was eating my fish and drinking
my beer, with the rest of Amt
-Tagrqr's Chillun gathered from
folks of the creek, and not at
4racted by any of the ordinary
goings-on my eyes fell on the
latest copy of the magazine called
COLOR, printed and published by
some smart brothers and sisters
o-the-t tribe, up in West Virginia,
end which deals with what we do,
what we don't do, and what hap
pens to US, strictly as members
o-the-tribe. Thumbing through
the pages l ruined across this
hyar headline;. MAGAZINE Elk
POSES RACKETEERS IN RE-
LIGION, which made me think
about what | been tellin you-alls
in this here column for the past
two or three weeks. In a
lard-boiled attack upon what is
the most shameful of racketeers,
COLOR says that every year mil
lions of hard earned dollars,
mostly from the tribe-o-Haggar)
re being swindled from private
tizens, and the work of respect
Il church groups handicapped by
,uel, scheming racketeers who
asquerade as GODS men and
omen. With startling frankness
COLOR advocates (and so do u.s.
probe into the FALSE CHURCH
FRONTS, PRIESTS and NUNS
who are out to MAKE A FAST
UCK," and says hiding behind
lse church fronts, priest and
nun robes, these vicious characters
are daily preying upon the re-
iigious emotions and fears of the
unsuspecting, innocent, and igno-
rant. Busily taking the name of
the Lord in vain," the worst of
riminals pose as heads of "re-
ligious" organizations and chart
ties, pose as DIVINE HEAL
ERS", as NUNS, as PRIESTS, as
EVANGELISTS, and as PROPH-
ETS. What | got my kick out
of was what the book said about
lne of them DIVINE HEAL
Frs" who called everybody from
miles around at dollar head
to see him RAISE A BROTHER
FROM THE DEAD. They dis
covered that the subject was live,
and the coffin didn't have no bot
tom in it and the folks got
fter the DIVINE HEALER"
and from what the book said,
after they got through with him
he must be runnin yet All |
got to say alta you read dis is
IF YOU ACT A FOOL and
go give any of your money to any
kinda "DIVINE HEALER"
Don't say me and Color didn't
warn you
FREE DANCE To all you
Jackson College graduates, as well
as them that intended to but
didn't, within the sound of this
voice, the Jackson College Club is
giving a free dance as part of
the HOMECOMING CELEBRA-
TION after the football game at
Alumni Stadium between Jackson
College and Alabama A & M,
Saturday night, and what's more,
Lottie Williams says she'll have
plenty of tickets on hand at
acknowledgements, if you find
her . so you won't have to fork
up that auckland a-half at the
gate.
THEY SURPRISED EVERY
BODY Good looking Lenora
Edwards out at Lulabelle's Beauty
Shoppe, and Winston Thompson,
a swell young guy, according to a
whole lotta folks, decided that they
wanna be together always and
went to the preacher and now
they're happy as can be in being
Mr.. and Mrs. Winston Thompson.
Congrats and best wishes from
me and everybody kids.
