THE INFORMER. SATURDAY. FEBRUARY 20.1943
BROWSING ROUND
With MARIE
Young’s Home Is Scene Of
Elaborate Birthday Party
PRETTY LITTLE AFFAIRS
The Hobart Thomases came through last Saturday right with a
lovely party for the Informer staff, mainly to show us off to Mrs.
Annie Belle Douglas, manager of the New Orleans Sentinel, and
Jimmie Clarence Davis, manager of The Dallas Express.
Sammie Lee Henderson, in the proofreading department,
that Mrs. Hobart Thomas made a lovely hostess ,as she provided for
the welfare of he. guests.....Funny thing about newspaper people,
whenever they get together they always talk shop. This occasion was
was no exception, and the trend of the conversation followed the
lines of victory and how our paper could help to speed it. . . . Did
Warren Brown really try to deal a grand slam on us? I wish he had
been there Saturday night.
1 The members of the staff who enjoyed the affair were: Mrs. A.
B Douglas, J. C. Davis, Mr. and Mrs. Carter Wesley, Obelia Wash-
ington, Joseph Carper, Clarence Cubia, Jasper T. Duncan, Sammie
Lee Henderson, and Oran Elliott.
Cora Woods Willis had as her guests “Jo” and “Ike,” Mr. and
Mrs. Isaac May, Jr., of Ogden, Utah; Mrs. Ardelle "Dell” Brown of
Denver, Colorado; and Mrs. P. K. “Bert” Fonsworth for what seem-
ingly turned out to be a trip around the world. (Remember, kids,
the type of hobo party we once indulged in?) They toured the
town, starting at the Civilian Defense Vocational School on Dart
street, where Tom Holley showed them the works. • . . Their next
stop was, at the Modern Dining Room on Jensen Drive.....Hunger
struak. and forced them into the Airway Tavern for dinner number
one. " From there they found their way to Maggie Moshe's, where
they found her and hubby already swamped with the gang: Catherine
Roett, Alma Evans, Annie Mae Walker, and Mr. and Mrs. Purnell. .
. * The group finally ended up with their feet tucked under an-
other table—this time Percy and Mack Williams'. Percy robbed the
box to feed the folk. . . , Cora tells me that all in all it was a very
pleasant way to spend an evening.
Thelma Lawson put on the feed bag when she was hostess to
our guild in a very informal meeting Monday evening. Ira, the man
of the house, took over and showed the wife how to make the meet
a more interesting one. . ... Lucille Hicks delivered me safely back
into town from that neck of the woods.

Martha Thompson is slated to say “1 Do” very soon to Alphonse
McAfee. Martha is an active “Y” worker in the B and I Department.
Mrs. Ardelle Brown of Denver, Colo., visited with her sister,
Mrs. Maud Mitchell, and mother at 1911 West street for three or
four weeks. Dell is a veddy goot friend of Cora's, Mrs. George
Willis, you know.

Freed of marriage vows and pretty as a college co-ed, Blanche
Bellezaire, the former Blanche Crier and now an important cog in
the Adjutant General's office, Washington, D. C., spent several days
here visiting her mother, relatives and friends. Blanche says that to
most of, the Houston chapter of government workers in the Nation’s

name with the solemn promise to be ever faithful to Southern Uni-
versity's Edward Maybuce, now of the U. S. army.
George Spencer, Wiley man, and former local leler carrier, is
home on furlough, and incidentally he is Lieutenant Spencer. Creat-
ing lots of interest, too.
A Dallas columnist reports that the Davis-Gibson romantic ship
has been completely drydocked. It was a quiet affair, especially down
here, where all Don still semi-mum said over a smile was: “She was
a sturdy vessel when launched, but I guess part of the crew, a great
part, got seasick and quit ship. Their landing deservedly was easy.”
From Baton Rouge, La., comes personality-changed Coldye
Nance to visit cousin Marjorie Purnell and sister Zenobia Nance
Covington.
Because a pretty local lady was determined to defend her honor
a Camp Wallace soldier, said to frequently serve s an MP, learned
that men in uniform must be gentlemen, too when he was allegedly
placed in the guardhouse following his brutal attack upon the lady
in question near a local night spot. The lady properly defended her
honor at the cost of several scars. It is because mention of the sol-
dier’s name would perhaps identify and embarrass the lady that no
names are called, but the soldier, despite his uniform and possibili-
ties of facing fire, acted the typical rat and one day we hope to find
it plausible to reveal him. He is local and is noted for manhandling
women who defy his forced attentions. And “nertz” to those men
who watched him do it. Perhaps they wanted something to criticize
women for.

Boynton Observes
Race Relations Day
The members of Boynton were
honored on last Sunday by having
had several outstanding persons
worship wtih them in observance of
Race Relations Day. Mrs. McDade
spoke briefly and in a most inter-
esting manner about the WAAC;
stating qualifications, educational
advantages and the urgent need of
performance of such noble duties
by women.
While the memory of this still
lingered, Mrs, Piccola A. Wade,
noteworthy laywoman and field
worker for the Woman's Society of
Christian Service, brought an il-
lumined and fervent address on
“Testing Grounds for Democracy.”
She so beautifully unfolded what
the Methodist Church has done
along the line of race relations and
the upbuilding of Christianity as a
whole. She gave a brief insight on
why we observe race relations on
PEPPER BOX
On Burrus school campus El-
nora Sanders has taken Milton
Reed from Mildred Washington.
But she is singing please don’t
leave me baby. It seems as if
Bonnie Jean has taken Claud Dix-
on away from Daisy Upton. But
all that she needs is to get hipped.
This is strickly Groove jive. Do
you dig? I dug Helen Boon and
she is really a hipped chick in-
asmuch as she swooned Robert and
Mary is just like the bear, she
ain’t nowhere.
Listen all of you hep cats. This
is most mad. Dig me? Here is the
latest jive from P. W. H. Wonder
why Sylvia Minix can’t get hepped
to the cat, Herbert Lee Prince.
He is nurtz about her. Lillie B.
Goodwin and William Tolliver,
Brother, are as fine as May Wine
randatwice as nice as Paradise, but
it seems as if Betty Joyce Larry
is trying to buzz in, but no solid.
What is the matter with Lula
Brown? She has been keeping in
lately since that certain cat has
gone away, and that chick ’sho
looks lonesome. Hannah Brown
and Ola Mae Williams can’t seem
to cop all the plays and dig all
the lays. What the matter chicks?
It seems as if Earnest McCullough
is really going out for Eleanor
and is solidly on time and so Perry
had better be on his P’s and Q’s.
Tommye D. Thornton is back in
the groove with her old usta be.
Marion Tapscott and Arthur
Singleton are still deeply in love
but Marion, I want to dig your
plea. You have no bargain, take
it from me. It seems as if Joyce
Burnett and Robert Lee Massey
are really love bugs. Since he is
about to don one of the U. S. uni-
forms, she is really copping the
jive. Dig Archie Winters and
James Atkins. They are frail as
this Sunday. Our speaker cited
many desirable and tangeible fea-
tures of this connection. She ex-
presed too, that our attitude
toward other races is a de-
termining factor as well as their
attitude toward us. She gave com-
parative analysis of the progress of
race relations in this section as
compared with other sections of
the country. Emphasis was placed
on "striking while the iron is hot.”
In other words, take advantage of
all opportunities and facilities for
training in order to bring out all
possibilities and capabilities for
service in war efforts and civilian
life. Her message was even more
vitalized and enriched because of
actual experiences correlated with
facts. As a final appeal ahe encour-
aged all peoples to accept educa-
tional opportunitiea so that we may
appreciate and rightfully deserve
a nail and that's no tale. They
have been chased out or Stude-
wood. Verna B. Sainsbury is get-
ting to be a real fly chick with
all of the hep cats from “Stude.”
Here is the lick from St. “Nick.”
Gertha Mae Herbert has been seen
at the U. S. 0. quite frequently.
What is the lick chick? Since
Buddy Boy has been in the army
the light still burns for Katherine
Bankston and Donal Lee; seeming-
ly Cupid had struck a cord there.

The lovely home of Mr. and Mrs.
Sam Young, 404 East 30th, was the
setting of a natal day party given
by Mr. Young honoring his lovely
wife on her birthday.
The elaborate table was laid with
a lace medallion cover, centered
with a reflector on which was an
arrangement or valley fruits in a
crystal basket indusbursed with
pittis porum leaves and flanked by
crystal candalabra with red tapers
was the admiration of all. The side
board arrangement was a lovely
three tier birthday cake surroun-
ded by a beautiful green running
ivy. Chrysanthemums and an ar-
rangement of American beauty
roses and pine burrs decoration
made the attractive and well ar-
ranged home a scene of beauty.
Beneath a soft ray of candle light
place Valentine cards were used as
souvenirs. This added much to the
gaiety of the affair. Mrs. Young's
attendance as the brightest spot of
the calendar to them.
At 8:30 the guests began arriving.
Mrs. Sam Anderson received them
and made them acquainted. She
was assisted by Mrs. Mattie Jami-
son. These two lovely ladies were

Tennie Williams and Emma Booker,
sister of the hostess. Guests were
registered by Mattie Jamison.
Many beautiful and useful gifts
covered the bed in the exquisitely
furnished north room. The later
part of the evening was devoted
to socializing.
The menu for the occasion was
one of superb grace and dignified
simplicity. Everyone was complete-
ly thrilled and captivated by the
delightful evening and finally made
their departure. All wished Mrs.
Young many, many more happy
birthdays.

Bishop C. Davis, speaking recent-

and its name, declared, “As indi-
viduals the followers of Jesus are
called friends, disciples, brothers.
Saints," but we never read in the
Bible of the friende church, dis-
ciples church, brothers church or
Saint's church.
"The work of God needs men end
women who are consecrated to
evangelize the world, forgetting
personal comfort and advantages.
The Church of God must awaken
to the fact of giving to God’s cause,
supporting the work, giving to the
church and the minister. It to both
a privilege and duty. Even so hath
the Lord ordained that they which
preach the gospel should live of the
gospel." He added, “Those who
minister unto the people in spirit-
ual things, should, reap their car-
nal. If we have sown unto you
spiritual things, is it a greet thing
if we shall reap your carnal
things.”
