We felt every emotion of pain pictured in his writing, but that was not the thing that made our hearts bleed, we know and God knows that the powerful rulers should not have taken advantage of a people, who had made their way over every obstacle, but the saddest in our mind is: "The white man's Christian civilization," as he calls it, which holds in itself no protection for the weak and help- SOCIETY AN ```markdown ``` Mrs. Wade McCutcheon and daughter, Miss Myrtle from Sulphur Springs, Texas, are house guests of Rev. and Mrs. J.

Its out side show to the world is as white washed tombs, but its inside is as "dead men's bones." It is the fairest type of deceit. You talk about the Huns, but God knows, the Huns didn't beat the actions at Tulsa. Every action proved that it was greed and envy that caused this awful atrocity. Did it stop in robbing, killing, stealing and driving out the progressive citizens? No, but still they are bringing every force to bear to prevent the rehabitation of these progressive citizens. If the United States could go across the seas to stop the Huns and make them respect property rights and safeguard human lives what is the matter with its power in Tulsa and all other places, where passion of men control their judgment? If outside color governs actions, we would rather be a Negro of the blackest hue, because we fear white faces are not a true sign of a pure heart no more than a black face is a true sign of a bad heart; if the white faces were signs of pure hearts this would be a great and safe country. There are some, who are as pure as the noonday sun, but they don't exercise their power enough and the country is losing its Christian standing.
