Last Wednesday morning while returning from a visit to Third Ward The Houston Informer man stopped by the blacksmith shop of Mr. E. R. Moore, and asked the sturdy wizard of the sledge if he had seen the article in a recent issue of one of our local papers, and if he had any statement to make. He said "I will make this statement, from a principle standpoint; a separation is at all times to be regretted, but after enduring so many unspeakable things, and finding that it was inevitable, and having reached the point where patience was exhausted, hardened and stood ready and willing to greet it when it came."

Democracy in New York City Public Schools
"Where Do We Come In?"
BY WILLIAM PICKENS.
It is not perfect; because there are some grown-ups among them; there are the teachers; and the teachers represent a spolied generation, while the children represent nature and God.
So these children of many races are almost emo- tional and fight, laugh, and laugh, quarrel, love and hate, irrespective of race and color.
I looked upon their exercises and into their eyes at the "commencement" of school, 119 in Harlem, the school in Harlem. In school children predominate in number, as colored folk predominate in Harlem. But there was no arrogance; the colored children did not seem to be trying to dri- tion them from games or hon- ors or seats or companionship.
There were all colors: White, yellow, brown and browner; golden and more golden; dark and darker still; and on up to them from games or hon- ors or seats or companionship.
And although the teachers are practically all white, it hap-
(By Associated Negro Press.)
Sometime ago the Associated Negro Press announced that the big slogan for political 1920 is "Where do we come in?" That slogan is yet in force, and the question has by no means been satisfactorily answered, according to the most reliable information it is possible to get.
The republican and democratic national conventions are supposed to have answered the question, there are several million colored people throughout the country, who are displeased with the answer and hundreds of these are asking the Associated Negro Press to give their opinions expression.
In keeping with the policy of "above board frankness" it is regarded as a duty to make public, and call special attention to this condition. Party nominees and party leaders may take the opinions for what they are worth, but there is no question of the paramount significance of the situation. The people are filled with determination, and they are speaking out as never before.
Out of the hundreds of interviews and letters received by the Associated Negro Press, this one from Walter C. Balenger, 2297 Seward Avenue, Detroit, Mich. is typical. (It will be remembered that Detroit now has nearly 50,000 Negroes and they are easily the balance of power in Mich
opened that a perfectly black girl with the eyes of deep evening had the highest honors of the class with 922 points out of a possible 1000 in her studies. She also took a swimming prize.
When the honor students were called out for a formation on the floor, this daughter of the Goddess of Night was of course called first, as (quoting her princedress) the whole constellation." The other honores, white and colored, took their positions in symmetrical rank behind this girl as their center and front. The colored honores slightly predominated.
I must remind older folk the sweet-tempered and democratic bearing of all these girls and their stand behind the dark-brilliant star. There were no frowns nor peevishness; no quarreling with fate nor evident complainings against God. They were just folks-perfect little women among women. Skin colors seemed to be just about as important as the various hair colors. And just to think that these students are going to have this
igan since the migration.) Mr. Balenger says:
We have been following the G. O. P. through thick and thin and we didn't seem to get any more from them than we do from any other party. I think that the child was born on promises. Would it be a bad idea for us to have an understanding before sending thousands and thousands of our race to the polls to vote? Now, would it be a bad idea to port the man who supports us? Let it be the third or fourth party. We have bought our last "plig in the bag," and demand that they play the cards on the table."
The feeling seems to be that the political parties have used the Negro voters as tools, footballs, and political playthings, that in many instances disrespect of the most glaring kind has been demonstrated, and that the time for a real show down is here politically, come what will.
When Robert R. Church, who had been duly elected a delegate to the national republican convention, was ultimately turned down by the credentials committee, he declared with dramatic eloquence on the floor of the conference back to Tennessee." Now, Tennessee is acting, a majority of our voters, and a goodly number of fair-minded whites, are protesting against the action, and are declaring by mass meetings and public resolutions, that unfair tactics must be accounted for. Many of the most influential newspapers are letting their true opinions be known with remarkable frankness and clearness. The Dallas (Tex.) Express is
normal spirit "educated out of them," that they are going to be corrupted by "civilization"—poisoned for life! God made them as they are; they will be held in the university by the arduity of man. Their democratization will begin in the high school, as they turn from play toward the ways of the grown-ups. And it will be carried on through the universities and the colleges until they come out into an natural world as snobs and enemies. They will despise, and sometimes hate, each other, both white and colored. Natural it is the artificial product of such civilization as we have. When these children appear as they came from God and under the human guidance of the ministers of the grammar schools, they are normal. Later they become enmeshed and tangled in a multitude of lies and false human pride. Let us learn from the children. They must not only be "father to the man," but may also become his teacher and humanizer.
typical of this sentiment. The Express is one of the most substantial newspapers in the country, and has always been considered a long editorial in the current issue under the caption: "Growing Discontent," the following is said:
"There may be some who feel discontent with the government satisfactory BUT IT WAS NOT. There are millions of Negro voters who do not hot think and who are not willing again to support the government that it is "going to do something." The 15,000,000 Negroes of America have a just right to inquire: "WHERE DO WE COME IN? All answers up to date are available. The Missouri slogan has become the watchword: "SHOW ME!"

Attache City Health Office Reports Insanitary Conditions To City Health Authorities
As proof conclusive that there was no prejudice or ill-will on the part of the committee of tenants (composed of Attorney L. V. Allen, Dr. H. C. Lewis, C. F. Richardson and S. M. Gaines), who filed a petition with the board of grand curators of the Texas Taborian order last January, complaining against the insanitary, unsightly and unhealthy condition of their building located in Houston—the following is self-explanatory.
After repeated efforts on the part of an attachment of the city health department to get Janitor E. M. Fisher to keep the local building clean; after futile attempts to show Janitor Fisher the urgent public necessity of purchasing a garbage can for filth, peelings, etc., dumped on the floor in the hallways, after this health worker had implored Janitor Fisher to keep the toilets clean, as well as the drinking fountains and when Janitor Fisher refused to obey her instructions, the condition of the Taborian office building was reported to the city health department and an investigation will be made at once.
As a breeding place for rats and the bubonic plague; as an incubator for all kinds of epidemics and plagues; as a retainer of filth, dirt and disease producing vermin, the Taborian building, according to the viewpoint of the attacke of the city health office, is in the worst shape of any office building for colored people in the city of Houston.
Some are wondering the "big boys" and "kaiers" of the Knights and Daughters of Tabor of Texas will say and do now? Their $2,000 per year legal firm of lawyers of another race are certainly earning their money this year of our Lord, while the membership will be taxed more money to meet the "incidental" expenses. Can you beat it?

Grand Opening Night Sunday, July 4.
Stirring Addresses—Thrilling Subjects—Wonderful Truths.
Evangelist M. G. Nunes of Trinidad, British Colony, and his force of Chaucaquia workers will be visitors in our city this summer.
Mr. Nunes will present to the general public educational and spiritual subjects along the lines of Biblical exegesis. Morality, health, involving simple treatments and nurses' demonstration, how to combat the high cost of living by the study of dietics and the science of eating, will be given.
A special feature of the Chaucaquia will be meetings for all ladies, and all gentlemen, and the big four section meeting for married men and married women, single men and single women.
That we are living at a time that commands our very serious attention is beyond measure, and women everywhere are asking "What do the present events mean?"
Subjects like "Seven Women and One Man," "Take Your Head Out of the Devil's Lap," "Smashing Heaven Looking Glass," "Why Does God Not Destroy the Devil?" "The Future His Destruction and the World" are named by Angel Gabriel, with many others, will make plain to honest seekers the meaning of the times in which we live.
The big tabernacle will be kept with taste to suit all particular people. Watch for the date of opening.
Doctor H. D. Greene, well beloved by the public, the manager of the Big Chaucausue.
All welcome. No charges. Seats free.

PRIMARY TOPIC-A Story of Two Friends.
FRIENDS
JUNIOR TOPIC—David and His Friend,
MEDIATEDATE AND SENIOR TOPIC
—Friendships That Are Worth While.
According to oriental custom, the women met David and his soldiers as they were returning, and with singing and dancing they ascribed more praise to David than to Saul. This attested moved him to three attempt to kill David. In his third attempt Jonathan defended David before his father and mother, and moved him to should not be slain (13:6). Thus he exposed himself to the anger of his infuriated father for David. Saul wished he will kill him for life another he proves that his friendship is real. "Great love hath David his life for another he proves that his life is for another" (John 15:13). 111. By Revealing to David Saul's Murderous Intent (1 Sam. 20:30-40). 112. By expecting to be present to David's death he goes to home to attend the yawning sacrifice of the entire family. This annual feast was more important than the monthly
Matters were now so serious that they renewed the covenant between themselves. In its renewal the terms of the covenant were renewed. Jonathan (vv. 14, 15). Saul's anger was now so fierce that for Jonathan to be found in company with David was a dangerous thing, so he cleverly devised a way to avoid being he could know Saul's purpose. We prove our friendship by warning those who are exposed to danger. David's heart responded to Jonathan's love by sending him to Jerusalem with Jonathan and his seed forever. Later history proves that this was faithfully carried out (II Sem. 9, 7, 8).
LESSON FOR JULY 11
JONATHAN BEFRIENDS DAVID.
1. Friendships should be made while the parties are young--while the hearts are capable of being knit together.
2. Friendial are few; therefore be careful in the formation of the tides of friendship. Friends should be selected. We should love everybody, but we can have but few friends.
3. We should have farractions in the temperaments in those who would be friends. Friendships should be formed for the purpose of mutual assistance. Both parties, however, must possess real merit.
4. Both parties must be God-fearing. David and Jonathan both recognized their obligation to the Lord and that they should suffer for both. Without a deep religious life there can be no friendship. There are times when one party must absolutely love in behalf of the other. Gentle interest in the hands of all friendship.
Good impulses.
Good imp好 lives long unless they are put to work.
The Glory of Life.
To do the things that can't be done is the glory of life.
Greatest Losses.
The greatest losses are the losses
we never observe.
Being Rich or Poor.
We are as rich or as poor as our
minds make us.
Character.
Character is a growth from the soil
of purpose.

AMERICAS REIGN OF LYNCH LAW.
When one beholds how American citizens are being lynched, mobbed and burned at the stake in various parts of this country, while the authorities refuse to even attempt to apprehend the guilty culprits, it looks like democracy is a hollow mockery and the constitution of America and the laws of the several states are mere "scars of paper."
The Mystical Body.
Next, Jews and Gentiles are to be "fellow members of the body" (R. V. No Old Testament saint ever knew of the fourth. Christ is now risen, the glorified Head of the Church. Believers are members of his mystical body. As a member of the church from him as he de the branches from the vine. But they are also joined to one another as fellow members of the body in a union such as the world has in the church. We are brought about by the Spirit given at Pentecost: "For by one Spirit are we all bap'd into one body, whether we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be Christians or not, to drink of one Spirit (I O. 12:13). Just as we manifest ourselves through our bodies, so Christ will, even in the church, which is his body.
A few days ago Duluth, Minn., held a lynching bee and three American citizens were robbed of their lives by a lynchocratic manhdrin, of rape.
Then came Wharton, Texas, last week and shot to death two American citizens and hanged two others, bringing her total for the day up to four.
Mississippi came next and lynched a railway postal clerk, simply because he had defended himself against the assault of a white fellow-clerk.
Paris, Texas, which was the first city in America to burn an American citizen to death on the public square several years ago, two American citizens Tuesday night, this time burning two American citizens to death.
With such a lynching org manifest over the country, and especially in the South, the Federal government must take charge of the situation and see to it that all American citizens are given the same protection under the law.
There was a time when they exuded all lynchings on the city, and no one was womanhood the cause; but nowadays no such excuse can be made, for American citizens are the victims of mob law for any kind of an offense.
Finally, Jewes and Gentiles are now "Fellow-partakers of the promise in Christ Jesus through the gospel!" (1 Corinthians 1:18). In the Messiah; here it is made clean we are now blessed in "Christ," in vital union with him. Moreover, the gospel is the promise of such promises made to Abraham as he should possess the gate of his enemies. What the final fulfilment of the promise in the gospel shall mean,
Wherever Judge Lynch bobs up his head against our people, the colored people should leave such communities never to return again. After they had lynched four colored Americans in Wharton, an article appeared in the white newspaper urging the remaining colored people not to be afraid, as the white people would see that no harm belfall any more of them. Smiles! Lynching has become a national pastime and menace, just as we predicted; for where lawessness is tolerated and encouraged in one part of a country, it is quite natural for it to break out in another part of the same country, and hence it ceases to be sec-
No wonder Paul was elated, yet humbled, that the apostolic life of this mystery was committed to him, must have been a difficult one for he talks about "the unsearchable riches of Christ. No wonder he whishes for the wisdom of his loyalty (R. V. dispensation) of the mystery." And, finally, he tells us that the purpose of making known God's wondrous design is to make it possible for new unto the principalities and powers in heavenly places might be made known by the church the manifold ways of its dispensation.
Some hold to the opinion that lynching can be suppressed; that the American people are in hearty accord and sympathy with mob violence and that they regard lynching as a sport, such as bull fighting, baseball, pugilism, et cetera. We know that a large amount of money to hire a small army of inspectors to go into the private homes of American citizens and see how much home-made wine, beer, whisky, etc, are on hand, it does appear to The Informer that this same Congress could appropriate sufficient money to run down and punish a few of the many lynchers, mobocrats and anarchists who are making this country the most hostile and un civilized of all the supposed enemies of the world.
Such a gospel is worth suffering for
and the apostle concludes: "Wherefore
I declare that ye fail not at my
sacrifice, you which, you is your
clause" (x, 13).
What affects more vitally this country: the possession of a bottle of beer or some other intoxicating beverage, or the promiscuous murdering, mobbing and lynching of American citizens with impunity? America has any conscience, it is high time that it becomes awake, for no country can long endure part democratic, part mobocratic and part hellocritie.
We do appreciate with him "the 'mystery?' Do we know the 'unsearched' world? Do we know the 'heart to heart' a story thus related by Bishop Mosey: "May it be with us somewhat as it was, a hundred years ago, we visit, vicar of Heulensby, in Yorkshire Earnest, conscientious, but as yet spiritually illuminated, he told us many things, but always inwardly disappointed. One day, reading his Eble, he lit upon these words, the unsearched richest profound surprise and a strange misgiving; could Christ, who had seemed to him hitherto a Figure in his theology, be a familiar, the Christ of these words; And he did not rest until he had found him indeed in the glory of his salvation and felt life transformed in his light."
HOUSTON'S VAGRANTS MUST GO.
The decision and determination of the city police department to rid Houston of its immense army of vagrants and sons of rest is a step in the right direction.
Vagrancy must cease and with plants desiring help of all kinds, the able-bodied man who will not work should be made to work.
There is an old adage that "an idle brain is the devil's workshop," which is as true now as when first uttered.
Idleness must be condemned wherever found, but all the idlers are not hanging around the City Market.
The people have implanted the pool halls as habitats of the work-dodgers and honest toil-resisters and these places are not all operated on Milam, San Felice and Olin.
The Informer favors a clean-up, policy against Houston's army of idlers and commends the police department for inaugurating the movement.

Has one of the best educational systems in the South for colored children, operating 16 elementary schools and the high school, employing about 150 teachers and super-numeraries. The Houston graduates take front rank in the leading colleges of the country.
Has more churches than any other city its size in America, practically all of the denominations being represented.
Gives all kinds of employment to colored men and women and has one of the greatest colored citizenry to be found anywhere in the world. More colored people own their homes and other land than any other American city.
Has progressively colored physicians, dentists and professional men. Has two colored hospitals, three secular newspapers and two religious publications.
Colored people are engaged in all avenues of business and some have made a very creditible showing.
Two colored fraternities own three large brick buildings in the business area of the city, in a block adjacent to the City Hall.
Has the finest colored motion picture house in the South.
Only city in the South that has a park maintained and supported by the city for the race; it is known as Emancipation Park, located in the residential section of the Third Ward.
One of the few Southern cities operating a home for delinquent girls of the race, as well as one for the boys. Maintains both male and female officers for incorrigible youths.
