This shows that the advertiser recognizes The Informer as an excellent source of the race in this section of the state and country, and it further demonstrates the importance of about the reading clientele of this paper. On this paper has insisted, from time to time, that it hends the field in this respect among the colored newspapers of the country, many of whom merely coot our own horn, and that instead of confessing, we were bragging people, with their peculiar psychology, will believe and give credence to at least one of them. We write, we pass on to the findings and report of this Southern white man, who speaks with authority and
WILLIS AT IT AGAIN!
According to an article, which appeared in newspapers in recent days, daily newspaper of Cleburn, W. S. Wills, grand wife of the Colored knight of Shakespeare, the Colored knight of his novel and "funny tricks." This time, the knight, also benefited to his order and race, has had his grandson will employ it as an educational car; making welcome visits to the various colleges and universities; and bears of the grand land family and delivering to and concluding meetings of and places. Besides educational campaigns, Mr. Wills hopes to not only boost the cause of the arts, but also to provide a signal service to the antique social group at all places visited by his official grand wife.

SUPREME COURT TO HEAR EL PASO CAUSE ARGUED
New York City — The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People announces receipt of a telegram from Fred C. Kohlberglen, a spokesman for the United States, stating that the United States had docked the case of Nixon vs. Hendron, which will be made the entering wedge of an attack upon the diffranchisement of Negroes in the case. The case arises out of a Texas law passed in 1928, prohibiting Negroes from entering primarys. It is confirmed that this effectually diffranchises colored voters in contravention of the fifteenth Amendment, which primaries constitute virtually the only primaries for election to office in that case. The case goes to the U. S. supreme court on appeal from the U. S. district court in New York, to Negro. Dr. A. L. Nixon, from the democratic primaries in accordance with

EXPERIENCED MAN TO
OPERATE CAFETERIAS
AT 4 WARD SCHOOLS
NELSON C. CHESTER, congenial proprietor of Lincoln White Kitchen, Till Prairie Avenue, and Place Immanuel Garden, Sampoon and Place, has been designated by the local board of education to operate the cafeteria at several of the colored public schools. These cafeteries will be under supervision of the school district, and will be operated at Bruc, Blackhawk, Douglass and Gregory ward schools.
Mr. Chester is well prepared for this newly created position, and should bring to the schools a class of culinary personnel that is hard of experience for the job but had years of experience in the cafe, restaurant, cafeteria and eating house business, and is now conducting two of the newest and nicest places of their kind to be found in the city or state.
The informer congratulates the business manager, superintendent of public schools and board of education for their selection of Mr. Chester, and
RACE PRIDE AND COSMETICS
Opportunity Magazine:
Guy B. Johnson, a white Southerner with an insuring turn of mind, has stumbled into a curious anamoly in the self-feeling of Negroes. He anks, "Have hair straightness." Social Forces, lightens become permanent features of the Negro culture?" There is nothing supported of information. He took five responses to information. It is supported by a most interesting Chicago Defender, The Negro World. Journal and Guide, Atlanta Institute and Texas Informatics, Informer, and studied advertising on the theme that they money to exhibit their wares without some commemorative profit. Of these stories: Class A, which included advertisements of clothing, food, fuel, professional services, insurance and included books; Class B, which included music, musical instruments, theatre, amusements, Class C, which included beauty preparations, patient medicines, cheap jewelry, and rather elemental desires. The predeparent majority of the advertisements had an adjuster referred to above. And here is the result:
Class Class Class
A B C
The Defender. 6.5 8.3 79.6
The Negro World. 6.5 8.3 79.6
The Journal & Guide. 49.5 35.0 79.6
Atlanta Independent. 35.0 7.5 87.5
Informer. 59.6 65.7 83.5
An interpretation of these figures would doubtless draw protesters from many whites who see in them nothing else but a desire on the behalf of blacks.
If the proportions mean anything, we have the very interesting situation of the *The Chicago Defender*, and the *The Movement* (giving great emphasis to the mechanism for "obliterating" the normal existence of the Negro papers giving greatest emphasis to the normal necessities of the daring, and the daring, and the matter, however, from its more ridiculous implications, we have a situation, undoubtedly true, which reflects the tragic dual life of the Negro fashion to which they are exposed for a long period of time, just longer. There are no special Negro styles, and the penalty of nonconformity, and the greater severity, than the bitter ridicules directed at an incongruous end.

Bethesia Baptist Church Suffers $250,000 By Bomb Explosion—Building Recently Purchased From Jewish Congregation on South Side—Pastor, Officials and Members Determined—Police and Detective Agency Making Investigation.
(By the Associated Negro Press.)
Chicago, IL.—At four o'clock a mile radius of 53rd Street and from their beds by the detonation the mammoth Bethesda Baptist school six blocks around. The blast w Chicago and carried stark fear feared that its thunderous voice The Bethesda Baptist Church Jewish congregation which has a large price is said to have $250 tate men, was much less than it stood majestically in the center rich Jews and a white bourgeois class students. months ago it was $5,500 for the congregation, made the announcement He is the Rev. Eli T. Martin.
Chicago, Ill.-At four o'clock Friday morning residents within a mile radius of 53rd Street and Michigan Avenue were aroused from their beds by the detonation of a bomb which destroyed the mammoth Bethesda Baptist Church at the confluence of the Hancock and the Chicago River six blocks around. The blast was the worst ever experienced in Chicago and carried stark fear into the hearts of thousands who feared that its thunderous voice was the herald of an earthquake.
The Bethesda Baptist Church was recently purchased from a Jewish congregation which had joined with another group of Jews and erected a synagogue in another locality. The purchase of the church, according to real estate data, was much less than the self-funded monastery in the center of an aristocratic settlement of rich Jews and a white bourgeois from the merchant and commercial classes. Ten months ago it was bombed and damage done to the extent of $8,500. At that time the pastor, backed by his congregation, made the announcement that he did not intend to move the church to Harbor Blvd. Madison.
Several of the richest Chicago Negrates are members of the church, including Anthony Overton, president of the Overton-Hygiene Company and of the Boughs National Bank, and Mr. Hinga of the old department of presenting bomb outrages against Negrates that the church was insured against fire for $280,000. The damage was supposed to have been $150,000, which is therefore covered by the insurance. Another $100,000 damage was done in the breaking of windows and the tearing house of residence and apartment of the church. The office of a colored woman who has been "passing" and attending meetings with the church were forced to leave their homes and to hire guards to protect their exposured personal property.

The purchase, which, according to real estate office was actually worth. It was purchased from the merchant and commerer was bombed and damage done to the pastor, backed by his conti that he did not intend to move.
The state's attorney's office got immediate attention, aided by the Keystone National Detective Agency, which looks more hopeful than any move yet made to apprehend the person guilty of probbing bomb outrages against Negroes in the last seven years. A search office in Keystone is being reranged to be ringleaders in certain protective associations which have been appointed by the person guilty of driving colored buyers from white districts. It is reported that informants in the Keystone Police force for the office by a colored woman who has been "passing" and attending meetings were the plausible candidates to instantiate value in apprehending the guilty parties.

Notice to Odd Fellows & H. H. of Ruth
To the Lodges and Household of Ruth of the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows, Jurisdiction of Texas:
Brethren and Sisters—Greeting:
This comes to inform you that Brother H. G. Gorce, the late Grand Master of the Odd Fellows in Texas, has been called to his reward and I have asked the Grand Master of the order of Texas, May God help me to discharge the duties of the office in such manner as will be a credit to the great order which we represent.
You will please note carefully my first announcement to the Lodges and Households throughout Texas.
(a) NOTICE.
To Local Lodges in Jurisdiction No. 25, State of Texas: in view of the fact that D. G. Master H. G. Gorce has deceased we believe it to be fitting that the local lodges throughout the jurisdiction observe memorial services in their halls on Sunday evening, November 1st, at 3:30 p.m. This applies to those lodges that have not already carried out a service. We urge that this observance be made unserved by all local lodges in connection with the Households of Ruth. A statewide observance will be arranged in Houston later on in the year.
1. My office will be in Corsicana, Box 185. All communications should be sent to my home address.
2. I ask co-operation and brotherly kindness from all the Brotherhood and Sisters of Ruth.
3. We want the Odd Fellows to not only hold their own in Texas but we should move forward with greater leaps and bounds than ever before.
4. We don't want any sleepers and drones in our camp but every man should be wide awake and at work on the problems which will necessarily confront us as a great institution.
5. We want 10,000 new members this year and a revival in all the Lodges and Households in the jurisdiction. Can we have it?
6. Until the next Grand Lodge, all cards, medical blanks will be secured from office of the medical examiner, Dr. J. R. Moore, San Antonio; Grand Secretary J. T. Ewing and J. H. Riddle, Odd Fellows Temple, Houston.
7. At present we have four organizers appointed by the board at the last Grand Lodge as follows: Waldo Matthews of Silsbee, Texas; E. G. McDonald, Milford, Texas; Bro. P. A. Hill of Austin, Texas, and Bro. Willis of Denison, Texas. The board has not authorized any others.
8. Let every member in the order, every organizer, every loyal supporter, to call for a forward movement and success will crown our efforts.
9. For the present, the drive for members will be conducted by the endowment department, all organizers reporting directly to Bro. J. H. Riddle's office, and that office to the grand master.
10. The grand master will ask the head of all departments to report to his office for all information and any changes affecting the work.
11. The tree is known by the fruit it bears, and the workman is known by his reports.
12. Now, again we ask the membership to give us your support, your powers, your loyalty and your push and above, and we shall go over the top.
13. The Budget will hereafter be mailed from Houston with the grand master as chief editor and Bro. G. S. Meadows of Commerce, Texas, as corresponding editor; arrangements by our late district grand master.
15. We ask the lodges and members in the jurisdiction everywhere to let us practice economy in all our handling of the people's money. In other words, let "economy" be the slogan for this administration and "saving" our watchword.
Send us the news items and we shall hope to give you a first-class paper.
Yours in F. L. and T.

These 12 disciples had been taught preparation for the kingdom of God. Paul taught them to believe on Christ, i.e. to receive him as the One on Christ, and then for them, they received Christ, Paul held hands upon them and they received the Holy Spirit. Paul preaching in Sebastian (v. 8.10).
In the Jewish Synagogue (v. 8). Those in the Jews were Paul's disciples, and then first with the gospel. His preaching was characterised; i.e. by boldness. He realised that God had authority that His authority was back of him.
(2) By reason. God's message is, in accord with the highest reason. He is the reason to come boldly with a reasonable message, it must be accompanied by persuasion. (4) By speaking, "concerning the kingdom of God." He did not discourse on current events, literatures or philosophy, but upon the message of Jesus. (5) In the Schoolhouse of Tyrnan (vv. 9-10). He gave the beneficiaries of the gospel of the God, were only hardened by Paul's earnest preaching. Paul was the teacher, and resorted to the Schoolhouse of Tyrnan. This was followed with glorious results. (11) God Working Minutes by Paul (vv. 12).
Ephesus was noted for its wonder workers. If Paul's ministry was to the success he had ended up in an accident, he had been hardworking. His work. So wonderfully did he manifest His power that hardwearing and arduous brought from Paul's ministry the slick and cast out evil spirits. I, A. Glorious Awakening (vv. 37-41).
Fear Pulp Fiction All (v. 17).
News of the casting out of these evil spirits created impressive favors to Christianity.

They believed but had not broken from them Up the Practice of Black Arts (v. 19). This means forms of juggery by which they proved the guinnesses of their actions by publicly burning their books Up of the Silvermith at Ephorus (v. 28-41).

It was clear to them that idolatry was tolerated in the market of others of a similar nature, called a meeting and stated that much people had been killed in the market for their warms was instantly weakened. He appealed to his followers. The market of business, saying: "This our craft, is in danger of being set at mangle, in the market of religious prejudice.

Christianity is in no mere scheme of doctrine or of ethical practice, but is a way of life, a way of nature and above, descending into it; a historically supernatural movement on the world that is wholly enlightened by the power of the institution in the person of Jesus Christ—Horace Burhill.

UNITED ACTION DEMAND OF THE TIMES!
Newspaper dispatches from all sections of the country indicate that the American Negro is facing one of the most stubborn and formidable fights in the history of the race in America, and unquestionably against the inferior and insidious attack of this hideous, hydraheded monster, Racial Prejudice, he will be robbed and robbed of every vestige of his political, civic and economic rights and warranties within the next decade or two.
The black man who can not read the signs of the times and give his voice to the voices of those deformed already; for it is a tite aphorism applicable to our predicament, just as true today as when originally uttered, that "he would be free, himself must strike the first blow."
The segregation menace is bobbing up with painful regularity in different sections of the country, and a determined effort seems to be making the race black in this reputed "land of the free and home of the brave."
To further their program of restricted residential districts, these foes to orderly government and traducers of democracy, are resorting to violence and terrorism in their maddened and frenzied invasions of the colored man who dares to threaten "lily-white" domain.
While these proponents of segregation are raising huge sums of money to vigorously prosecute their cause, and are employing bomb-throwers, vandals and anarchists in the execution of their crimes, they are also using the same impulses by and trusting solely and wholly in the "good white folks and the Lord;" or holding mass-meetings and passing empty and meaningless resolutions, deploring this and denouncing that, but all breaking for the door when the suggestion is made that a fund be raised to counsel and fight the matter out through the courts of the land.
IF THE BLACK MAN EVER BECOMES AN ENTITY IN THE LIFE OF THIS COUNTRY; IF HE IS TO BE TREATED AND BEAUTIFIED ANY OTHER BEAUTY IN OUR PEROGENEOE POPULATION, AND BE ACCORDED ALL THE RIGHTS AND PREBOGATIVES WARRANTED AND GUARANTEED HIM UNDER THE CONSTITUTION OF THIS COUNTRY, HE MUST AWAKE FROM HIS RIP VAN WINKLE SNOOZE AND DO SOMETHING FOR HIMSELF.
We have operated too much along the individualist line, often employing the tactics of the ostrich (burying our heads in the sand and not beholding the attacking elements or forces, as if such procedure removed the danger or altered the situation), and we have fooled nobody but ourselves on one hand, while on the
The Houston Informer
other hand we have not gotten very far in securing and maintaining our inalienable and sacred rights and privileges. When legislation and measures are proposed and passed that are inalienable and hostile to other radiance of the earth, will raise our standards, offer both the measure and its proponent or proponents; but with us we begin to engage in our favorite pastime, singing our national anthem, and bewailing "our sad and bitter lot," but doing nothing tangible or concrete to seek redemption from such evils and lilies.
SOONER OR LATER COME INTO A REALIZATION OF THE FACULTY that HIS INTERESTS ARE MUTUAL, AND THAT NEEPER THE LIFE NOR PROPERTY OF ANY MEMBER OF THE RACE IS SAFE OR SECURE AS LONG AS WE VICIETIMES OF COLORPHORIA AND ITS VARIOUS RAMIFICATING. The second emancipation of the race must be effected by the race, for while Lincoln's emancipation proclamation took us out of slavery, it failed to take slavery and its imprints out of us.
To put over this or any other program the race must develop and select its own leadership, and cause submitting meekly and docilely to a superimposed leadership, which, so often, will sell us the freedom we need. THE PATHWAY TO COMPLETE EMANCIPATION FROM THE INJUSTICES AND INEQUALITIES OF OUR DAY AND TIME IS NOT STREWN WITH SWEET-SCENTED FLOWERS, NOR IS IT FREE FROM RUTS, BAD BRIDGES AND DANGEROUS CURVES; AND ONLY THE RACE WITH RED BLOOD, HAD NO NONE CAN EVER HOPE TO NEGOTIATE THIS ROAD AND REACH ITS DESTINATION. SELLA!
SUNDAY FUNERALS AND FUNERALS ON SUNDAY.
At best, most of the big "Sunday funerals" we have witnessed in this city are sickening, disgusting and a travesty upon Christianity; and it was to put an end to such disgraceful and degrading spectacles that the Informer took its position some years back to demonstrate demonstrations and celebrations on Sundays. We devote to them many hours of service and personal persons who hurried the biggest rock at the decedent while he was alive, will bring the largest bouquet and place it upon his bier when he passes away.
It is not our intention to enter into any controversy here regarding the rightness or wrongness of any pastor in refusing to attend a service; it is not our intention to other minister for such purposes, or to open the door of his church for said purpose; that is largely a matter between himself, his conscience and his God—for no church building is the sole and whole property of the pastor, though the pulpit is his by divine appointment and ordination.
However, the Informer is in heart accord with the movement to be Sunday funerals, as such, and thinks that when our people have been properly enlightened along this line, they will acquiesce and govern themselves accordingly.
COMMUNITY CHEST DRIVES AND COLORED CITIZENS.
Since our annual drive does not begin until the middle of next month, the Informer again suggests that we point a message of local colored cities to work among our own people, just as is being done in Dallas, Nashville and other Southern cities which conduct Community Chest camps.

It is fortunate, indeed, that such men as constitute the present board of directors of the Prairie View Academy, will come to the rescue of Prairie View at the most crucial period in its history, when the right thing will be done, because they cannot afford to do otherwise. We will need to furnish them ground floor information which will aid them materially in their success, and we will need to worry about the outcomes. If my belief, based upon authentic assurance, that the alumnus association has a splendid opportunity to be of great help, I will be constructive a program at Prairie View, provided we do go off half a day and a couple of hours in authority with personal views and recommendations which should reach the discerning and weakening the influence of your own organizations and credit for anything good that may be snatch off a little artificial spotlight and my "in the people's business."

The American pastime, probes, in now directed in Texas to the State Department, since the late war there have been probes and investigations galore. The State Department is coming in for its share of probing and still the necessity for further probing. Texas is about to appreciate an afair similar to the Oklahoma fiasco recently, when the legislators decided to hold a special session of the state legislature to discuss the governor Walton. Aren't we glad that we don't have to mix up in these cases? Persistent rumors have it that the unfortunate workman who this week from the building at Texas and Fannie Mae has passed for white in order to work at his trade. The moral is—when passions keep your feet on the ground.
