COLORED SUPERVISOR
Most Southern cities with large colored populations, and even some Texas cities, have experimented with colored supervisors for colored public schools in the past. They have been judged by the retention of these race supervisors.
Houston school system has more colored schools and teachers than any city in Texas and is exceeded by very few other cities. The opinion that the time is ripe for Houston to appoint some colored educator as supervisor of colored schools.
In a number of cities the principal of the colored high school is supervisor, especially where he does little work. The school system is more executive and administrative work.
With a school system as large and complex as ours, it is hard possible for the white school officials to do justice to the colored schools; not because they are more experienced and maintaining rather than to accord to the colored schools.
A colored supervisor could be of vast assistance to the school board and system in this respect and then be an administrator rather because they do not have the time to accord to the colored schools.
At present our schools are not "hitting on all six" and may be a colored supervisor would serve as the "spark" for the school system and maintaining a high standard among our colored schools.
At present our schools are not "hitting on all six" and may be a colored supervisor would serve as the "spark" for the school system and maintaining a high standard among our colored schools.
The system has grown and expanded beyond the conception of the average person and what was the custom years ago is totally inadequate and insufficient in its design and management.
The informer suggests that our board of education give the matter of education to the students in the schools of the Houston independent school district some serious study and thought; make investigations on the subject; and make sure that he loves Houston will join the other progressive cities of the South in appointing a colored supervisor over the board.
HOW THIS, UNCLE SAM1
There is a downtown sub-postoffice station located in the lobby of a theatre and several colored citizens have been told that the stamps are not being sold at this particular government sub-station to colored people. In the first place, we have never operated the postoffice in the lobby of a movie theatre or, in the next place, we did not know that Uncle Sam tolerated such rank, malicious and unethical behavior in the office department knows anything about this perennis and perfidious practice of this theatrical sub-station. Postmaster Nichols should investigate why a foundation is any foundation to them; for we can not conceive of the idea that a federal postoffice, even though it be called a sub-station, would show clandestine activity in the postage stamps and issuing money orders to citizens and patrons of the government. It such is the policy of the federal postoffice department should do, hand a change in salid policy or locate this sub-station at some other place. Any rate we are going to submit the matter to Postmaster Nichols just now, and knowing him as we do, we are confident that he will prove himself equal to the emergency; a percent of all the people and not a people.
RESIGNS LOCAL CHARGE.
Rev. R. W. Wells, pastor of Waltz Chapel Baptist Church, has tendered the church his resignation and is scheduled for Sunday at 11 a.m. and 8 p.m. The farewell program will begin at 8 p.m. on the church from 3 to 6 p.m. m. Sunday, to which all church congregations will serve as members of the coronaries at the church. Wells is also planning to cross the relations of double-blendness, perhaps during the summer.

The recent meeting in Atlantic City, N.J., on Monday, the day the city is, an indication of the trend of feeling which political observers strongly declare must be taken into account when voting. It does not take into account the unrest, and the lack of coloured voters, is regarded as no strategy at all. The city's hospital situation, with its uncertain fate, and the hold over the city's leadership over the hand of the government, continues to occupy the center of the stage. "On the outcome of this survey the national leader, "will finally be shown the way to the republican party." James Welton Johnson is in the New York Age calls it "the most important."

Tuskegee Institute, Ala.-Dr. Robert R. Moton, president of the National Negro Business League, announced today that the Honorable T. C.

A special feature of the forthcoming meeting will be a "get-together" meeting of the "Let the Women's Leaders" of the League, many of whom were of the two who assembled in Boston twenty-four years ago in answer to the call of Dr. Booker T.

LISTED TO HEAD
U.S.V. HOSPITAL
Civil Service Bureau Said to Have Certified Washington Physician for Position.
HINES ISSUES REPLY
Tells Southerners an All White Personnel Is Not Acceptable to Harding.
Washington, D. C.-Dr. T. Edward Jones, 509 O. Street, northwest, has been the city's Civil Service Bureau for the past 40 years and is at the War Veteran's Hospital at Tuskegee.
This is an unofficial report current business in Chicago. Cory Browne's statement that Dr. Fred D. Whitney is to be neurologist, Dr. H. Burwell Brooke is to be tuberculosis expert. All of Dr. Jones is said to have been put at the top of the list of the Critic, Dr. ekhney, the only other applicant to the cause of his excellent service over the years.
Asked what he would do if ordered to report for service at the Tuskegee Hospital, Dr. Nigel Nephrology have been made, Dr. Robert Nephrology have been ordered to report, I would report.
Hines Issues Statement.
In a statement issued today, Director James of the Veterans Bureau, turned over the documents to an all-white personnel. He also declared that he was not intimidated by the Ku Klux Klan as charged in the case. When in Tukuece recently Gen. Hines asked what the white residents of the city were doing to burrow the plan. Gen. Hines stated today, was for white control of the hospital throughout as was the hospital throughout as was the hospital throughout.
60 Per Cent Colored.
Sixty per cent of the hospital personnel at present is colored and there are many patients receiving treatment. G. Hines said. The nurses, attendants and inpatient nurses are white. The physicians are white. G. Hines added that the bureau found a problem with the doctors for the ward surgeons. "We have not satisfied ourselves as to the need for the doctors and of course we are not going to put anybody in there we do not consider providing care for the ward. The best treatment, but the Negroes want the responsibility of caring for the purpose of the policy of the bureau and what President Harding wanted the purpose of the policy of the bureau." Director Hines' attitude indicated the shift from white to colored physician. The prospects are that the whites on the blacks will be satisfied with the burrow's solution of the problem, as the Negroes declare they are caring for their sick and injured without either a white commander or whites are banking on the hospital when the sick was built it would have white control. Colored people were in recent letters stated that the hospital must have all-colored patients.

DISABLED·VETERANS ARRIVING AT TUSKEGEE U.S.V. HOSPITAL: SITUATION STILL PRECARIOUS
(By the Associated Negro Press.)
Montgomery, Ala.—Someone the Tuskegee Institute hospital pro Press, for the most part, co-organized the event, and there has been reverently placed the spot where Jefferson Davis was of the confederate states. That was the reason for the power of the Ku Klux Klan in the United States government, it.
Montgomery, Ala.—Someone has inquired why the stories of the Tuskegee Institute hospital difficulties for the Associated Negro Press, for the most part, come from this ancient city of succession fame where, on the steps of the illustrious Capitol building there has been reverently planted a gold star commemorating the spot where Jefferson Davis stood to be inaugurated president of the confederate states. That is a good question.
Tuskegee Institute is isolated today and yet by the invisible power of the Ku Klux Klan in its thus far successful defiance of the United States government, it is very much in the public eye.
Tuskegee Institute, for the present, in the disbursing office, appealed to has abandoned the use of telegrams.

The proposal of President Harding to director Hines, in a Washington in-situ, to be made for the first time, to the terms of the terms of the political and director Hines to be remain silent on conditions about the most ordinary people of the town here. He may as well ask the tidings of Tuskegee as well as the officials of the ocean to stop. The colored and ordinary white employees about the searchlight of publicity on this sorry situation are aware of the contents of every private telephone call aid telegram sent.
Patients Are Arriving.
At the time of this writing, 90 colored patients have arrived at the hospital, and 10 have been admitted to control of 10 white doctors and 16 colored nurses. Colonel Stanley conducted the charges. Colonel Stanley conducted the charges. Charges have been openly made that Col.

Women Compared With Celebs.
Women are like celebrities, women with little attention, while others need almost constant care, and it is important that those that are most dependable. They may have pretty hands, but they are likely to be out of order, and when they do they are all very hard to regulate. Oregon

"Dimplemie" in Golf Balls.
There is plenty in golf balls in order to make golf balls fly straight. Practically nothing can fly well for any considerable distance without a tail. The various marigolds on golf balls are the results of experiments with different materials and set up friction that most perfectly takes the place of a tail.
Darwinism.
Darwinism is the doctrine that later species or forms of animals and plants evolve by means of natural selection, by one process of natural selection, and by another process of natural selection. It was advocated by Charles Darwin (1800-1888), especially in his "Origin of Species" and "The Decent Genius."

HOUSTON, TEXAS, SATURDAY, JULY 28, 1923.
THE HOUSTON COLLEGE SITUATION.
THE HOUSTON COLLEGE SITUATION.
There has been quite a bit of discussion regarding the act of the educational board of the Baptist Missionary and Educ. Convention of Texas in virtually discharging Professor I. M.ell from the presidency of Houston to Colder, peremptorily.
Whatever prompted the board to tender the post to Dr. J. Lee, nationally known educator, and fail to re-elect Professor I. M.ell is the board's business; but there is a certain amount of lideration due every man and thus these Baptist leaders' record this common courtesy to Professor Terrell.
There is no student that the fact that Professor Terrell did me getting to college on the map, locally, than any and the predecessors; while the financial support accorded the school white citizens, through Professor Terrell's acti reached the highest mark in the history of the college.
The Informer recognizes the fact that a school needs some wide money, but when a man spends the most of his time in if finance to keep any institution alive or the cause going, very little time for routine duties. This is the reason why colleges have a institution that is who devote their entire time to the institution's work.
It is rather unfortunate for the school and denomination such a rupture came at this time; for it is an admitted fact of the school's history, and the first time it was to be done in the first year of the school. But not only before Professor Terrell's administration that the doctor had no课,he does not pay the average going on in the Baptist circles in Texas, and when a person, a woman or minister, incurs the displeasure of the reigning ca. 30 years of life, and the time to be�ing and rating under Professor Terrell's administration that not enjoy before during its career.
The informer holds no interest for Professor Terrell, but he does know that there is too much of the "big stick" going on in the Baptist circles in Texas, and when a person, a woman or minister, incurs the displeasure of the reigning ca. 30 years of life, and the time to be�ing and rating under Professor Terrell's administration that not enjoy before during its career.
Last winter they dealt a dirty deal to another layman of the section, who has given the year of the school a de-dence to the school. The school was down and out and practically him is a solar plexus wallop—landed the blow below the belt when some of these same divines later visited this man's own and saw him riding around in a spanking new autor they had connitions and openly remarked that they could now say this layman could buy such a well.
In all of the years he did all they can for their chasers being these "old convention" Baptists, but when he came to the denomination of the school he was a number of the new beware; for their days are numbered and they are riding to a fall.
If the Baptist leaders do not want Professor Terrell as his name, he has their business; but the public little interest in that school, too, since it has received quite of public donation and support and these donors, both in an of the denomination, think that any man that has wrought in certain capacities as Professor Terrell at this school has been the most of the school and not "fired"; especially as he has committed no overt act, had neither squandered no appropriated any of the funds of the school, nor seduced the girls as one of his ministerial predecessors did.
For several decades, even while principal of the Ft. Worthy High School, he has been the principal of the driving his caled and means to the denomination; and at the local in relation to learning he has unstinted in his efforts to make great school.
That he was succeeding the remaining lines is evidenced his friends he was of the same part as the school.
We have a record of the college before the Terrell administration. We have no fuss to pick with the educational board of the lists for their action in demanding new blood at Houston C. out there is not a preacher on said board that would relish the of his church asking him for his resignation, effective in the future.
Then why treat another as they would not like to be themselves? Where is the Golden Rule they preach so much practice so little?
Just such acts as these reveal the true character and real of so many of our so-called religious leaders, many of whom are better pleaving corn or picking cotton than trying to do this.
We presume Doctor Lee reasoned that, if they would tree educator that way, they would treat another similarly, and, unlumbly he was so easily and so far as they had to do, they would have
There has been quite a bit of discussion regarding the action of the educational board of the Baptist Missionary and Educational Convention of Texas in virtually discharging Professor I. M. Terrell from the presidency of Houston College, peremptorily. Whatever prompted the board to tender the post to Dr. J. R. E. Lee, nationally known educator, and fail to re-elect Professor Terrell is the board's business; but there is a certain amount of consideration due every man and thus these Baptist leaders refuse to accord this common courtesy to Professor Terrell.
There is no denying the fact that Professor Terrell did more for getting Houston College on the map, locally, than any and all of his predecessors; while the financial support accorded the school by local white citizens, through Professor Terrell's activities, reached the highest mark in the history of the college.
The Informer recognizes the fact that a school needs something beside money, but when a man spends the most of his time in quest of finance to keep a school going, he has to undertake routine duties. This is the reason why some colleges have financial agents, who devote their entire time to this phase of the institution's work.
It is rather unfortunate for the school and denomination that such a rupture came at this time; for it is an admitted fact that Houston College has received certain local and foreign institutions that it intends to manage its administration that it did not enjoy before during its career.
The Informer holds no brief for Professor this paper does know that there is too much of the "big stick" stuff going on in the Baptist circles in Texas, and when a person be, he layman or minister, incurs the displeasure of the reigning car, he is generally marked out as a law, if any, the defense cause he is involved in such instances.
We have about concluded that it does not pay the average layman, especially of unusual ability and independence of thought, to serve the Baptist denomination in Texas, in its state work and various causes; for when these preachers think that you are down and out, they will proceed to a dirty deal to another layman of the concession, who has given the best years of his life to his denomination; they thought he was down and out and practically handed him a solar plexus wall—landed the blow below the belt. But when some of these same divines later visited this man's home town and saw him riding around in a spanking new automobile, they had conitions and openly remarked that they could not see him. It is all right for laymen to do all they can for their local churches among these "old convention" Baptists, but when they take charge of denominational institutions, newspapers, et cetera, let them beware! for their days are numbered and they are only riding to a fall. If the Baptist leaders do not want Professor Terrell as head of Hewlett-Packard that was their business; but the public has a little interest in that school, too, it since it has received quite a bit of public donation and support and these donors, both in and out of the denomination, think that any man that has wrought as well in certain capacities as Professor Terrell has at this school, should at least be given a man's chance and not "fired"; especially since he has been given the opportunity to be appropriated any of the funds of the school, nor seduced any of the girls as one of his ministerial predecessors did. For several decades, even while principal of the Ft. Worth Colored High School, this distinguished educator was giving his time, talent and means to the denomination; and at the local institution of learning he has been unstinted in his efforts to make it a
That he was succeeding along certain lines is evidenced by the friends he was making and retaining for the school, many of whom had never heard of the college before the Terrell administration. He was a teacher at the college, and he was instructing for their action in demanding new blood at Houston College, but there is not a preacher on board that would relish of his church asking him for his resignation, effective immediate. Then why treat another as they would not like to be treated themselves? Where is the Golden Rule they preach so much and practice so little? Just such action as these reveal the true character and real heart of our so-called religious leaders, many of whom would do far better plowing corn or picking cotton than to preach Christ. We presume Doctor Lee reasoned that, if they would treat one person they would treat another similarly, and presumably he was unwilling to be employed as a tool for the denomination to attain a given end and then show him the gate. He certainly used rare judgment in declining the proffered position.
Who'll be the next victim? Selah!

THE HOUSTON INFORMER, SATURDAY, JULY 28, 1923
"SATISFACTION" AND CLEANLINESS
We passed a home last Sunday evening and the lady of the house was sitting on the front porch singing, "I'll be satisfied then."
There was nothing particularly strange about this race woman's singing, neither the words of the song new to our ears; but what struck us was the insinatory and unsightly condition of the premises and her apparent satisfaction or indifference to her physical surroundings.
If she had not been singing, "I'll be satisfied then," we would have insisted on the many weeds and other debris about the place and the fact that this condition has obtained virtually all summer, she undoubtedly was very much satisfied now!
Our people are too satisfied with the insanity, unhealthy and unsightly condition of their premises and vastly too many permit their places to be eaten up with weeds and grass; yet many of us love the front porches and sing songs of joy, faith, adoration, hope, regeneration, sanctification, and triumph.
No person that is nasty, filthy and dirty here below can ever hope to reside in the home above; for if heaven is such a place as we are, and as portrayed by Saint John in his apocalyptic writings, the house should be the house housekeepers, who can so唱 so loud and so sing long and strong, are in for some keen disappointment in that final day.
If cleanliness is next to Godliness, then many of our people are in for a rude shock; for they will never even peep inside the pearly gate of the house.
We visit to a store of the necessary sections and it will shock all your sense of decency when you waterwatermelon rinds, banana peels, cans, bottles, rags, paper, litter, debris and all kinds of junk scattered not only over yards of so many of our houses and homes in the ditches and streets in front of their houses and homes.
The city should enforce the ordinance against throwing such junk and filth in the streets and if there is no law on the municipal statute books covering such an offense, the city council should provide a penalty for those who violate the sanitary conditions in colored residential districts are bad enough at their best and for our own people to make and maintain these conditions worse, is a reflection upon our civic pride and decency and a crying crime unto high heaven! The city should enforce the ordinance and the menace to public health of trash, filth and weeds on the premises, and here some of our ministers can render a signal service to the social family.
A city with as large colored population as Houston should really have a physician connected with the municipal health department, working out of a medical office in the department, devoting his time and attention to our people, their living conditions, environments, physical shape of their premises as they relate to and affect the health of the general community.
Such a departure and appointment would be in keeping with governmental out of office measures in the proper direction and would serve as a preventive rather than a curative measure. The colored race is no longer wholly and solely isolated from the other races of any city, North or South; and, while segregation is not a moral or legal or earthly way has been discovered or unmanned yet that can make diseases and epidemics any responder of persons or races.
If, because of filth and insanitary conditions, an epidemic originates in the colored district of a community, it is just a matter of hours before it has reached the homes of other races, especially those in various capacities around their homes and places of business.
You may isolate people and races, but you can not isolate diseases and epidemics; and medical science is repeatedly demonstrating that there is much for our people to do in keeping their premises clean, healthy and sanitary, by the use of a little elbow grease, lime and other disinfectants; while the city has a distinct duty to perform its colored cityism in this respect by lending aid and care to the elderly and the disabled. Only by co-operation between the colored citizenry and city fathers can the conditions in colored residential districts be improved and kept habitable, decent and sanitary. People take more pride in their homes, whether they own them or rent them, than they can only prevail and obtain where cleanliness has held sway. We do not object to you singing that song, sister, but we also suggest that, awaiting the day of your "satisfaction," you have the opportunity to be pampered up. Then we'll join in and help you sing your song. Sehla!

2. We Matthew W. Know.
3. his birth place is concealed. Our first sight of him is seen at the billboard was held by the legal law because he collected teams for the often government under whom they were tasked because of the extortion usually practiced by those in ruth. From the mugger accounts we find that Mathew W. Know.
4. A Man of Deckchin. We do not know whether he had ever met him or met him then, we note that he at once followed Jesus. Without doubt, there were many things to concern him. He he gives his own name and the fact that he designates himself a "publisher" that he did not overestimate himself.
5. He Possessed Force of Character. This is shown in the fact that he gives a gift and invited his friends in to a party.
He had two names, Levi, which "mattered" or "joked," and John, which "mattered" or "joked." Most Hilydid Matthew was the name assumed after his conversion (Math. 9.2).
1. As James Passed Up, He "Now a man of the Lord," he were in Matthew. He now through the hated profession of a tax gatherer knew what he was doing in food and apostolism. He now in Matthew the man fit to perceive and parry with the devil. His divine grace was revealed in this cell. Jesus what is in man in manification of name or profession.
2. (c. 28). He acted with decision and presumption: he left his business behind him. When Matthew perceived that greater the Lord had spoken to him, we may yield ourselves unto Him and render such man to Him. But the echoes of the divine voice in commanding. Two things in Matthew the gimmick of his conversion:
1. "He Left AH" (Luke 5:23). Bishil

such as illegitimate business, wicked

whatever He will, and a willingness
to do it, even if he need, if he

11. Matthew Hade a Guest: Quest ( Luke 5:29-32). This feast was made in honor of his newly-found Savior. His conversion was so real that he wanted his friends to become acquainted with his Savior. He was not ashamed to confess his Lord before them. He showed real tact in making a supper. Men will come to a feast much more readily than they will to a sermen. A great compaq of stinches came, who dredded his head. He now desired them to become his brothers in Christ. The Scribes and Pharisees were astounded that Jesus would appear in company with such a motley crowd of disreguishable persons. They were too cowardly to speak to Jesus but they came to the disciple. Jesus championed their cause and battled His advergence. His reasoning was unwavering. A physician's place is among the sick. Only those who are dismed should come to the doctor's issue. Since spiral natures are of some importance than physical, Jesus was more than justified in being in the center of those who were mutually sick that He might beal them of their malice. He came to call stinches to repentance.

turbed rest. Our printing plane has been greatly improved since our article by the addition of a tour thousand dollar Mergenthaler linotype machine, which, when installed, will put this department in a class by itself. In the near future, it is hoped a high class school of journalism will be one of the feature of this department. The drama, "The Pace At the Window," presented Thursday night of last week, by the White Rose Club, to a well-filled auditorium, and the lecture delivered on Monday by Dr. J. R. E. Lee, field secretary of the Urban League of New York City, were the high spots in the amusement program for the week. Among the visitors on the campus during the week were Dr. H. E. Lee, Prof. W. L. Solomon, Prof. A. G. Luper, all of Houston. The old Roman forum had nothing on the "mess hall" last week, when the ancient Romans were outclassed by the modern orators, who in one minute speeches extolled the virtues of Deus Rowe and put "pop" into the Sunday school $200 drive.
Only two more weeks, and the elk or nine hundred teachers, and those who are aspiring to be teachers, will have to be trained by the officers of our state to be putting into practice some of the theories they have incubated during this summer. The prevailing opinion with the man of science is that light is, that the summer term is entirely too short, and only a dozen weeks light, is that the student body from rettoning for an extension of time, prevents the student body from understanding here would conclude that the intense interest on the part of the man of science in the weeks of the term had decreased manpower, with longing eyes toward August 2nd, but to the contrary, the interest in the man of science has been coming of each new week. If there is a local "weather man" on the campus, the interest in the class of goods he has been distributing since our sojourn in this cool south winds have made the days ideal for class work, and the days in the cool north winds have made the days
