NEGRO CANDIDATES SOUTH'S DEMOCRACY TO MAKE THE RACE AGAIN TO THE FRONT FOR CONGRESSMEN IN OLD MISSOURI
VOL. 1 NO. 39.
Philadelphia, Pa. — Incidental to the meeting in Philadelphia of the National Federation of Colored Organizations and Interests of America, the members were called upon to support a colored man as a candidate for congress against Congressman William S. Vare, as well as colored men for congress in cities like New York, Chicago and Baltimore, where there are large colored populations. The members were urged to ask for a member of the legislature in every Northern state and to run full tickets throughout the South.
The purpose of the meeting was announced as "to lay plans for better representatives of the colored race in state affairs." Dr. R. R. Wrightm, president of the Colored Protective Association of Philadelphia, in announcing the meeting, said—"I believe the best way to make good, law-abiding citizens out of any people is to give them lively and intelligent interest in public affairs, believe we have colored men to the legislature from the Seventh Ward and the 30th Ward, where the large colored populations are. This is not a new thing, for Harry W. Bass, a colored lawyer, represented the house of representatives at the Harrisonburg from 1911 to 1915.
NEGRO LABORERS
CONTINUE TO LEAVE
THE LAND OF DIXIE
Tuskegee, Ala.—The migration of the Negro from the South is continuing as the demand for Negro labor in Northern cities increases, Eugene Kinkle Jones, executive secretary of the National Urban League, said in an address before the Tuskegee conference.
The war carried Negro labor into foundries, factories, mines, docks and freight yards, where it worked. The Negro community said. Negro women had found employment in growing numbers as factory hands, milliners, clerks, wrappers, and checkers in stores, he added, and the demand for Negro labor is growing in every part of the country.

St. Louis, Mo.—Owners of property on Enright Avenue, between Sarah and Taylor, met at the home of R. S. R.楚kohlbok, 4162 Enright Avenue, and organized the Delmar-Enright Protective and Improvement Association, the chief avowed purpose of which is to prevent Negroes from acquiring homes on Enright Avenue and neighboring streets now occupied exclusively by whites.
The movement to organize followed the publication of a news story telling of the sale of the First United Presbyterian Church, at Newstead and Enright, to a Negro congregation and the consequent sale of homes by persons living on the street.
Raushkohl, who was elected president of the association, said after the meeting: "We have decided that the Negroes shall not pass. We want them to stay in our neighborhood and they have got to stay out. Forty-two people who own homes in these four blocks agreed here that they do not propose to be driven out by a black invasion."
The people of our group here are the frightened people plenty of chance to cool down. They will pass, they say.
RACE UNION MEN
NOT TO BE BARRED
IN GOLDEN STATE
San Francisco, Cal.-Negro stevedores will not be barred from employment on the water front. This was the decision reached at a meeting of the members of the Waterfront Employers' Union in the offices of the Matson Navigating Company.
"We realize we are under a moral obligation to the men who assisted us in meeting the emergency created by the strike of union stevedores, and the members of our association are pledged to employ Negroes on all piers controlled by them in the same proportion as they were," James Tyson of the Matson Navigating Company, one of the largest employing associations on the water front, told members of the employers' union.
"Without the assistance of those men who handled our cargoes during the recent strike the laws of lawlessness and violence, would have crippled the authorities, would have crippled our industries." Tyson said.

MORE EVIDENCE OF FRENCH HIGH ESTEEM FOR BLACK TROOPS
MORE EVIDENCE OF FRENCH HIGH ESTEEM FOR BLACK TROOPS
Sioux City, Ia.—Emphasizing the high regard with which the colored troops of America were regarded by the French government and French people, Mrs Mary B. Talbert of Buffalo, N.Y., president of the National Federation of Colored Women's relief worker sent to France by the American government, stated that "The colored women are far ahead of the men by their organization for betterment of the welfare relief worker, citing as an instance of this that she, a woman, was the only one representing the colored race at the peace conference.
"In one locality of France the civil population had the opinion when the Negro troops first arrived in the town the thieves and criminals of the worst sort. Sometimes after the troops had been stationed in that town the municipal government gave the boys a banquet. The town made an address in which he told of rumors of the Negroes prior to their coming, and then added that "of the thousands of troops of all nations stationed in the vicinity you have been the most orderly and law-

"One night I got word that a great number of Negro troops that mounted and I injured to locality, thinking perhaps I might be of some help in getting the matter settled. When I arrived at the designated place, I found that they had disobeyed an order to exhume a number of bodies and rebury the bodies in a cemetery.
"On talking with the boys I found they had refused because of superstition. I told them it was their duty and the work was for the sake of humanity. Being one of the men I had seen since their arrival in France, my word went a long way. They at once commenced operations and by faithful work exhumed and reburied 26,000 mutilated bodies of soldiers, and in the fear of God and live above all the mean things said we will never have our reputations hurt because we are Negroes."

After 13% years service for the United States government as letter carrier in the local postoffice, serving almost continuously on route N. 1, which includes some of the leading cities in the country. Thus he has resigned his position, the resignation to take effect February 21, 1920. Mr. Ford leaves the postoffice to enter the law office of the United Railway administration at Houston as mail clerk, a position formerly filled by the late William T. Thurston. Thus the decision of Ucman Slam's men has decided that there are better and more lucrative positions than that offered by your uncle, and chances for promotion better still.
The Informer congratulates the young man, and wishes him unbounded progress.

Houstonians are expressing themselves as being highly pleased with the new community service system which went into operation last Monday. The system is especially adaptable to the needs of the community, gives the best opportunity to those who are willing to meet certain reasonable qualifications. A ladies rest room has been opened and is attached to the office. The city not only are the gentle rules being more rigidly enforced, but special attention is being paid to neediness in the community Service, which has taken the place of War Camp (camp community Service), which is working with the colored advisory council. The executive committee, which is working with the colored advisory council, is retained, and special work will be carried on in neighborhood organizations, including pageants, community singing and athletics.

RACE WOMAN WINS CONGREGATIONAL A LEGAL VICTORY FIELD SECRETARY IN CRIMINAL CASE PRAISES THE NEGRO
Waltham, Mass.—The World Outlook Club of the Congregational Church, listened to an address on Americanism by Ida Vose Woodbury, who is field secretary of the American Missionary Society. She is connected with the home missions of the Congregational Church which work among the Mountain whites of the South, the Negroes, the Mexicans and the Alaskans. Mrs. Woodbury spoke principally of her work among the Negroes.
Mrs. Woodbury is very enthusiastic about the future of the Negro. She says that the Negro is intelligent and ambitious when given a chance, but that the opposition to his progress in the South is bitter. Paradoxically, the success of America and American traditions. She spoke of the great work of our Negro troops in France. She said the trouble that has occurred in the South upon the return of the Negroes does not like to see them progress. She said that the Negro in the army learned that he is as good as the rest when his chances are equal, and that he is going to demand that they be freed. He said that the Negro flag, made by a Negro girl in Alabama in 1897, in a small country town, where there was no flag to be found, on the inspiration of which several young Negroes entered the Spanish colonies. She sized the fact that the Negroes wish to become good citizens, if given the opportunity.

PETER AND CORNELIUS.
LESSON TEXT—Acts 13
Ace 13
all rush into all that call upon him—
Ram. 16.13
ADDITIONAL MATERIAL—Acts 13
PRIMARY TOPIC-God's Love for Everybody.
**JUNIOR TOPIC-Peter Winn a Roman Topic and BENEDICT TOPIC**
**The Overcoming of the FAMILY and FAMILY Topic**
**Significance of the Conversion of Corinthus.**
The conversion of Corinthus broke between the Jews and Gentiles (Eph. 2:4).
1. **Cornelius** (vv. 1, 2).
1. His official position (v. 1). He is a member of a company over a company of 100 soldiers, perhaps of about the same rank as a captain in the American army.
1. He plays character (v. 2). (1) A devout, pious man. His heart was filled with godly fear. (2) He was a prayner. (3) He was a priest of prayer. (3) He was charitable; he gave much alms. (4) He was respected by his family.
1. CorneliusCorinthus for the transition of the Gospel to the Gentiles because of his character and position. No Jew could find any faith in a good man, but not a saved man.
1. **H. The Supernatural Preparation for the Transition of the Gospel to the Gentiles.**
1. Two visions were given. (1) The vision of Cornelius (v. 38). While engaged in prayer to Joppa for Peter, who would tell him what to do. The angel told him that Peter was invited to Joppa for Peter, who would tell him what to do. The angel told him that Peter was invited to Joppa for Peter, who would tell him what to do. The angel told him that Peter was not the strictest Jew. The calling of a tunner was regarded as unclean by the angel. Cornelius that Peter was not the strictest Jew. Cornelius that Peter was at once for Peter. He was living up to the best light he had, so he received vision from God, let him pray for it, and took the command: "9-10). This took place while Peter was praying (v. 9). If one would receive vision from God, let him pray for it, and took the command: "Rise, Peter; kill, and eat." Peter protested that he had never any unclean thing, and he cleaned, call not thou common." This vowed let down from heaven and taken back indicated that both Jew and Gentile cleaned, call not thou common." This vowed let down from heaven and taken back indicated that both Jew and Gentile cleaned, call not thou common."
2. Messages from Cornelius (vv. 17, 22). Peter was greatly perplexed and long; for messages from Cornelius made inquiry at the gate for him. The spirit informed Peter of the matter and made him give up Cornelius long; for messages from Cornelius and Peter (vv. 23, 33). (1) Peter took six witnesses along (vv. 23). He had the good judgment to take the importance he must have witnesses. This was proved at the Jerusalem council in the consideration of the question of the reception of the letters from Cornelius, to importate he must have witnesses. (2) Cornelius waiting for Peter (vv. 24). He called together his kinsmen to hear friend Cornelius about to receive Peter (vv. 25, 28). Peter repudiated this act and protested that he was but a man. The true man of God not only dislikes him (4). The epitrophied explanation (vv. 27, 33). Peter explained to him how God had taken from him his Jewish prophecies and the purpose of his having sent for him. Cornelius explained how God had appeared unto him and instructed him
1. The introduction (vv. 34, 35).
He showed that God is no respecter of persons but that in every nation those who fear God and work righteousness and the Lord. 2. The discourse (vv. 30-43). In the discourse he touches briefly upon the mission of Jesus, showing that by means of his baptism and anointing he will be saved. 3. He fed for his as医师. He then exhibited the work of Christ (1) in his life (vv. 30-32) (1) in His death (vv. 30-31) (3) in His resurrection (vv. 40, 41). IV. The Holy Spirit Poured Out (vv. 44-48). As the Gospel was entering upon its widest embrace the Spirit came in new power,
Power of Faith
Christianity has its best expenence in the lives of the saints. It is only natural that the blood that they become vital and organic. Faith if not transmuted into character has lost its power—c. L. Timpanow.
So man is Ursus. No man is we love, we serve; so long as we are loved by others we are in insensible; no man is useless while he has a friend—Robert Louis Steven.

LUCRATIVE YEAR FOR
LIGHTWEIGHT BOXER
Shekels Poured Into Coffers of Champion During 1919.
In eight of Leonard's principal
bouts the gates totaled $30,500, an
average of $25,1750 per bout. The
remaining bouts drew $28,500, an
average of $17,500. His biggest draw-
ing card was his bout with Wille
Ritchie at Newark, which drew a $33,
200 house. His battle with Parsy Cline
came second with $37,000, and his next
best was his go with Johnny Bundee
at Newark which drew $21,000.
The fact that Leonard was able to average one hour almost every two weeks is all the more remarkable. Leonard and his friend did little boxing during the summer months. All through July and most of August he was then. He then took a break and had featured his schedule during the spring and early summer months. As fast as matches could be made for him, Leonard had the ring against any opponent the promoters might select for him. He recently concluded his year's work in the ring with a short period of training over the South.

CARPENTIER'S VICTORY
NO FLUKE, SAYS KLAUS
Frank Kinus, former middle-weight champion of the world, who holds a victory over George Clemens, commenting on the Frenchman's chance in a bounce with Champion Jack Dempsey, said: "Carpenter's victory was not a fluke. Make no mistake about that: he is a great fighter. While I don't think he can best Dempsey I do think Carpenter can give Jack the toughest a gueunthe he ever had in all his life."

A GREAT DAY FOR HOUSTON COLLEGE ATTENTION EVERYBODY!
Sunday the 15th day of February, 1920, will be an awakening day for Houston College in one great meeting in the City Auditorium at 3 o'clock p. m. to give the public mind a better insight into the life and worth of the Institution. The pastors of all the churches, the leaders of all the public enterprises, and the papers of the city have pledged their co-operation to make this an epocalyptic day in the history of the school.
THE SLOGAN OF THE DAY IS $1500
for immediate improvements for the accommodation of the increased number of students now on hand and others coming, for which we have no room. We count ourselves fortunate in having secured
DR. E. ARLINGTON WILSON, PH. B., D.D.
of Dallas, Texas, to be the speaker of the day. Dr. Wilson is a ripe scholar, a pulpit orator, a platform speaker and debater. Richin thought, forceful in expression, pleasing in manners, he easily captivates his audience and sways them at will. His subject will be "Our Faces to the Future." To hear him once is to hear him again; to miss hearing him is to miss a grand treat.
Splendid music will be rendered by the students of Houston College; solos, quartets, and choruses. Also the Shiloh Choral Club of the city will render charming selections.
Remember the date, the time and the place—Sunday, the 15th, 3 o'clock p. m., at the City Auditorium. Come early and bring your friends.
We call upon you ministers; we call upon you teachers; we call upon you leading men of thought a motive powers to help to fill this auditorium to overflowing to help a worthy cause. Our motto is "Over the Ton."

OVER-CONSUMPTION AND UNDER-PRODUC TION.
We are hearing much these days about the high cost of living and little about of high cost of living, but had you ever stopped to think about the cost of living for the former and apining after others more substantially situated than ourselves is largely responsible for the latter? In recent years the drift of the American population has been cityward; the farms have been forsaken and the rural districts de-
Brown Chapel A. M. E.
REV. P. D. SADLER, Pastor.
Consequently, production has fallen off, while consumption has increased in an alarming manner. People must eat or else perish and when the demand exceeds the supply, the consumer is the goat and as usual, foots the bill.
**Announcements:** Sunday, February 15, Sunday school, 9:30 to 10:45, preschool, 11 a.m. a. teacher service room, 11 a.m. to 11:30, 7:30 p. m. official board; Tuesday, 7:30, teachers training class; Wednesday, 7:30, teachers training class; Friday, 7 p. m. chair rehearsal.
Complaining, boycotties and investigations will not remedy the situation. We must produce more and it is possible, in many instances, for us to eat less—not to starve the body, but give it the nourishing food and cut out these high-brow dishes and menus.
Our American civilization (sad to relate) looks with disgust upon the farm and instead of a hegia being made back to mother earth, the exodus is to urban life with a bare eking out of an exodus of children with a matched hands, beckons us there, where long life and riches abound.

Dr. Billinspry writes that physicians and the medical authority should sound a warning against the use of hair dye in the treatment of skin conditions. The loss of hair may be divided into three classes: Physical weakness, dandruff. If the loss of hair is due to physical weakness or dandruff this may be cured, but if the loss of hair is due to hair loss from a chemical dye, the scalp and hair roots of natural oil which nature provided. Dr. Billinspry describes the growth of long, straight skin-like hair as a mature mummy kind, but it can be regrown. AOP-LINE

You Never Can Tell
BY JESSIE DOUGLAS
© 1975, by Michael Newspaper Brands.
Little Miss Angel looked smothered behind her pile of exercise books. The front of her hair was quite white where she had brushed against the chalky board, and her middle finger when you looked very hard at Miss Angel you saw she might have been pretty, if the shyness of her eyes had not concealed their sweetness and the softness of her skin to its softness and the wistful look about her mouth had not forbidden you to look at its pretty curves. When you had seen all this you-angel would look hard in ten years the softness had changed to sharpness and Miss Angel would have become a "good teacher." Miss Angel wasn't thinking just now of becoming a good teacher; she was starting right through the school room with its prim little desk, right through the wall with its gry eyes into the manse at Broadway where
"I wander if I couldn't help you, but there's some Sunday school work he did. He looked at me very gravely before he said, "Thank you. I have about all the teachers and assistants I can see." Yes I asked sweetly.
"I going to have a sewing class Saturday, morning; perhaps you might just jump at the chance, not that I can see a stitch."
Mary Angel sitting at the matrine braceletlessly, she loved her hair and her eyes that were dark and daring and gay.
"That's all. Roberts ended, so I am going to him. It very simple. I make a delicious minister's wife, something in that line. Hark, there's the dressed bell! See you later. she might up her hat and claw her finger. She clawed over the polished floors. And that was the beginning of it. The last bell had rung, the lights were on, the flame was on the clay gloom that poured through Miss Angel's keyhole. Miss Angel was still working over a problem in arithmetic. She never even heard
"Working? Oh. Angel, you'll lose your beauty suit!" Robert lamented at a funny little thought of her own. "I'm in an awful mood. You know the mugging-to-marry?" Mary Angel nodded and for some reason she flushed all over her hair. "I'm going to be walking with the children in the afternoons." "Somewhat that man is very hard to wear. Robert went on, in spite of seeing every Saturday and twice a week. I've gone to the mission in the afternoon; but he's very hardward. Now I come to the aidful part. He saw me could. Saturday and twice I could. I promised to play for him tomorrow—the only way to do it. Mr. Paze will never find it out, for you are to wear your clothes and hold your face; when you are through, smoket out the factory door." Don't forget, the vectory door."
"You've got to; besides that home Joe is coming up from home toorrow just to see me. Little Miss Angel "me to be caught in the organ loft by young assistant of the mission. I wanted to thank you, Miss Hardy, for helping me with the dress, for instead of Roberta's self assurance and during black eyes, she found a girl with wide, dreaming eyes of gray set against her face. Though she had been caught in the wickened of crimes by the blush that went creeping to her temples. "Why you, the girl you I've wanted—up to my early afternoon up by the old highway." "I'm not a girl, I'm a teacher," Miss Angel gravely. "I was afraid it was that Roberta and said that the very death buried behind those eyes of the young St. Anthony. "Would the teacher play for me?" he asked very gently.
Because she was very shy, Mary Angell turned back to the organ and began to play; it was so much easier than talking to this disconcerting girl; she was so quiet, few minutes, she forgot all about him, about everything in the world except her music and the things her music was saying, and she was very dark in the organ left; the young assistant said, "Thank you," and helped her down from the high bench, and they stumbled together down the steps into the dimness of the mission room. Mary Angell said, "Come with you," she said very firmly, "to its too dark for you to be out alone." It seated a strange thrill through Mary Angell to be waiting beside this girl, and she found herself, though she knew; for she had never known any men in her secluded day, from her school days to her teaching days.
"You can't as if you don't know you," Mary Angell was saying. "I've seen you every afternoon for a month, and I made up my mind!" he stopped.
Mary Angell wanted to know very much what he had made up his mind
"Look; do you like it?" Robert held out a pin, flushed with pearls. "Of course I wouldn't accept it unless we in a pin, flushed with pearls." "Engulfed?" breathed Mary Angel, and her face was suddenly white, while she it looked that it looked as though she would fail. "Of course, you silly!" You never can tell of course, you will marry." Little Angel angel found herself sitting on Little Angel's bed, crying as bitterly as though her heart would break. "Angel lifted a face a radiant in spite of tears, threw her arms about her neck and crieed. "I never was so happy!" and ran out of the room. "There are all sweetness, her hair blow her face at this thistlehead and her mouth showed its pretictures, as she breathes climbed the stairs to her own room, saying "And itself, 'I am just one week'."
"Hell! Not on the church program for a nirration. She was to hold an envelope containing a penny in her hand and tell what the money was going to do. She got stalled all right, and she held the envelope and continued: "There's penny in it. It, of course, no penny in it. Then the little miss stopped and fished out the penny and no amount of urging on the pocket until she could find the envelope. The audience rerouted and the incident was the hit of the evening.
Mathematical Mendacity.
"Figures won't lie," renamed the statistician.
"No!" answered the cheap sleeper.
"No!" answered the two-dollar bills with aipher pasted after the 'two' so as to make them look like twenties."
Gone Forever.
"Gene are the happy days for the employer."
"What do you mean?"
"mme those mme" and days when a girl could afford to get mad and help the girl in a white."

The main thing an advertiser wants to do is to tell you plainly just how and why his goods are worthy of your consideration. You can learn a great deal from that about these things you see advertised as the things you buy and use in your regular daily life. By reading the advertisements, you can learn the names and read descriptions of the things that are best and most satisfactory.
But advertising teachers more than that. All advertisers try to make their advertisements themselves valuable to you.
A good many people have learned a whole lot about good music, good books, good food, good clothes, ways to keep healthy, ways to live comfortably, ways to keep the house and grounds looking well—they've learned all these things and many other things just by reading advertisements.
Read the advertisements right along, and you will learn a great deal that will be helpful and valuable to you as you go through life.

Assistant Dean, Worst Bible
Institute, Chicago
TEXT—Blessed is the man that walketh
not in the counsel of the ungodly,
nor standeth in the sight of sinners, nor sit-
teth in the shall of the wicked, nor delight
in the law of the Lord; and in
his law do he meditate day and night.
And he shall be blessed by the
rivers of water, that bringeth forth
not wither; and when he leasheth also
proper—Px 11-3.
Literally, the Psalmist said, "Oh!
the happiness of the man"
Order to attain
happiness he sets forth,
certain things
must be done,
the counsel of
the ungodly, the way
of sinners, the
sense of the scornful.
It will be observed there is a graduation here. A man gives a gift to give heed to the advice of those who rebel in princes—for such are the "ungody." Then he may be embodied to allow the crooked path of the man to be unbounded, and whose acts are wrong as well as their principles—for such are "sinner." Finally, he may settle down to meet the man unbounded, those who do not do so, and so do at all goodness and good men—for such are the "scorners." John Wesley's Hundred Men.
Said John Wesley: "Give me a hundred, and nothing but god and hate nothing but god and shake England." God gave him a hundred such men and England—and the whole world, indeed—was shaken. That fact of the Lord hated hate even the garment spotted by the flesh is the first requisite to the happiness of which the Psalmist speaks. An active aspect of the matter, the writer of the Psalm now goes on to the positive: "This delight is in the law of the Lord; and his law doth he meditate day and night."
"The law of the Lord" refers to the Scriptures generally. For example, John 10.34 and 15.25 show us that the law only applies to those only designated, the "law of the law." One well said will: "This delight in the Word of God is alone mentioned, because it comprises everything; the law mandates and all that he promises; the preservation against sin and temptation in every form, as the Psalmist elsewhere says—'Thy word have I hid in thy mouth' and 'the sure guide in all difficulties and dangers, as he says again—Thy law is a hump unto my feet and a light unto my path'; as once through faith which is in Christ Jesus; and 'profitable for doctrine, for correction, for correction, for instruction in righteousness; that the man of God is made good all other good works' (1 Tim. 3.15-17).
Note also that the happy man not only delights in the law of the Lord, but "in his law dawn he nodiate day and night." His interest in the Word of God is not a matter of stated times but of the present day by and when waking in the night he reverts to it with pleasure and rumbles upon it. He not only "reads, learns and learns" it, but "involves himself in the light." Certain blessed results are now noted in the case of the man who, on the one hand, avoids sin, on the other, enjoys the light. He is like a tree bearing fruit in season, for in every situation and relation of life he adorns the doctrine of God his Savior in all things. The tree is the water, the waters, shows he is under the special care of the heavenly Husbandman; it refers to the practice in the East of watering the trees in a garden by the river, in the waters, the rowers from a reservoir or well sunk in the midst." The leaf of such a plant of the Lord is not other and shall not be the word, the words may be read, "shall come to perfection." The buds of a righteous life come to maturity. The righteous are not disappointed. What a contrast to
The secret of it all is given in the closing verse of the Psalm: "The Lord known the way of the righteous." He looks on them approvingly, and
A Mood.
There is a transcendent mood of the spirit where the nearest flower that awakens blowers too deep for years, when the grass blades are circular and the leaves are curled in the God, and when the splendors of day repeat the flash of jasper and beryl. It is when the soul is keenly onions of relations to system supports, when the soul is a spirit, by whom all things are interfused—Ralston Salters Inferior.
