The Dallas express. [volume] (Dallas, Tex.) 1893-1970, 1921-02-05

another one of those ideal church
going days, and good services were
reported from all churches. Rev.
K. Wells, p. Il. of the Quannah Dis
trlct worshpped at Anderson Chapel.
Rev. Curry preached at ST. John
Baptist Church. Miss Myrtle John
son spent Sunday in Henrietta. Prof.
II. ID, Robinson spent the weekend
in Abilene Rev. d. d. Bonner of
Anderson Chapel A. M. e. Church has
launched a $4,000 rally. Watch us
raise it, The U. and /. Club en-
tertained last Thursday evening as
the home OF Mr.. j. Norwood on Pecan
street. Floyd Ray, who is charged
with an attempt of criminal assault
on 13 year-old white girl was SEN
fenced to hang here last week in
the District court. Young Ray is
now about the age he should be
finishing a High School course, but
instead he criminal of the worst
kind and sentenced to hang We do
not know the boy, but we feel that
his lamentable predicament, and his
ultimate fate is chargable to his
parents Women who are not capa-
BILE of rearing children properly, to
my mind, would commit no sin to
go through life without them. And
too, / think that civic clubs among
our women should see to it that
every boy OF scholastic age should
either go to school OF to the re-
formatory. No boy that is brought up
without education, and without
knowledge of church and Sunday
School, could be expected to be other
than "Criminalistic." Now let's cease
to be Abraham's, furnishing human
sacrifices for the burnt offerings of
the other fellow. The Christians and
the better element of our race, shares
equal responsibility for crimes COM
mitted in their immediate vicinity
when they offer nothing as cor
receive to the criminal before he
commits his crime.
Prof. C. G. Trimble, who has been
spending a three weeks vacation
here at his home, will leave February
9th for Louisville, KY, where he has
his Office and headquarters as Ma
tional Supervisor of the American
Woodmen. All Wichita joins me in
saying Prof. Trimble, we were glad
to have you come; regret to see you
leave and hope for your early return.
Last Friday night in the basement of
st. John Baptist Church. the Brave
boys of Trimble X. of p. Lodge No.
272, entertained the social elects Of
Wichita Falls with a public install
lation and banquet. The generous
and hospitable spirit which character
lied the brave boys Of Trimble Lodge,
in their public functions, is too we'll
known to warrant comment But it
would be an injustice to society to
not mention this festivity. We begin
by saying that Knigkh Walter Pointer
was chairman of the Committee on
Arrangements, and it is needless to
say that he discharged his duties.
For when one entered the door ones
optics were caught by the artistic
arrangement of the tables; and the
profusion of national and fraternal
buntings which were artistically
draped around the windows, and
around the walls, and on the tables.
Then when one approached nearer
the tables, ones olfactory nerves
were excited when one inhaled the
fragrance of beautiful ferns, palms
and cut flowers; and Oh MY just
the sight of those delicious comes
tibles set the inner-man awry. The
feature of the evening was an address
by Prof. G. C. Trimble for whom
this lodge was named. Prof. Trimble
told in glowing terms and command
ing eloquence the history of Damon
and Pythias." Some of the old vet
eran Knights looked on with amaze
! and wonderment, when Prof Trimble
unearthed many hidden facts rel
alive to Pythianism. Messrs Lawler
Smith and A. Byrd, Rev. Mcpherson
and DR.. ]. T WEIGH, also made brief
remarks. Since in the course of
human events 1t is always possible
and equally probable that any speech
of a public speaker may be his last,
we herewith chronicle the last words
of Prof. Trimble said to Trimble
X. of p. Lodge and the citizens of
Wichita. (That Is If he should never
return) Chancellor Commanded, Sir
Knights, Ladies and Gentlemen: 1
must now close, should it be mine
to pass from this way ERE l see you
again, and should you journey to the
spot in some city of the dead which
marks the final resting place of your
friend and brother, G.. C. Trimble,
and should you through curiosity or
fraternal care, or Christian love ex-
hume my body, and cut out my heart
you will find STAN ed indelibly upon
it these words: II Died for My Race"
for / love you--God knows / love
you'll thank you.
