, the other two contesting be the Hymnals for Fort Worth and the G. S. Conner Choral Club of Waco. The program is being spent a new-Triebite daily newspaper.)

IF RADIO fans of the country, particularly those who are rather fond of singing, should happen to tune in on KPRC, broadcasting station of the Houston Post Dispatch (daily white newspaper with a radio plant operating on a frequency of 920 kilocycles), some Tuesday evening between 7:30 and 8:00 o'clock, Central standard time, and hear the Second National Jubilee Harmonizers, they will enjoy a rich and rare musical treat.
For every Tuesday evening during this half-hour period the celebrated Coleridge Taylor Choral Guild, applauding the second National Bank of Houston and singing under the radio control of the Second National Harmonizers, renders an outstanding radio program of Negro songs,
It might be interest here to state, when these race singers began their National Bank this financial institution ranked fourth among the banks in the last report made by the last report was made by the banks to the United States compartment of the second National was in third place.
Beginning Tuesday evening, April 12, 1929, largely as a three-month extension of the reaction to the effort, this local white banking house has been so the harmonizers will be kept on the air for an indefinite period of time of the date of the first radio program. These colored singers are easily the most popular of the many KRC, and many music lovers content that the programs rendered favorably with, and in some instances the program of the radio chain system is the precept that these Houston singers of color will bud into the national field in the not distant future.
At present, the Colledge-Taylor Choral Club is laying plans to attend the 1930 meeting of the National Association of Negro Musicians, Incorporated, which will convene in Chicago in 1931. The main plan materialize it is highly possible that music lovers in other sections of the country will get a chance to hear and enjoy the premier choral music of America, during its proposed tour. Brief Sketch Concerning Club The Samuel Colledge-Taylor Choral Club, named after the eminent composer and conductor, was organized in Houston during the spring of 1923, and, excepting a few minor changes in its
kept practically intact for nearly seven years, and the objects of the club are: To develop the intent musical talent among the Negro race; to inspire musical culture and appreciation; to stimulate; to stimulate an interest in and desire for the higher and higher public programs for the musical entertainment and enlightenment of the worthwhile contribution to the Negro worthwhile contribution to the Negro Side from its several programs in Houston (an annual spring musical festival) and the City Auditorium, which is always attended by several thousand people of both races, with the major local non-governmental local negro welfare agency), the club has appeared in several Texas towns, Texas City, Prairie View College, Rosenberg, Waco, Vinceville, Waco, Fort Worth and Dallas.
In 1926 the Colored Young Women's Christian Association was given the musical festival; in 1927 the Houston Baptist Beneficiary; in 1928 the Biblical Day Nursery was assisted in 1928, while the Christian Association was the chief gift gift to the building program of the organization which is expected to be completed.
Members Very Representative
T.O. club's membership is recruited from the business and professional ranks of Houston and includes some very aplendid voices.

The law was amended in 1923. Though a man of varied activities—religious, business, civic, fraternal, social, political and whatnot—Mr. Richardson finds time to devote his singing and managerial talent to the club, and it is largely through his vision, efforts and business administration that the Coleridge-Taylor Choral Club occupies such a place as an enviable position in the music realm.

The coming of the Reverend Homemagry Gray, to the Photonate Mining Camp created surprisingly little comment at the time. Later, when the mean of the small group of the top of the region was too low, it was not that he had differentially misled the company from whom he had rented the cabinet in which he lived and the larger unitman. It that he converted the unitman to the house, which had come after the two unfeecied. In the case, a shabby, clothes, and had been civil-spoken enough, although not recent as to his plans. It is a more plausible theory, however, that he went about his business in the future of natural manoeuvres, and the natural manoeuvres were not the least species that he would encounter any opposition. He attended to his affairs with his characteristic deformation and perisistence, and said very little about them, for the very little of a large fall. It is possible that the second might have contributed to the lack of questioning, for he arrived during that period that lies between summer and fall, when the long pressure of the unitman to the place of the man of the city is not with and black, reducing their vitality to a point at which they did only what became absolutely necessary with the hands and waited to reason until, the bracing days of the capital of the city, the for the season's work. Grayson had simply gone to the office and asked whether they had any vacant cabins. They had taken his money for six months' rent in advance, and, if the tide had been at the v�oans, it continued to be for the second month. If at the cobb, to fish in a shady spot on the river bank.
It was not until well into October, when the scrub oaks were commencing to blaze against the dark greens of the pines, that the new preacher finished the little belfry that he had glected over the gable end of the gog of his cables, and a cheap farm bell in it, installed some benchers and a reading desk, donned his vestments, and opened for service.
The Negroes in the meantime, there becoming aware of his presence. He had been quietly visiting among them, talking his strange speech, like that of a white man, telling them of his going to the town. He was going to open, and inviting them to attend. Slowly their interest in him awakened. He was so utterly unlike any preacher, or Negro for that matter, that they had ever seen, that the element of curiosity accomplished for him what no eloquence could have done.
It is likely that Saint Wentworth alone guessed the potentialities of his advent. Grayson had gone the commissary immediately after his arrival, purchased some supplies, and asked Saint if he could recommend some good woman whom he could get to come and cook for him.
The hour of the visit was a quiet one at the store, and after he had gone on his customer Saint seated himself, the counter with his legs, swinging and asked idyl: "Going to settle here?"
"Yes," the man answered, and the woman "not used to the 'sir' in addressing him," she said. "I am needed here and in God's name. I am needed here and in God's name. The white shirt I studied an intenty from under half-closed lids. Gray. Woman was rather under middle height. She shaded a shade darker than quadron. His face was serious to the point of anger and sincerity in his gaze. He spoke with deliberation and with a careful care of any one but neither then nor more than二维码 so much as a single glem of radial humor or imagination in the face. "Yes," the woman detected so much as a single glem of radial humor or imagination in the face. "Yes," the woman inquired. "Yes, but I hope to be a little more just that. There are so many things that my people need here. I am more than merely serve to them." Sohne's interest in the man extended to his strength. He was neither servile nor asserative. He seemed to take for granted that he would serve in the camp. He appeared to think it a matter of course that he would serve in the camp. Neither respect nor lack in誓约, he was merely himself and continued his questioning.
"From the North, I suppose?"
"New York City, and I studied divinity in New England. But I don't like the big cities I want to get started in the home mission field, and this is my first venture. You will realize that all of this is very new to me," and he swept his arm inclusively toward the settlement.
Saint felt a pang of pity for his censureless people because he was the last thing that he would have wanted of him. He spoke impulsively:
"Say, I'm not much of an advice giver, but you had better go slow around here. Take your good time and learn the lay of the land. There are too many things though. But I'm not quite sure. The magistrate for instance—your rival, the Reverend Whaley—the way your own people feel about certain things."
"That's very good of you, but, to be quite frank, I haven't a great deal of money. My mission is not backed by the law, but it's not a good quilt."
The people whom I have interested in the venture expect me to open for service in a month. They said up North that ought to be time enough.
"All right, only remember this isn't a New York. Better watch your step," Saint went to the back door and whooped for Davy. The young Negro entered amiling. He had a dark, intelligent face quick with an irrepressible sense of humor.
"The reverend wants a cook," Saint said. "He's your ma go and look after you."
"Oh reckon so, such."
"Well, take him along with you and see. She's level-headed, as well as she is," he said, "and things stand around here. You better see something of the reverend and the minister, make, try to keep him out of mischief." Saint smiled at his visitor. For the moment he was and spoken in the usual way, he said, "Mr. Negroes that he knew, but he was conscious of the fact that it had been stood before him, trying in his
deliberate way to decide how to be

was taking him and his mission

Saint's smile, he said briefly, "Thank

The first Sunday in October had the blue cleanness of a tempered blade. It elove the sluggish Septem-
ber vapers to ribbons and rang aud-
ily against the straight, naked boles of the plaz.
The new church stood at a little
distarge from the old meeting house.
Brave in a east of fresh whitewash and topped by its small sky-blue
belfty if stood sharply transfigured
by the clear autumnal sunlight.
From a comfortable sunbath at the end of the village, the heavy form of
the Reverend Quintus Whalley lower
to itself into the road, and proceeded
ponderously toward the old meeting house. At the same time, Thomas
Grayson arrived at the door of the new church. Presently the Sunday
silence was sent clattering by the rival chamour of the two bells.
During the last month the Reverend Quintus had elected openly to ignore the presence of Grayson in the village, in private, however polling sly fun at his speech and referring to him as "Dat Yankee 'nigger."
But now the gatige was fairly cast. There was the new church and there was no denying that its bell had at least as loud as a voice as the old one. Presently the Negroes began to leave the cabins and struggle toward the summoning bells. They gathered in little knots midway between the two buildings and discussed the situation. The talk grew in volume and bred excitement. Whaley was by no means a universally popular figure. The men especially distrusted him, and, with that play instinct that is so often their undoing, they now recognized in the situation a game of large possibilities. Eyes rolled toward the old meeting house, where the Reverend could be seen through a window peering hopefully toward them while he tugged away at the bell rose.
They hung on in the middle of the road deliberately, tantalizingly, and emitted explosive bursts of frank African laughter. The laughter increased in shrillness as the women became infected by the spirit of the occasion. No one thought of God now, and His prethyl. So, even the devil was a pallid figure of the imagination. They stood there deliberately, waiting the two perspiring divines, and having the time of their lives in the doing of it. They knew what Whaley could give them, and even those who doubted his sincerity had always been proud of his ability to "slap it to the goin and hot," there was no other dreamer or militer around who could kick up such a lathar with the man or man or shake the timbers as he could with a spiritual. But across the way hid the lure of the unknown.
A quarter of an hour passed, and the hilarity increased rather than diminished. Upon which one should they lay their bets? That was the all-young question. Then a small Negro boy, who from behind the melet church, his eyes showing white life, arrived at the group scarcely able to speak for excitement. Finally he managed to articulate: "Great Gawdamighty! De new preacher done all dress up in a long white shroud, same like uh corpse."
They had never seen a surplice, Whaley's spring always preached in his vaunted tail coat. Now a silence fell upon them. Here was a sensation indeed.
Davy seized the opportune moment and announced: "Ah goin to de new church. Come on, folks." He took his mother by the arm and, followed closely by Maum Vina and Baxter, who had postponed her Sunday morning visit with Mamba in order to be present, started toward the new building. In a moment the whole crowd was stampeded. They jammed their way through the door and stood looking about them. They were impressed by what they saw. The benches had backs, and the reading desk was an imposing structure covered with fair white cloth. Behind the desk stood the preacher in his flowing robe, and at the side of the platform a small organ glistened in a shaft of sunlight.
Across the way the old bell gave the fight, the dying, as it were, to silence. A face was thrust from a window and the voice in an expression that one would have scarcely expected to discover upon the vision of the moment. Whalley emerged like a black and menacing figure, the direction of the company's office.
In the new church Grayson stood face to face with a tremendous apprehension. He could have been a state of repressed excitement, he could have bound them to his cause and then there. The rival would have fought him. He would have flung the coils of his mellifluous voice about them and re-embarked on a mission of possessing rhythm of a spiritual.
But Grayson saw in the moment a miraculous turning to his. God, from the half-pagan, and wholly undignified, worship of the old church. He saw them as already converted and being morely that he had then Hymnalis, a prose books had been placed in the pews, but as scarcely any of his flock could read they were useless. And so he read the full morning service through by himself. Strange words flowing out over the serried benches—a beautiful rhythm—a vague loveliness of sound—a thing utterly separate and apart from himself, only the rest of the present cold. Feet comenced to shuffle, benches to creak under shifting bodies. Now and then there was a brief recrudesence of life when Grayson seated himself at the organ and sang the hymns, but in this, no less than in the reading, he was alone, and after the brief animation of each hymn the congregation's interest was first filled.
The sermon was long, for in it he told them of his plans and all that he hoped to mean to them. The election followed, and was both a financial and social failure. Not that the congregation was stingy. Every one there had a coin for the occasion, but Grayson's system was new to them. In Whaley's church this was a moment, replete with exquisite, nostril and dismal collection time that the great man was truly at his best. A plate would be set before the reading deal, and the com
THE HOUSTON INFORMER, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 23, 1929
TO break that cold which comes in an hour, or has hung on for days, try Bayer Aspirin tablets. There is no quicker way to end a cold, and the pain which goes with it. Relief starts at once, so you needn't suffer even for a little while. Any doctor can tell you that Bayer Aspirin is safe to use freely. When your throat is raw and sore, you can ease it with a simple gargle which you can make just by dissolving two Bayer Aspirin tablets in four tablespoonfuls of water. Even in tonsilitis, you need not repeat the gargle many times for full relief. Only one thing to watch—always get Bayer Aspirin! The genuine has the Bayer Cross

gregation would be cajoled, flattered wheeled, twitted with sly personal allusions, told pointed jokes, until at last, in a gale of high spirits, they would disgorge the last penny and feel themselves well repaid.
Now, when Davy, who had been unwillingly commandeered for the occasion, passed a plate among them, they kept their pennies, hoping against hope that at last the new preacher would break through his restraint and give them the usual final run for their money.
When at last the long service was over, and the recreational bymin sung it was after one o'clock. The exit was a hasty and a noisy one. They were anxious to escape in a hurry, and they did.
A strange sequel to Grayson's first Sunday morning service was the first that he did not in the last realized, but had happened. He had treasured, but he had not valing for over it. It had been God's work. Now it remained for him to till the fertile field. He was up and on early on Monday morning, intent upon launching the first of his schemes for the village. By the interest lack, he had upon the one thing that could possibly even temporarily have stemmed the tide that had started to ebb the day before, and that would have swept the entire congregation back to Whaley on the following Sunday.
This first inspired act was the installation of a vested choir. Robes for the ten best singers in the congregation! The men had gone to the fields when the new preacher set out to unfold his plan to the village, but the women gathered, and when they heard that the choir was to be given the robes and allowed to sit on the platform with the preacher, their flagging interest was immediately revived. Grayson set an hour during the afternoon for testing voices, and left them to talk it over among themselves.
That afternoon when he went to the church he found practically all the women in the camp present, dressed in their best, rolling their
eyes, giggling, and nudging each other. But there was not a man to be seen in the room, which had followed the talk with the women had been unproductive or results. Well, he would start without help, but the women then in later. In the meantime, there was no lack of enthusiasm among the women at the at a table to cope with their lack of relevance, and decided that they start. He stood for a moment, looking over the benches with their rows of colorful clothing, and glanced clear enough to wrestle by head bumps, hats, and dresses. Finally, the invisible occurred, and he asked the title of the baker, the baker, magnificent bulk of Hagar. "What is your name, my daughter, he insisted." The baker, the baker, the adopted title of baker, the baker, blood ingenuous face wrestled in smiles. Immediately a chirpy gurgles burst free. Across the invewment sound the pastor's voice fell chill and authoritative "Sing something, please. I want to party, deliberately hesitating for the situation. She stood like a child at a party, deliberately hesitating for the "Go on," he encouraged nor, "sing everything. I only want to test your
Instantly from her silence, her deceptive air of embarrassment, she launched full-voiced into song. The voice might have been that of Mamba herself. It had the same depth and tenderness in the lower register, the same whimsical way of catching for an inerceptible beat on the high notes with the effect of laughter broken by a sob. But where Mamba's voice lacked volume Hagar's came from her great lungs with the magnitude or organ music. Unfortunately, in common with the other aspirants for robes, she had remained impervious to the reproof in the voice and manner of the pastor, and now her song, beating with the spirit

They sat in soldier's chairs, one of their mother of their number was called forward to go through a constrained and self-conscious test on some familiar Finally Grayon singled out ten of the number, including Bates, and himself at the organ, he commenced to whip the raw material into shaping the body, week after week that he was in one in the village. Grayon had purchased the entire stock of white love-cloth from the commissary, as he had done the previous week. He had engaged the services of several women who could sew, and he had given them the fitting of the vestments. Then, late every afternoon, he called a rehearsal during those days of busy preparation, the huge bulk of the Revue only the energetic divine in the neighborhood.
He preached upon "the powers of darkness." He had learned something during the week, and that was the necessity of plain speech. He had flown over their heads, perhaps, but now he would talk to them so simply that a child could understand. Accordingly, with directness and acidity he struck at the hold of superstition upon the minds of his hearers. Fortune tellers and conjurers were children of hell, and their�terances were lies. Charms were devices of the devil, and those who believed in them were destined for destruction unless they turned from their evil ways and prayed for for giveness.
From where Baxter was sitting in the choir she saw a long shoulder run through the frail old body of Maum Vina. She looked keenly at her friend and saw her eyes blur under a film of tears. Baxter had been listening to the sermon, but it had been a thing apart from her own
needs. She had made no effort to personalize it, to relate it to herself. She had taken it to her room and took things in with remarkable cleanliness. What the new preacher was telling her, he was not fixed, her with his gaze when he talked? She made an horrible struggle to get up, only slowly beginning to grasp its innate. She got quickly to the feet and then carried her old car into the room, shocked at what she saw in the ancient Norse goddess. She was compelled to carry there was a nag to the whole body. Then Maime, Vika communicated to her mother, who was to sob in sleep, breathed breaths.

had walked out and had been none

an old Negro advised; "go ask Rev'

Baxter led her friend away, trying
to console her with clumsy, tender
pats, as though she were a child.
Then she noticed that the eager
light had gone out of the old eyes,
and that they no longer searched the
road with their incessant weaving
