LEWIS-BROOKS, Directress ADMISSION 25c HOME EDITION VOL. VIII BUILT THE MIRROR BY C.F.RICHARDSON BRILLIANT ARTIST COMING The concert which will be given at Antioch Baptist Church Wednesday night, April 6, by Madam. Roberta Dodd-Crawford, brilliant lyric soprano of Chicago, III, promises to be a rare musical treat for music lovers of Houston and South Texas. Mr. Crawford and her husband, Captain W. 3. Crawford, the latter being connected with the famous Eighth Illinois Regiment stationed at Camp Logan during the World War. They met in a reunion of learning how to sing, here, the captain being later detached and placed in charge of the military unit at Prairie View State College. Mr. Crawford is a native of Texas, having from Bonham and being a product of Wiley College, Marshall, Texas, with a strong vision of learning has turned out some very outstanding singers and musicians. During her recent appearance in the city of her birth (Bonham) she sang to both races in the court house, and the white people were so well pleased that she was so happy that she rang amalgamations for her to repeat her concert in the First Methodist Church (white), and provided accommodations for the colored people to hear this wonderful race artist in her special reverberative performance. Wherever Mrs. Crawford has appeared on her present tour, she has been received by large and appreciative audiences, and musical critics and dailies have newspaper and radio coverage. This is the same time of a wonderful singing and remarkable voice of this Texas singer. While this accomplished artist is being brought to Home, the group's premier musical organization, her local engagement will be under the auspices of several circles of Antioch Church; and, judging from advances since the 1930s, she has been a regular pre-master of the� this brilliant singer a good house. This is as it should be, and The Informer will be sadly and sorely disappointed if "Heavenly Houston," where Mrs. Crawford formerly resided, is now in the capital of the United States. All Texans should have unusual young woman, who is destined to be outstanding artistic artists of the race, who has a voice of clear and bellicuous character, and technique, ample musicianism and a delightful artistry of presentation. SOCIAL WORKERS HEARD COLORED LEADER at MEET President M. W. Dogan of Wiley College, Marshall, Texas, in discuss- ing Negro delinquency before the state organization of social workers at Hous- ed Women's College. The organization can arise only with contact of contact and if they are well made with the fear of the future of good-will once properly start- ing any minor intermediary objection. Among remedies for Negro delinquency as set forth in President D. E. H. Moore's recognition and encouragement of intelligent, honest, men of in- termediate obstruction. Greater respect and protection for Negro workers on the high grade college as sources for training capable of public officials to the public com- forts and conveniences in Negro college. Negro delinquents including hospitals, asylums, reformatories, and court authorities; greater industrial and economic opportunities; better and more court authorities; better accommodations on public carriers; larger and more comfortable white and colored women; higher respect for personality of Negro on part of President Dogan is a member of the State Interstate Committee that has been working to improve the artistic artistry of presentation.

With the insurance department of Texas granting a charter to the Real Building and Loan Association of Houston, to do business in this state for 50 years, it begins to appear that "Heavenly Houston" will soon have the type of commercial institution which has long been one of the urgent and crying needs of our racial group in this community. The incorporators of this association, which is pursued and capitalized at $10,000,000 are Carter W. Wesley, J. Alston Atkins, John D. Epps, Belzora A. Malvin and C. F. Richardson. Probably the purpose of the association is best epitomized in its motto: Safety, Service and Satisfaction. The officers are: C. F. Richardson, president; John D. Epps, vice president; J. Alston Atkins, secretary-treasurer; Carter W. Wesley, auditor; Belzora A. Malvin, assistant secretary-treasurer.

The Real Building and Loan Association was organized to fill this need. The association will build new homes, to buy homes at ready built, and to adjust loans that have been deferred to build new property. Wherever a mortgage is carried the association will see to it to make sure that all loans are carried on the property and that all taxes are paid. It will pay from 6 to 8 members. It will refund all accounts on 30 day's notice; and when only a few members accounts desire withdrawal it will refund without taking advantage of the benefits. It will send a mail department so that members may join and carry on all of their duties. The association is endorsed. The association expects, through its experts (it has three lawyers, one accountant, and an authority in accounting among the officers) to give valuable advice to its members at no extra cost.

(© 1927, Western Newspaper Union.) Lesson for April 3 PETER BECOMES A DISCIPLE OF JESUS LESSON TEXT - Mark 11:45; 29-31 DOES THIS HOW? 29-31 AND I will make you to become a disciple of Jesus. **PRIMARY TOPIC - Peter Follows 2-3** **JUNIOR TOPIC - The Great Decision** **INTERMEDIATE AND NESPOTION TOOLED PEOPLE AND AUDIT TOOLING PEOPLE AND AUDIT TOOLING PEOPLE** **GIVEN TO THE GOD** 1. Jesus Preaching in Gallus (v. 14, 15). **The reason for Christ changing from Judas to Gallus is the growing opposition of Jesus to John the Baptist, as foreshadowing His own death. The rejection of the foreswain meant the rejection of John the Baptist.** 1. What He preached (v. 14). **The gospel of the kingdom of God which meant the good news of the kingdom when the rule of God as predicted by the prophets would be realized.** 2. How He preached (v. 15). **The gospel of the kingdom of God as predicted by the prophets would be realized.** 3. How He preached (v. 15). **The gospel of the kingdom of God as predicted by the prophets would be realized.** 4. "Begest". **The present that the people should turn around, change their minds and attitude toward Christ and accept Him as their King. The message of rejection which needs to be sounded out today.** 5. "Believe the gospel." Then, as men, need men to believe the gospel. 11. Jesus Called Peter and Andrew to become Fishers of Man. Jesus went to his kingdom in his kingdom. It is usually best to perform the Lord's service in paria. This has a threefold value. It makes the Lord's service more honorable on the part of workers and protection of the witnesses. It is to be noted that these men had previously been called fishermen (John 1:38-42). They are now called to serve. Observe: 1. From what they were called (x. 10). They were called from positions of definite service. They were fishermen. They were from the ranks of the employed. 2. To what were they called (v. 17). 3. To be "fathers of men." They no longer possess the qualities which made them good fishermen, namely, patience, bravery to the storm and darkness of the night, and the qualities which made them all night though no fish were caught, would make them good fishermen. 4. Their obedience (v. 15). 5. "Straightway they forsook their acts and followed Him." 6. To obey measure, painful perseverance, leading up of all business interests and leaving father behind. Regardless of the cost, they yielded promise of obedience. 7. Simon the Peter of Simon's House (vv. 29-31). 8. Soon after the letter of Peter and Andrew, Jesus called James and John. He sent them to the garden at Capernaum, where He cast out an evil spirit. This miracle caused him to be spread abroad. 9. When Jesus entered this home He found Peter's mother-in-law with a burning fever. We know that among them were suffering and are suffering ones and anxious and burdened hearts. To all such Jesus comes with love sympathy and power. 2. "They tell him of her" (v. 31). This was the proper thing to do in the case of a woman who was Jesus those of our spirituals who have need of bodily or spiritual healing. 3. "He came and took her by the hand and lifted her up." This act showed compassion and power of Jesus. At his touch the fever departed and strength was imputed. 43 "She ministered unto them." **v. 31** **B31** This act shows: 1) That the cure was instantaneous and complete. When Jesus heals there is no halfway business. 2) Gratitude on the part of the one who healed. 3) Preparation of what Jesus had done. All those who have experienced the healing power of Jesus will express gratitude to the service to the Lord and His discipline. God's Indulgence God is not over-indulgent. He is too loving for that. Because He loves us, and plan for our growth, He cannot be indulgent. He will not Justice his Justice stands side by side with His mercy, and cannot be evaded or out of account—Southern Mathod. Finding Strength Where shall we find strength for practical separation to God, except in God Himself—Echoes.

Worn to and subscribed before me this 25th day of January 1927. S. B. WILLIAMS. Notary Public. (My commission expires June 30, 1927.) ELECTION OF THREE SCHOOL BOARD MEMBERS. An election will be held Saturday, April 2, to elect three members to the board of education of the Houston Independent School District, and there are seven candidates in the race for the three positions. Of the candidates—R-H Fonville, Mrs. J. E Hodges and W. A. Kirkland—are seeking re-election to the board, and are making the race on their past record. Mr. Kirkland, who was appointed to fill the vacancy created by the removal of Attorney General Claude Pollard to Austin, is a banker, and a young man who rings true on most matters affecting the welfare of this community. He is actively identified with amateur sports in the city and is a member of the Houston Community College. Knowing him as we do, and believing that he can render a tremendous service to the school district as a board member, The Informer is favorable to Mr. Kirkland's candidacy, and urges our people to go to polls Saturday and cast a ballot for him. Mr. Fonville is president of the board and as chief executive has been instrumental in getting under way Houston's wonderful building and expansion program as it relates to its public schools, and he certainly deserves re-election at Saturday's election. The Informer is supporting Mr. Fonville's candidacy, and thinks that the colored voters can not go wrong by voting for him Saturday. As a third member of the board, The Informer has chosen to endorse the candidacy of Ernest Alexander, one of our leading business men and religious workers, who is offering himself for the first time as a member of the board of education. In assuming this attitude and taking this position, The Informer holds to the belief that more business men should be on the board, and that the paper is supporting three business men for board membership. In doing this, The Informer holds no grudge against any of the other four candidates seeking these three posts, but we believe that the election of Messrs. Fonville, Kirkland and Alexander will give Houston and this school district the type of school board we want. While busy business men, these three candidates are thoroughly conversant with public school problems, and they are so financially situated that they can render and perform this type of public service in a most creditable and constructive manner. While speaking about board members and public schools, The Informer wants to digress just a bit and admonish our people to be more responsible for the candidates seeking positions on the local board of education. In such elections every qualified voter can cast a ballot, and there is nothing in the way of our people going to the polls and helping to elect those officials who must direct and guide the business affairs of the Houston public schools. We do not want the elective franchise rights in such elections and line up solidly behind those candidates who will best serve our interests and the interests of the entire school district, we can hope for very little consideration from public school authorities. We do not manifest much interest in our public schools, for it is the duty of the shakeup organization of the colored teaching force in this city; for we have the teachers who are merely "keeping school" rather than teaching the pupils; some who are more interested in their pay envelope than in the educational training and intellectual development of the children committed and entrusted to their charge and keeping. We have practically no say about who shall teach our children, and we have no way to over preparation; for if the cover were lifted and the truth disclosed and sensational revelations would be made concerning the fit- The Houston Informer South's Greatest Weekly Newspaper TUSKEGEE INSTITUTE PREPARES FOR CLINIC; NOTED SURGEONS DUE PAGEANT TO REPLACE MAY FETE HELD EACH YEAR IN WEST ENDPARK HIGH SCHOOL MINSTRELS PLEASED PACKED HOUSE ness, educational and otherwise, of many of the colored teachers in the Houston public schools. Whenever a white teacher is employed and assigned to a public school, the patrons of that school generally have their say concerning appointment; and, if said teacher does not come up to the meeting formally and otherwise, these white patrons will see to it that such teacher is not long retained as teacher of their children. But when it comes to the selection and appointment of colored teachers, their educational training and moral character are seldom, if ever, taken into consideration; provided said teachers are recommended by "So and So." and, if necessary, respectable and well educated young women to get positions as teachers in the colored public schools of Houston, because said girls or young women will not literally "sell themselves" to certain "pullers" who have the influence to land an appointment for said applicants. We certainly need parent-teachers associations in our various public schools, and no well-meaning principal should object to such an organization functioning in connection with his school. It seems that some of our local colored principals are of the opinion that they own the schools, both buildings, grounds and equipment, and that the patrons and taxpayers have no rights to the schools, bound to request, and the public schools of Houston belong to all the people, and all the people should evince more than passing interest in their schools, their teachers and the members of the board of education. The Informer urges all qualified colored voters to go to the polls Saturday, April 2, and cast a ball in the school trustee elections. The Informer is endorsing in this editorial, it is your constitutional prerogative to vote for the candidates of your choice. As for The Informer, we think that R. H. Fonville, W. H. Kirkland and Ernest Alexander are the logical candidates on whom the colored candidates can center their support and strength, and we come up with candidates to you for your support and vote in Saturday's election.

Mrs. Franklin, the Houston cast is working hard and earlily well pleased with the progress already made by the actors and participants. She confidently expects the audience to be astonished success which has greeted this presentation of the history of the Negro race in other American cities. HIGHSCHOOL M PLEASED PACK ____. "Black Cats' Nite," a musical comedy, presented by the students of Booker T. Washington High School of which Prof. W. E. Miller is principal, made its premiere Monday night before an audience that taxed the capacity of the auditorium of the Odd Pellows Temple, and overflowed into the corridors and halls. In fact, several were turned away because standing room was at a premium. The show was a good and cleverly put over by the young people, the only criticism being against the length of the show. It was entirely too long and hundreds left before the final act. Alvin Watkins as Reuben, the rustic kick, was the hit of the show, and literally brought down the house. His acting was good and his costume was a "knockout." The singing was exceed ness, educational and otherwise, of many school, the patrons of that school gerning such appointment; and, if said the requirements, educationally and other will see to it that such teacher is not their children. But when it comes to the selection of teachers, their educational training at In nine episodes the pageant tells a very graphic, artistic and simple manner the glories of our people in the past, following them faithfully through their period of bondage.
