Houston Informer

GOREE EXPLAINS HIS POSITION IN ODD FELLOWS CONTROVERSY Houston will be host to two grand logues during the next six weeks: ) United Brothers of Friendship and Odd Fellows and Household of Ruth the following week, August 27. ) Both of these grand sessions will be held in an annual session here, July 27, 31, and the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows and Household of Ruth the following week, August 27. ) Both of these grand sessions will be called upon to serve in the entertaining role as never before. This will be the first time the U. B. P's have met in Houston in the past. ) To many of you to yet many of the order it will be like a home-coming, for it is here that the order (the first colored fraternity in Texas to purchase an office building) owns and operates two houses from the City Hall. Houston has another distinct U. B. P's in Houston that is the largest aggregate membership in the order of any city in the Texas city's leading business and professional men and women; same being true among the Odd Fellows and As for the Odd Fellows and Ruthies, their forth coming Houston sessions will be a jubilee, for it will mark the first grand session held in the imposing city which cost around $650,000, including lots, building, equipment and furnishings. All local committees of both orders are working out all details for the entertainment features, programs and events expected—that all attendance records will be broken at both of them. Though possessing the largest colorful population in the state and the country, Houston is home to the Texas fraternities. Houston has not entertained as many grand lodge members as the other denominations as some of the smaller cities of the Lone Star state, but the city's fraternities visit the visitors and residents, we are hoping that colored Houston will no longer be the entertainment program when same conventions occur. HARLEM HOSPITAL NOW OPEN TO COLORED DOCTORS AND INTERNES; EARNEST FIGHT NETTED RESULTS New York.—On Tuesday Harlem Hospital opened its doors to Negro physicians and internes.

CHURCHES PLAN FIGHT AGAINST LYNCHING EVIL (Preston News Service) Washington, D. C.-Party years ago we used to lynch men at the rate of 172.8 a year, here in America. Last year we lynched only 18. The Federal Council of churches hopes to make a change. Since 1888, when the fight was started against this "strictly American crime," the smallest number of lynchings in the number of lynchings. Sixteen lynchings took place in the United States last year, the smallest number of annual statistics on the crime was begun 40 years ago, and was shown in the annual reports of commission on race relations of the Federal Council of churches. The reopening of Tunkuisee institutes, Alabama, showed that 12 of the victims were Negroes. In the impasse ending with last year 587 lynchings were recorded as compared with 700 for the previous year. In the forward decrease in the crime which has progressed steadily through every decade the number of lynchings 40 year period the figures for last year, it was showed, was lower than the last year, with the lead for the period shown to be 36.4. Negro victims numbered 2,146 while white victims numbered 1,900. Working with other organizations in a campaign to make 3928 a "lynchman," in order to protect their prisoners in these 45 preventions, sheriffs and police sometimes even opened fire on their friends and neighbors. In some instances they find with their prisoners during All the 40 year period there has been one white man lynched to "the personal security of every virtue and the supremacy of the law." George E. Hayne, secretary of the commission which is "campaigning the commission" These figures show that America can become a lynchman land. Determined action will make that the last person in the country condemn and menace to our life." BRILLIANT RACE WOMAN THRILLS HUGE AUDIENCE BRILLIANT RACE WOMAN THRILLS HUGE AUDIENCE A. N. P.

Lesson for July 5 THE BEGINNING OF FOREIGN MISSIONS **LESSON TEXT - Act 13:11-12** **GOLDEN TEXT - And he said unto** **him, 'Come unto me, and preach the gospel to every creature—** **PRIMARY TOPIC - Two Men become** **Foreign Missionsaries.** **JUNIOR TOPIC - How Foreign Mis-** **situations arise.** INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC The Beginning of Foreign Missions YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC The Holy Spirit in Foreign Missions I. The Gifts of the Church at Antioch (v. 1). Young as Antioch, the new religious center was, she had prophets and teachers. In Eph. 4:18-12 Paul declares that when Christ succeeded he gave to the church the power to feel the sultans unto the work of the ministry. This shows that the church does not exist for itself, but he gives the head of the church, came not to be ministered to, but to minister and give His life a ransom for many (Matt. 20:28). Babase and Saul Sent Forth (v. 2-3). These were the first foreign missionaries sent out. While the five ministers were preaching and fasting, God commanded them to send forth Barnabas and Saul. The work of evangelizing the world was the kind of feeding that they retailed from eating in order to seek the will of the Lord in prayer. This is the kind of feeding that meets the needs of the people they were directed to send forth those whom the Spirit called, we learn that the real call to Christ's service comes from the church and the church seconded the motion by sending those who were called by Him. The church should be constant in their service to the sending forth of laborers into the vineyard. The Spirit called and the church from the church to Antioch. These men seem to have been ready to go for they rendered instant obedience to the Lord's work, holding ourselves in readiness for the immediate execution of His commission. The real call are not taken, by surprise when the church sets them forward to their specific work. The Word of God in Cyprus (p. 4-5). We are not told as to why they first went to Cyprus, but we are left to infer that it was owing to the fact that it was acquainted with the country and people, and could thus be assured of a respectable hearing among them. Be sure to note that he had heard the good news to go with it first to their kindred and friends. Andrew first went to his brother, and then to his sister, and were cast was denied the pleasure of his request to follow Jesus. Christ commanded him to go home and tell what great things the Lord had done for him. He was faithful to God will never preach anything but His Word. The great need today in Spirit-called, Spirit-filled men is that they should be filled men will preach nothing else. The opponent of God and Christ can only be successfully met by this means. Withstood by Elyman, the Sorcerer (v. 0-12). Sergius Paulus, the deputy, invited Barnabas and Saul to tell him of the Word of God. Elymus maliciously told Saul that he was a faithful faith. This is the first obstacle they encountered, but it was overcome through the power of the Spirit. This is the first obstacle Adam in the garden of Eden, and Jesus in the wilderness. He is the enemy of God and man. He now sought to bar the gospel as it entered the heathen. Paul denounced him in the most scathing terms. He called him the child of the devil, denounced him for his insulting nouncing him, the enemy of all righteousness, accusing him of perverting the right ways of the Lord. Surely a man is more than a wolf, trying to turn to a soul from the gospel. Our Life We are living now by justice, honor and mercy, by the moral mastery of God, by the power of God, by the life in white life is not of time; it is life in God and for God; it is the life of freedom; it is free from anxiety, and it is free from suffering; it is content with God and with its fate in God. —George A. Gordon. Sunday Sunday must continue Sunday— Braun.

"Let Us Reason Together" College Court is now conceded, by all who have seen it, to be the greatest bay, in the way of high class homesites. In Houston. It is not the only place in the city where proved colored addition in the city. This fact can be easily verified by comparison with other additions. In approaching College Court, you can see that the street is the S. A. P. Avenue, nor do you have to the S. A. P. A. P. switch yawn. Instead of following street car lines, along busy roads and tunnels, you can drive over the Webster and W. Gray to drive over in going to and from College Court does not lie its way out beyond such districts as Houston Heights, not is surrounded by parks and only access is through the bayou, but lies between River Oak flats and with the approach through restricted residential areas in a moderately sized neighborhood. Odd Fellows' building to College Court, with a pleasant side all the way. If College Court is the best—and it is—and if the prices are the best—than in several other colored additions—and they are too high for you. If you want to be in College Court than in any other place in the city, why do you, who can afford the best, buy where you pay the same and get homesteads of a quality property. We have sold some of the leading colored men in Honolulu lots in the College Court. Among them is the editor of this paper: Mr. C. W. Kane, the first editor in the College Court; Mr. Grabenheimer. They will attest to the truth of every word heard printed. To you who have seen College Court, but who are waiting and waiting and waiting and waiting, that why are you waiting and you admit that we are your greatest quality in the city. Then, why do you wait? So these lots will all be sold and you will have lost your opportunity. Don't lose all. Our S. MINCHEN MANAGER OF SALES 408 Union National Bank Bldg.
