NON-Clicking LEADERSHIP
We take this occasion to extend a message to all women and visitors who are here this week attending the forty-third annual session of the Association of Texas; and it is our wish that your meeting in this city be joined by your profession, race and society.
These women and men represent one of the higher callings extant, but they are not all God's ambassadors, and Texas has as a fine body of teachers as can found in any other state in the union.
We are proud of our race teachers at the time, and we are delighted that after nine years they have assembled to include in "Heavenly Hourness" once more for their annual meeting. We are grateful to teach and additional information to better qualify themselves for the noble work they desire.
Dealing mostly with youth when the latter's minds are in the plastic state of their years, they may essay to train and teach our young people should be prepared for the challenges of the job, for the day has passed when teachers merely keep school, but on the contrary the age demands that teachers must charge, and that they teach both in the classroom and in the library.
Many, as well as of our teachers, not only are rendering excellent service to our students, but are committing in which they abide in making heroic sacrifices and working with the salaries received by teachers of other races in the state who are serving under far more farsighted leaders.
As the guests of Houston during this Thanksgiving week, The Information Center, taken by the zenry, takes undue pleasure in making you welcome to the fastest growing city in the country and we especially invite you to visit and inspect the various buildings erected by the city and to attend our public schools.
In giving his with lectures and stereotypic demonstrations here to women and all girls over 16 years of age, Dr. Duncan is making a mighty fine contribution to the human family, and doing much to disabuse the populace of the dangers of alcohol and narcotics, only in his patients and his fees for medical services.
He is making a considerable expense to procure the exhibits and machine for his health illustrations, this much needed and helpful information to the people without money and without price, him as an advocate to the race and no more fabri.
In this day of fierce and been compelled without price, few men as him are willing to make such contributions to making up the water which will not return to the waters; he is casting bread upon the waters which will not return to him. This columnist takes the occasion both to commend and congratulate him with his effect on his health lectures, and for the fine spirit which is actuating him in performing his signal service to the city, he is highly due to their lack of knowledge upon matters of such vital importance.
Readers of The Informer will be pleased to be noted, written and journalist of New York, whose editorial contribution to the larger metrocalifornia race newspapers of the country for the past several years, is now writing a series of articles.
Rated as one of the best writers in the country, possessing a style which is both formal and engaging and logic that is convincing and genius. The three open books written by journalists should prove interesting and illuminating to readers of this paper. The informer is inexpressibly pressed to throw his light on this brilliant newspaper and magazine writer, and we invite our large readers to digress from articles and digress their contents.
Until the Negro race can produce and maintain a leadership which will function and click as it ought, the future of our country is this country and dismal. No leadership, which is always of a different kind, can be performed its holden duty by its race, will ever amount to much, and the race can make very little headway under the direction of men.

After Dr. McCreevey had made an appeal setting forth the needs of the church, Mrs. Smith asked for a personal interview. As a result of this interview, Mrs. Smith received a gift of $5,000 for the creation of a theological dormitory in memory of the name of which was changed to Johnson C. Smith University in 1923, in institutions. From this time until her death she gave $400,00 for permanent investment, $202,500 for permanent investment.

Washington, D. C.—(ANP)—Under date of November 15, Casar R. Blake, Jr., the imperial potentate of the Ancient Arabic, Egyptian Order Mystic Shrimers, made known today that he has received a check for the sum of $2,950.39 from J. C. Burger, imperial treasurer of the White Shrimers, in payment of the costs imposed upon his organizations by mandate of the Supreme Court of the United States before which court of last resort the white Shrimers lost the case in which they tried to force the dissolution of the Negro body of similar name and purpose.
There is yet due to the colored Shrimers the sum of $1,254.96 in connection with the preliminary Utopian-based action of the courts of Texas as repayment of the costs imposed by the Negroes in defendings and losing the same case before the Texas courts. Refund of this money is obligatory by virtue of the decision of the United States Supreme Court which automatically sets aside the Texas verdict.
These cases were handled before both courts in Texas and before the Supreme Court of the United States by the Chicago firm of Watkins, White and Dennison; and the earlier cases were gone into with a view of such loss, but with a view of establishing an air tight case when the court of final resort was reached. These payments mark the complete aprender and acceptance of the conclusion by the white Shrimers; and indicate the end of this case, and the establishment of a precedent.

Arkansas Company Awarded To Webb; Harmony Prevalent
Hot Spring, Ark—(AMP)-What appeared to be possible of g占量和expensive Irrigation in the courts of Arkansas and Illinois over the transfer of stock in the Century Life Insurance Company, an American corporation, came to a sudden trend nation when the principles involved settled, without perception, the entire matter out of court.
The principles in the Litigation, represented some of the most outstanding issues of this century. These Bills of China, well known for their long history, have been based on China's financial leader and successful business man, on one side, and A. E. Bush, former national grand son of the-treasurer, Mora-te Temnils of America, and at the time of his death, the Century Life; I. C. Ishak, of the known educator and former secretary and agency director of Century.
Trouble Aase Over Central Transfer
Bush and Ish were for many months stockholders in the Century. A large block of stock held by them came into possession of Jesse Bings. John Bings and his family, who had been a member of the Rings and became majority stockholder. Some months ago he announced the home office from Little Rock to Hot Springs; he did this while in the interest of economy and efficiency. Every employee that could or not be an employee was the home office at Hot Springs. Mr. Webb lost no time in putting into operation those same clean out business methods that he has used in all of his business interests. The business of the company enjoyed a remarkable in-
kingsman. A few years ago, in the A-kansas, Mississippi and Oklahoma.
Dispute arose over legal interpretation of transfer of stock and values. Bush and Ish instituted suit in Chicago against Bings. Buns were temporary victory in the Illinois court. The Bills of China were not noted in the courts of Hot Springs with the same效果.

of looking into his face with a candle and tranquil gaze that seemed to be a smile. But now, as the momentum weakened, he noticed that there was something after a smile. Then after the dislubed office stood unwound after a rallay. Finally, upon entering the office, he met with her face shook in her arms while her body shook with deep, eloquent humming of pity enriched him suddenly speciifically. He felt so fuller to be understood that his self-consciousness was shaken. This was the moment when he began to be benging, when he might enter into the surrouses of his people and be so worried as words. But now he experienced a feeling of arrogance in utterance. It came as soon as he could speak, would he be more empty symbols grinned in a foreign tongue. He grinned in a grim smile on the haunting shoulder. The sturmed woman looked up into his eyes and grinned from grief to sudden fright. "Oh me, Crea," he argued, "I hummme go home." she sobbed "Ah go to me now. I hummme go home," he go at once, and I will go home with you. It was you in trouble I want to share
"So, no," she cried in panic. "You stay here. All I'll come back. Ain't nut-tin you can do." The she was gone in a heavy�herring run down the road in the direction of her cabin.
Two days passed and Cora failed to resumper. Now Cora's visits occurred to me, no freetimes than early in the week, for the village was deserted. For the most part he found only children at the cabins, children and the ubiquitous yellow curs. The pickammimies gaped at him when he questioned, but the curs with their singular instinct for sensing the moods of their owners followed him to the grass-hanging just out of the path. The small sharp teeth hered. Finally, on Friday morning, he met Wentworth, who was swinging along the sandy road with a package under his arm.
"I suppose you're on your way to Cora's," he文的: the white man. "It's the bad about her trouble, and Fuzzy's family knocked out by it, too. He was devoted to the little fellow, used to go home to the store pretty much to every农奴."
"Com's trouble!" inquired Grayson, and Saint was surprised by the agitation reflected in his face.
"Why, yes. She lost her youngest child last night. It has been in desperate shape for a week. The whole village has been sitting around out there with her. I thought you might have noticed it. I am taking her along the road. I am going to a little money for the humiliation."
While the two had been talking they had processed in the direction of the calm, which lay well beyond the regular confines of the village and now, through the clear, resonant air, they caught the distant strains of a spiritual. Very distinctly the music sounded across the distance, not the must shouting like that of a Sunday meeting service, but the shrill, agnized voices of many wom-
made it her iten, and, trampling along an octave below them, the melody of a single fremendous bass. Saint aedict a slonge glance at his companion and saw the broad, beheaded face of a man with a spurt of naked rain. He spoke immensely: "I'm awfully worried. I thought I would have known they sent for. Whahe three night service, I thought I would have known they since. He is going to hold the funeral services tomorrow afternoon, and since. He is going to hold the funeral services tomorrow afternoon, and since. He is going to hold the funeral services tomorrow afternoon, and since. There was silence except for the man with unmighty harmonies. Gray son had stopped in the road. Finally, he came on. Wentworth. My heart is breaking with that woman's sorrow, and if I went to her Hd only give
For a full minute he stood silently, his face working with emotion. Habit had carried his hand to a small gold cross that hung on a black cord from his neck, and he fingered it absently.
Saint could think of nothing to say but a trite, "I'm sorry." Then he saw the face that he had come to think of as being insensitive, almost stoold, quiver, and the eyes fill slowly with tears. At last, still fingering the little cross with an unconscious mechanical movement, Grayson turned slowly on his heel and commenced to retrace his steps toward his cabin.
From the house of mourning swept the music of the dirge. Shrill, monotonous, unvarying, it throbbed across the sunny afternoon with its burden of human desolation, and always under the shrill grief of the women marched the sustaining beauty and power of the single enormously vital
Sunday morning was ushered in with a triumphant clanging from the old meeting house. Groups arrived, laughing and chattering, and filled the building to its doors. When the crowd had jammed the way in, Reverend Whaley started them of which a housing in刷ite. With one accord they flune themselves into it. It was eood to be back with the old agreeable God again, the God who wanted them to sing and shout, to pour their sorrow out in a flood of song, who minded his own business most of the time and had a pleasant, laughing with him when they touched up to theirs. Yes, they were foolish, and they strayed for even a few misguided weeks.
In the new church Grayson sat alone, listening to the uproar with an expression of deep sadness upon his habitually solemn face. Yes, this was the end. They needed so much and they would not let him give it to them. He had come full of confidence to bring enlightenment. His own people! Now he saw no use remaining in the empty building that was so eloquent a reminder of failure.
He rose to go, then he saw that a woman had entered silently and was sitting on the last bench, just inside the door. He walked down the aisle and stopped before her. Then he saw that it was the woman known as Baxter.
“Have you come to worship with me?” he asked.
Har was nodded violently but said nothing.
Gravson's heavy face caught a flغeting plam from an inner light. "Then we'll have our service just as thou'd the church was full," he assured her.
He retired and donned his ventments then asked her to come and sit just below the readine desk on the front bench while he held service. Vast and submissive, she went forward and took her seat before him. While he went through the service, omitting only the sermon, she kept her eye on his face with an expression of a dumb, uncomprehending steadfastness.
Gravson pronounced the benediction, then came and sat beside her. Then he said, "I am very grateful to you for coming today. You have put no heart into me."
Mr. Bessarab was overcome with embarrassment, but she managed to say, "Thank you," suh.
A silence followed during which the woman's embarrassment heightened to actual distress.
At last Grayson urged: "You do be here, you need that. I preach about, do you not?" A God of Beauty and light and loving-kindness?
Baxter's gaze was on the floor. She was absolutely still. Then suddenly he shook her head in a violent negative.
Grayson almost jumped, so unexpected was her answer.
"Then why did you come in today?" he asked.
She had trouble getting started. Words eluded her, and she was trying to not hurt him. At last she said, "Akhen is lonely at last, too. Ah,n'th' is lonely at last." Akhen set out fdo de ole church, and when答巴 Ah, see yo've here, lonely. Den Ah come in, Dall'么. The preacher got to his feet without a word, and commenced to clench his hand, not knowing what to do next. When finally the building was opened, he came back to her and he opened his hand, then she said it contained him. "I want you to keep this to remember me by,' he said. "It is called Akhen, and here, he in the front is my name and address. You must remember it, grateful to you, who knew what

U NUSUAL VERDICT
IN NORTH CAROLINA
Raleigh, N. C. —(ANP) —The verdict handed down by the coroner's investigating the death of a Negro man, known only as "Sandy" who was shot and killed in "a running gun" incident, around much interest and comment.
The verdict that the dead man went to his death as a result of being shot through the head while fleeing from officers and while engaged in firing upon them, was rendered deniable by the deceased or near where he was killed and that his companion, Olive Willett, in the arm, declared that he did not have a weapon nor did "Sandy."
Fund of $2,000 to revise the advantages of the South Plains farming area has been appropriated by the fledgling Chamber of Commerce with space in six national publications provided for in the budget.

The sale of the new policies began November 15, so that the agents must have opportunity to set up a real nonrenewal appreciation week. An ad encourages newspapers to newspaper throughout the country, and the entire National Benefit organization is being urged to go forward with all possible speed to secure $100,000,000 worth of insurance before the close of 1930.
With the impetus to be secured from the threat of war, now being put under way, National Benefit faces its thirty-second year, with high hopes for a period of two years. The company now boasts total net assets of $10,900,000, with total insurance in $6,100,000, New York claims that the highest bank back of National Benefit, policies is approximately $5,000,000, and that this, most importantly, is in liberality to policymakers.

Dr. Hamman says:
You may wear plates that seem satisfactory in that they do not drop while eating, but there are many people suffering from stomach trouble and intestinal problems in these plates in that the chewing surfaces of the beetle are hard and difficult to prepare for the stomach. This is a vital practice of people; in many cases with very difficulty of people; in many cases with very difficulty of people; and to add to their life is important to them to show.

DICKSON TALKS
ABOUT BAPTIST
CONTROVERSY
Dallas, Texas, Nov. 14, 1929.
To the Bastian Brothered of Texas and of that dawdish hand is delighted to say that dawdish hand has broken in Texas and L. W. Williamson and Boone have been happily abused. The ship longer, and will not be waved longer; and will not be waved longer and God's plan for the prosecution of the abuser has the advancement of the Baptist family has begun. more than 20 years this state has been pressed up with looms and gratters. There has been no encouragement for the young and proscriptive atics. Read the opinion of the Civil Court to say what had to say but not what W. L. Dickson had to say. Rev. E. Arlington Wilson has been and un on a scapegoat. He has made the public believe that W. L. Dickson, with the Bastian's of this state, will sing the split convention in Texas.
When we were in Paris I told Rev E. L. Harrison when he came to me to meet me not me but the Rev. A. L. Boone and to let Boone have the honor of presiding in Paris. I told Harrison that he have lost, if you win," that chay you have lost, if you win," that any one can, if you can, if any one. I came up with the idea a school = "of Rev Boone" and the my friend = "of my friend" and I have nothing in mind. But the man that he was making a mistake in that he was making a mistake in an possible = "rid of Boone as easily as he will be possible" (he Boone will) you must see him. "And they saw we had the majority and that we could vote because they had a packed roll, we appealed from the national Baptist Convention, L. K. Williams, D. L. D., LL. president National Baptist Convention, L. K. Williams, D. L. D., LL. president National Baptist Convention, L. K. Williams, D. L. D., LL. president National Baptist Convention, for the year 1927, when he knew that more than 90 percent in the house were against Rev E. Arlington Wilson could carry the Baptists of Texas as president on the field for 48 years, and I have had a constructive program all
I built the Dickson Colored Orphanage at Gilmer, about 1185 acres of land; enrolled 7,969 children in 30 years; put them out over the state for their life's work; married off 169 girls to good men; married off 49 boys to good women, and so far as our record goes, only three have separated. Not one has gone to the penitentiary. We have turned out 20 preachers that are pastoring churches located in the United States and are making good throughout the country. Several are teaching school; some are teaching music throughout the country. I have built more than 20 churches; bought the lots and built the churches on these lots, small, but they are churches. I have built a large churches that stand out pre-eminent and second to none in Texas. I am pastoring today one of the best churches and best buildings in Texas that cost $69,000. The seats in my church cost $3,650. The carpet on the ailes and in the rooms cost $1,100.
To end a stubborn cough quickly, it is important to soothe and heal the indamed membranes, get rid of the germs and also to aid the system inwardly to help throw off the trouble.
For these purposes, here is a homemade medicine, far better than anything you could buy at $25 times the cost. From a single drug, net, $26, comes of Pine. Four this into a pint bottle, and add plain granulated sugar syrup or strained honey to fill up the pint. This takes but a moment, and makes a remedy so effective that you will never do without, once you have used it. Keeps perfectly, and children like it.
This simple remedy does three necessary things. First, it loosens the germ-laden phlegm. Second, it soothes away the inflammation. Third, it is absorbed into the blood, which it acts directly on the chemical tubes. This explains why it brings such quick relief, even in the severe bronchial coughs which follow cold epidemics.
Pinex is a highly concentrated compound of genuine Norway Pine, containing the active agent of creosote, in a refined, palatable form, and known as one of the greatest healing agents for severe coughs, chest colds and bronchial troubles.
It is a warrant to give prompt relief among refunded
300; one piano cost $450 and the other cost $300. The entire indebtedness is paid for down to $16,000, which is all we owe. We have seven years in which to pay that. I have held every position of honor in Texas and in the nation, except the presidency of the Baptist Missionary and Educational Convention and the presidency of the National Baptist Convention. I was vice-president of the National Baptist Convention for seven years. I was foreign mission secretary seven years. I am a life member of the National Baptist Convention and hold my life's certificate, signed by Secretary Hudson and President E. C. Morris. Morris is dead but Hudson is still living, and he has a record on his book and I have my certificate in my safe. I have not attended the National Baptist Convention within the last few years because I wanted Dr. L. K. Williams from my state to succeed. I did not want any opposition to come to Dr. Williams through me. Dr. Williams is a good man. He and I have differed, and he made up his mind that Texas was not big enough for any one who both and he left Texas and went to Chicago and I shook hands with him and said to him: "I shall be with you, and we shall be brothers." I have lent my word.
He said to me that he only wanted to be the president of the National Association of Women in Nursing I knew I could afford to keep quiet and let him be that. I said the only thing I had to do was Miss Nannie Burroughs alone and let her build that school to suit it. I said that all that bunch of Baptists gut together; that she (Miss Nannie Burroughs) had a constructive program that she was thoroughly doing the work and doing it at a great sacrifice. And I have to hope she will continue to prepare in her work and it will continue to grow. We will have her down through our work.
Big Blunder—Big Stick Act
The Rev. L. K. Williams, D.D. L.L., president National Baptist Convention, drew it on Rev. Austin by saying: "I think you have made a mistake by going down in Texas to tell you I will believe you it again." When Dr. William杜斯, the pastor of the National Foreign Mission Board, and he did not believe it, it's a shame for the Battles of the 1960s to allow one man to get up and die in a political way to the nation of the United States. Those churches he and those preachers to his administrator and saying to them: "If you don't believe in the truth, you will not other church or another job, an your days will be full of trouble, I now, Dr. Williams ought to be horest. He said that he would no longer sit and mark my prophecy, when you go to move him you have got all kind of trouble and will split your National Baptist Convention. And you are going to find it hard."

Dr. Williams meant what he said if Dr. Williams meant what he said he should have presented any cost. He should not go around and organize a settlement all over the United States to prevent the people that the people want him. The Negro Baptist representative constituency should put him in office, pretending men in office. White Baptists change their president every two years to prevent the president of the convention but one year; no man serves as president of the Southern Baptist Convention in the New York Baptist Convention they die out; they dismember one and he mugues up another.

Newport News, Va.—(ANP)—Nergo took an issue in the gubernatorial election in this state last week, and it is said divided their votes between the straight Democratic ticket and the Hoover Independents and Republicans. Commenting on the result, J. Thomas Newsome, prominent Nergo attorney and editor of the Star, who issued the following statement: “The only surprising thing in the result of the election on November 5, last, was the tremendous majority given Dr. John Garland Pollard. A former governor, he said the fusion ticket would have made a better showing.
“The result, however, demonstrates that the governor came to the polls they eliminated from the equation issue, false issues and unfounded charges, and voted their approval of the governor in Virginia and delivered a mandate to those elected to carry forward the governor in administration. There was no race question involved in the real issues of

A
Has Changed.The Style for Hair
It doesn't take long for a new idea to take hold when it makes us more attractive and is easier to use.
Not long ago "Connie's Hot Chocolate" the new musical hit conceived by Lizzie McGuire, York and when folks saw pretty Marlon Egbert and found out how she kept her hair so soft, bright and smoothly brushed, they followed her style. "I started dressing my hair with La-Em-Straight. I first heard how her hair was so soft. Egbert had been so soft, smooth and glossy ever since, that I wouldn't let a day pass without working a little La-Em-Straight into my hair before I brush it."
"Connie's Straight" hair dressing makes hair smooth and bright in 30 seconds, and it isn't cool. That's why I wear it with the men than the girls. More than a million folks prefer it to any other hair dressing. You can get it any drug store in either 26c or 60c size.

FLAVOUR VEGETABLES
Many women fail to get the most out of their vegetable dishes, either because they fail to add a touch of sugar. Too much water absorbs the flavor of the vegetables (a small quantity of water at that) brings out the full flavor of the vegetables, while quick energy food to the dinner. Try these simple little recipes and note the “difference.”

Cleveland, Ohio.-Colored voters of Cleveland emerged not only victorious out of the recent municipal election as far as representation in the council and on the board of education concerned, but from it there can be no doubt that the leader is Councilman-elect Dr. Leroy N. Bundy. This new leader, possessed as he is with a commanding perseverance, and with a resolute, and determined multifaceted such as is solely needed at this time.

Editorial
LYNCHING EVIL AND THE NEGRO
According to a news release from Atlanta, Georgia, the Commission on Interracial Cooperation, through its director, recently a telegram to the governor of Florida, depreciating the latest demonstration of humnish cultur in the Everglade State, and calling upon the state executive for a "prompt apprehension and conviction of the perpetrator."
Going further in the meantime to the Florida governor, the commissioner, however heinous the victim's crime, lynching can have no defense under a government of law."
The Negro, who was the victim of the mol's hellish fury and heathenish orgy, had been accused of committing a criminal outrage upon a young white girl, yet the guilt of the defendant had never been established by due process of law.
As it is in the color of the alleged criminal and the racial connection of the alleged victim is high carages mobs and influences judges and jurors in their decisions.
Right here in Houston, at least four or five cases of criminal attacks, where all the principals were white, have taken place during this year, and not in one solitary instance has a single culprit been convicted of the crime, although both barricade and bestial offense, although several arrests were made.
On the other hand, in one case where a Negro was accused of attacking a white girl, he was given a speedy trial and sentenced to prison for life notwithstanding he proved an alibi through the testimony of reputable witnesses, and much of the state's evidence was fishy and as full of holes as a sieve.
And although both barricade and bestial offense, although several arrests were made.
Right here, well, there is where the rub lies!
The Negro is a victim of lynch law, both legal and illegal, not because of the crimes charged at his hands, but rather because of the color of his skin and the double standard of citizenship which holds sway in this country, most notably in the South. This double standard, with one law to convict and punish blacks and whites, and another to oblige and abolish whites for the most behilarious crime, is making a mockery of justice and constitutes a criminal outrage upon American institutions and ideals.
As long as there is such a dual standard in this country and alleged criminals are tried and punished more on account of their racial affiliation than the misdeeds charged against them, we are going to have lynch law in some form.
The Negro is victimized more by mobocracy and other outraged groups than by our racial group in our polyglot constituency, and it is because the law of the land, particularly of the South, sets the black race down or forth as a "thing" apart from the rest of the population.
The Negroes are disfranchised, segregated, proscribed against jim-crowd and otherwise regarded and treated as beasts rather than as human beings; and even in most courts of Dixie there are two types of justice—one for white citizens and another for colored people.
Perhaps it can be stated better by saying that the law of the South is pre-white and anti-Nero.
In other words, if a white man is charged with committing some offense against the state and society, he is given every benefit of the doubt and considered innocent until his guilt is firmly established through due process of law; whereas as soon as a crime is laid at the hand of some Negro, he is immediately judged guilty and in numerous instances all the favorable testimony of the court of the black man is not change or allay the mobocratic spirit pervading the court.
Preventive methods are getting better nowadays than curative measures, for there is still much truth in the ancient adage that "a stitch in time saves nine."
If the Negro's status were the same as other American citizens; if he could exercise and enjoy his constitutional and inalienable rights of citizenship; if the constitution of the United States were some thing more than a "mere scrap of paper"; if the laws of the land were administered fearlessly and impartially; if our Christianity were not as "sounding brass and tinkling cymbals," there would be manifestations of mob law, either through legal tribunals or by the judges of Judge Lynch's famous American pastime.
It is both absurd, inconsistent and preposterous to preach a doctrine on one hand advocating the abolition of lynch law, while on the other hand the very practice pursued by the expounders of this gospel tends to create and feed the mob spirit.
As long as Negroes are enmeshed in political slavery, they are held accountable for their conduct and inherent rights and otherwise classified and treated as beasts of burden, just so long will mob law hold away in this country.
Inferior railroad accommodations on the common carriers of the South are nothing but the manifestations of lynch law; for black passengers are forced to pay the same fare as other passengers, yet denied and refused first-class service. This is both lynch law and grand incarceration. Negroes must be in the worst sections of the city, with attendant bad living conditions, disease, ignorance and crime, is attributable to the spirit of Judge Lynch, the dominant figure in the life of the South.
Taxation without representation is one of the obvious methods employed by Judge Lynch to rob Negroes of their rights under the constitution, to divest them of all self-respect and to destroy their morale.
Negroes to the 'gallows, electric chair and penal institutions for the most trivial offense, and in many instances where the evidence proves conclusively their innocence, is a legalized form of lynch law.
Paying the Negro starvation wages and then expecting him to become a fine, honest, upstanding American citizen, is another example of mobocracy, with its laughable inconsistency.
Refusing to educate and train the Negro for intelligent citizenship, is another example of parasites, in one of the "hidden ball" tricks of the players on the clubs in Judge Lynch's League, Inc.
The Internet has no criticism to offer against the action of the commission, or any other organization, which is seeking to combat this dreaded monster and remove the damnable scourge from the confines of our national commonwealth, but this paper contends that such offers could be accelerated if such bodies would endeavor to safeguard to the abolition all the rights and warriors under the constitution and bill of rights of this re-

offer the most meager educational opportunities to Negroes.
The Challenge of Progress and the Young Teacher
"Regardless of what may be justly said with respect to the differences between the two, the reflective work reflects the worthy achievements of pioneers in the field of Negro education and the background for the celebration of the forty-fourth anniversary of the establishment of Negro schools, serve the more serious and constructive purpose of motivating a critical, sympathetic understanding of our society, and accept educational theories and practices, and the challenging experiences." "The present generation of young Negro teachers occupies a unique and courageous position in the history of his old order and the new. It, then, becomes our duty to honestly and courageously appraise the traditions, values, and beliefs of the purpose of discarding all that may not be compatible with the needs of our students, building only on those foundations that are regarded as true, safe and
A New Idealism and the Courage of Action Needed to Perfect Mergers
In the place we must disinform students, we must disinform instruments. No longer must we be content to measure our program's increases—increases in numbers of schools, numbers of pupils, numbers of teachers, numbers of graduates, numbers of students. It is highly probable that we can materially reduce some of these, particularly the great profit to the state educational institution. I do think reduction, especially if we combine the great profit—combinations of schools, highly desirable. We have more schools, publice properly direct. Personally, I am not prepared to concede that many schools are not adequately constructed of schools, highly constructed, efficiently taught large schools at even than any kind at all.
The county training school and other institutions or enlarging and merging or combining small schools in adjacent communities, with the importance of enlarging and merging or combining small schools in adjacent communities, with the importance of work of teaching, point the way to better things for the rural child; to better things for the students; to better things and leadership for those who have the privilege of serving in the rural community.
“The acid test of the Negro’s interest and ability in the field of education is found in our private institutions, mostly denominational in support and control and commonly called colleges. Most of these schools are embarrassed because they lack the have physical necessities required for good work, comfort, and respect. With but three or four mentions they are overgrown, so need are schools that have not only lost their places in the advancing procession, but their way on the educational progress.
“The race and state look to us to do something about them; and our hostility will not forgive us if we fail to act or if we are unwisely. There are at least three obvious courses we may take: we may continue to raise ourselves and delude unwavering children by boastfully unwavering truth regarding the institutions: we may rise to the occasion and pursue the wise policy of merging into one all of those unromising small colleges having reasonable related purposes, sources of support and control; or we may junk them. Each of the last two courses has merit.”
“It is a pity that we will, for many years yet, continue to suffer great losses in money and educational ideal and service to satisfy the vanity of misdirected personal ambition, false race pride, and group or denominational rivalries.”
A Passion For Excellence As Education, Alm
"Without hive* exhausted, by any means, the subject has to do with the organization of our educational experience; by word to the more important matter of our educational theories and practice, knowledge and linguistic skill are commonly conceived and pursued as the core of our education. This is true in spite of our free tails of character, citizenship, worthy use of culture, occasion, and the like while we are in the field of the fundamentals. We will be religious to have his pupils attain a high degree of mastery in those knowledge and skills which may be required for happy living and good citizenship. He will seek to give them a command of their language; a mastery of their language; and such knowledge of their language are needed in their daily business affairs; and such knowledge of their language are equipped for worthy citizenship in a state which is democratic in world that is theoretically friendly.
Well Trained Football Team Superior Example of Self Activity and Expertness in Education
"In my opinion football, viewed from the standpoint of immediate relevance, is a sport with a dynamic activity, curricular or extracurricular, being conducted in our secondary schools and colleges today. In the past, we have selected men are taught to think and fight their way through discipline, loyalty, courage, cooperation, loyalty, physical and mental coordination and alertness. And they do this, in a manifold way, in preparation to the performance of most of their elderly, even those who attentively watch the game. It is of interest to observe further that during all this exhibition of youthful skill of mind and body, they thrilled. Impractical and undesirable that our schools become athletic clubs or that undusum amphibia be placed on athletics by them; but we must not allow them to be used for building or at its place both in the no-

Bears and Dragons In Scoreless Tie; Snow Covered Grid
(C. F. RICHARDSON, Jr.)
Marshall, Texas, Nov. 22.
The Samuel Huston Dragons of Austin roared with cover of snow, mud and water; the roaring devouress for four quarters, because of the fact that the game was played on the field, covered with snow, mud and water; the edition of the field forcing each team to resort to straight football. All the roaring devouress they were doped to, they outplayed the Dragons; as shown by the fact that their opponents three and three times the 20-yard line, but they could not over the winning touchdown. The ball was heavy, but several were tried, and the Dragons plotted one, when "Stacy" Walton speared the oval out of the ozone for three seconds, when the devouress went awry, but she intercepted one.
"Wells" Vellie and "Waters" Wattles carried the hunt of the Bears offensive and performed wonderfully. Pumkins were conspicuous by their plumbers and slanted off to trickle for substantial gains. The going was exceeded by forward移动 wall of the Dragons in the persons of Dorn, O. and Wattles, and clenched tenuously and persistently to Nellums as he plowed through the line, and even with this added burden
The spectators were furnished with a thrill and the Huston team with a chill, when Watkins sidestepped his way through the entire Dragon team for about 30 yards and was stopped on the sloped in attempting to dodge the safety man. On another occasion "Parson" Perry missed a sure touch down in the share of a forward pass with an oven field ahead of him. "Big Shoe!" Rottig, "Romans" Turner, and Rarlows wrought valiantly in the line; they really made the game miserable for the Huston backs. Walton and Chandler registered some neat reds for their alma mater, but the task was too great.

COMMISSION WILL
GIVE CASH PRIZES
IN ESSAY CONTEST
Atlanta, Ga.—The Commission on Interracial Cooperation, with headquarters at 409 Palmer Building, announces the offer of a cash prize of $100 for the high school pupil submitting the best paper on "America's Tenth Man," and a prize of like amount for the school making the best use of the commission's "Tenth Man" project. The contest is national in scope and all pupils of high schools and junior high schools are eligible to compete. It closes April 1, 1930. A 5000-word pamphlet of source material has been prepared by the commission and will be furnished free to any one interested, together with full information as to the conditions of the contest.
The announced purpose of these prizes is to encourage as widely as possible the study of the Negro's part in American history, which, according to the commission, is much more interesting than is generally supposed. It is believed that such a study will be helpful to the children of both race, promoting more intelligent and objective attitudes on one side, and developing wholesome pride of race on the other. The commission asks the cooperation of high school principals and teachers, and also invites correspondence from pupils who may be interested.

on all its cylinders, and for a baseball or football team to win games, the machine must click with clocking on. If the automobile is missing on one of its cylinders, the car may run, but not stop. If the machine is true of a grid machine or baseball aggregation when the players fail to work cooperatively, as a general thing, Negro leaders rise to positions of power, prestige and playing upon the duplicity of their followers; but as soon as most of their enemies are gone they must begin to flirt with and worship other gods—fattening frog fors to it.

a place is vacant in our hand;

As we stand here we are reminded of that solemn hour when we, too, must stack arm in death and give account of our stewardship here. Brother Ford has stood the test, as we all must do sometime noon or later. Our sympathy goes out to the bereaved wife and relatives, but the equest, quickest and most ever-legging consolation is found in Jesus Christ.
