INFORMER'S NEW DRESS
Perhaps our readers and advertisers observed the new dress which the Informer wore last week, as well as the abundance of news and editorial contributions and reprinted articles.
Last week's issue of The Informer was set up and made up in our own office, and the abundance of news and editorial contributions and reprinted articles.
Last week's issue of The Informer was set up and made up in our own office, and the abundance of news and editorial contributions and reprinted articles.
For being late last week, we ask the advertisers, yet all local readers and advertisers receive their papers Sat. morning of an amount of labor-type-typing, planning and laying out forms, setting up materials—to return to out last week's paper, one can readily see that we performed a creditable and commensurate publication newspaper-hook folder are being installed this week (by the way, the complicated machinery is being done by a member of our racial unit, over 25 years, he has been connected with Barnhart Brothers and Spindler to produce next week's issue in its entirety in our own plant, the most advanced in the industry and operated by Negroes in Texas.
Our typesetting is done on the latest model number 14 Mergenthaler linotype, which gives us faces rapping from 6 point body type to 30 point newspaper headline type. This linotype is the last word in typesetting machines, and will take care of both our newspaper and job work.
Already, our force has been considerably increased, and we are now living decent and lucrative employment to 11 members of our race, including three officials of the corporation, who have rolled up their sleeves and are working: in any and every capacity to the end that the organization might function smoothly and successfully.
Whenever a man's wife or sweetheart dons a new-dress, she naturally expects her husband or lover to notice same and tell her what he thinks about her livery and finery; and we are not averse to receiving a word, either of commendation or censure, concerning the new dress worn by The Informer last week.
We plan to give to the reading public and advertising clientele a bigger and better paper, and last week's edition was the beginning in that direction. The size of the paper was also increased, which made it possible for us to carry more news of the reading public, and, as soon as we can begin operating all our facilities, we shall endeavor to prove that The Houston Informer is really and truly "America's Greatest Weekly Newspaper."
Our formal opening will be announced later. Watch for date and come out.
BACK AGAIN: GONE AGAIN
Well, folks. Houston finally landed lodge 101, lodge of the Whalams and Calcutta Lodge of the Whalams, and suggest that the local loges organize their forces as early as possible and work year after year; and, in the selection of general chairman and committee chairmen or chairwoman, care should be exercised to ensure that the loges have their fitness and ability to put over the job, rather than upon the fact that they are not the loges lodge or court, or may be friends to some of the leading local Pyrian men, more to see along this line later.

Negro Author Writes of Trial
Ibn Rahab
New York—In the June number of The Messenger, a Negro magazine published in New York City, Mr. J. A. Rogers, the noted Negro author writes: "When the Christian Negro-group points with pride to St. Augustine, the Numidian Negro, and tells what he did to advance Christianity, the Mohammedan one can point to Bilal, and tell what he did for Christianity's greatest rival. The Negro is, however, hardly likely to do so, as Islam, not in theory, but in actual, knows no color line. This Bilal Ibn Rahab whom Mr. Rogers dubs the "warrior-Priest" is described as "dark, gaunt, with Negro features and bushy hair." He was the only one of Mahomet's original followers who did not recent when torrued by their masters for taking up the new religion. "In the depths of anguish the persecutor could force from him but one expression, 'Abad! Abad! (One, only one God).
When the Mohammedanism had spread with the aid of the sword and with the aid of the sword says Rogers, "The important task of Mohammedanism is to defeat the Mohammedanism) in the minds of the faithful was left to Bilal, while the enemy was left to Babil of battle and of government." "Babil matter what was about to happen. At the battle of Ood, white the enemy danced, he made the soldiers kneel and his fury seal, after which they fought through outnumbered and deserted by one of their allies just before the battle."

Lesson for June 19
PETER TEACHES GOOD CITIZEN
SHIP
Temperance Lesson.
LESSON TEXT I - Peter 8:11-14
LIST 4-1
In order to get an intelligent grasp of today's lesson, one must get a view of the entire epilate as to its purpose and method. The purpose was to establish all who were passing through (see ch. 17.3, 14.12, 5.10, 11.2).
The principles of Christian behavior set forth in the text of this lesson are of broader scope than citizenship behavior. 1. Behavior as Pilgrims and Bojourners (v. 11, 12). Christians are holy souversors who have not here been permanent home but are journeying through the earth on their way to the sternal home in the heavens. Our souversors should not constrain us to the mastle of conduct consistent with our high ceiling. 2. Behavior from beauty taints (v. 11). The term taints includes the entire army of unclearn force springing from our cultural natures. They are eminent and are not against the soil. The Christian should not be under the sway of carmial passion. 3. Behavior as pilgrims (v. 15, 17). While the Christian's true charity is in heaven he has a responsibility as a citizen on the earth. 4. Obey all requirements of civil conduct.
Fidelity to Christ is by loyalty to civil authority. The inbuilt sense of government and graciously submits to those in authority over him regardless of the form of government. The sense of government and the Lord's free man—not through service vile. Government even of a low order is better than amaney. 2. Honor all men (v. 17). 3. Honor the image of God and therefore give honor to him. This applies to all relations wherein we touch human life. 4. Honor the image of God of faith in Jesus Christ.

The flesh has so long and away over the life. God is battled to the rest of the believer's energy. Looking back upon a wanted life in serving the lusts of the life will move more time to serve such a master.
5. The attitude of the world toward the one who separates himself from the world. The world speaks evil of those who not will go its way. The world not only wonders at the life of the Christ but also pleasures, but will be upon him nickname and reproach.

Christ gave men a new law, and that law was love. Some will say that law was no new law. From the be-love of Christ, some will say that love, but still love an interpreted in Christ was a new law. It was new in the power and purpose of it. Christ was the passion of it, and the passion of it, and the power of it—out of it the golden waters which sanctified and glorified human life, the nightest, for known's man.

"And some fell upon good ground"
The Sower, in the parable, cast his seed to the winds of heaven.
That which landed among the stones, the thorns and in the barren places, perished.
Only the seeds which reached the good ground had a chance to grow.
The modern advertiser does not strew his seed of salesmanship to the winds.
He plants it carefully in the "good ground"—in the places where because of favorable conditions it has a chance to bear a harvest of consumer results.
He uses newspaper advertising because through the newspapers he covers completely by the markets which he knows, upon careful investigation to be right places for his product to flourish.

the things asked were the immediate removal of white militia from these camps where they carried the rides, the provision of proper eating, the provision of water, and the inclusion tables, seating arrangements, Sickly Island and Dischurch, the only location in the area where the establishment of auxiliaries to the Red Cross composed of colored men and women in the camps where they were not functioning and that these committees be furnished with the necessary rehabilitation committees located in the different states or counties, so that fair dealing with them may be assured.
The commission reported health in the camps excellent, but six inmates having died, with very little sickness. Food everywhere was excellent. It found no camps where refugees were being detained but censured strongly Greenville, Miss., where W. A. Percy, a former senator of the state, has assumed the role of a dictator, and issued peremptory orders affecting Negro refugees. A colored committee headed by C. B. Young and Levy Chappelle, is now co-operating with Percy, who insists the daily pepers misquoted his orders. But the commission asked that, while it had been impossible to prove they were detaining men, a close watch be kept on the situation. This is to be done. At Vicksburg, detectives are carrying or a secret investigation to determine whether a score of non-refugees who when ordered to work around the camp had slipped away, were whipped.
Members of the commission were pleased to learn about the stricken people back to their feet to discover the clear insight which Mr. Hoover has gained into the big job, but that the Red Cross had finished outlining the plans being worked out for rehabilitation, it was clear that mind saw through the whole plantation, tenant and small landowner rage, mind saw through his sympathetic attitude and that he was willing to mind saw through his nomic and unfair. While he showed Cross with 'money given for charity' to do the 'impossible or change the economic system' of the plantation, that a way would be found to assure the tenants and that until a new crop was made, even if such a program took eleven months, Cross would be on aid for the tenants and small Negroes, and as in the flood relief, it will not go through the plantation for liberal credit.

"Some years ago a mulatto went to a small Southern town to establish a school for Negroes. In order not to become persona non grata in the community, I approached the leading white residents for the proval of the enterprise. Upon his visit to one white woman he was invited into her parlor and treated with the usual courtesies shown visitors; but when this woman discovered that he had a smoked chopped up the chair in which he had sat and, after pouring gasoline over the pieces, made a bonfire of them—from a practical viewpoint, insanity means social incapacity. Southern white people afflicted with the Neepont complex now themselves incapable of performing his principal functions. They are, for instance, incapable of rendering just decisions when white and colored people are involved; and their very claim that they know and understand their negroes and the fixed system of ideas regarding him when a sane and just appraisal of the situation would involve the assimilation of new data."

Sisters and Brothers. In Divorce Muddle

Los Angeles, Cal.—Two brothers may not be twins but still be alike under the skin," say two sister divorces who found their husbands to have equally incompatible dispositions to group their children.
"Like fathers like son," is an old proverb, but "like brother, like brother," is a new one, coined by attractive Tena Pearson and Peris Pearson, who married brothers and were in superior court.
According to the two women, the brothers they married turned out to be the same under the skin. Divorce proceedings were instituted.
Mrs. Tena Pearson won her freedom from William Pearson several weeks ago and was in Superior Judge Robert Scott's court today to collect back. Scott's son Mrs. Perin Pearson appeared before Judge J. W. Summerfield to prosecute Olaf E. Pearson on failure to provide for their three children.

But who wants to swallow the horrible stuff, when these wonderful tablets—McCoy's Cod Liver Oil Compound Tablets—contain the same kind of vitamins and so easy to take?
A box of 60 tablets for 60 cents and if any akinny man or woman doesn't gain at least 5 pounds in 30 days—money back. Ask any good druggist anywhere in America.
Be sure and get McCoy's, the original and genuine—reputable druggists won't hand you limitations any more than they will hand you counterfelt money. And don't forget there is nothing on earth so good to make backward, listless, underweight children grow strong.

It will go to this camp will please register at the executive office of the Ava, immediately, as only a limited number of applicants can be accepted. Parents will be given their boys to go may register their names at the same address as the executive office of the Pratton 7265.

Yates Summer School Has Fine Opening
The Yates High summer school opened Monday morning with a good enrollment of youngsters who are taking advantage of the opportunity to attend the summer school during the vacation months of the regular session. During the first week the number has increased considerably from day to day, and present conditions indicate that the number enrolled for this present term will be increased for any preceding summer for any preceding summer. Although the tuition is set at a nominal charge which may be even divided into convenient payments; the same high standard of instruction is being maintained as in the regular summer school. Many children, numbers, definite individual needs are taken into consideration. Many children and subjects need help during the summer in the technique and mastery of those
It is quite interesting to note the purposes served by the special class education department. The elementary students are working to advance themselves an entire half-grade, and five in their regular studies, this year. They are in regular school policy and has been authorized by the school authorities. Such promotions are made up of the opening of the fall term. Many high school pupils are making up their regular advance subjects. In special instantiations in the lower classes of high school work or junior high school. The sum of the opportunity for drill work and for securing good foundation for science lab work.
Casual observers have been impressed with the willingness and encouragement of girls girls have attacked their summer tasks. In practically every case, enrollment has been voluntary on the basis of the student himself. One is safe in predicting that the summer school is likely to be a factor in our educational program.

Gulfport, Miss.,—Because Negroes had been injured from the jury list of the county the entire list of jurors is illuminated by Judge J. A. White. Hearing the verdict, the attorney torney for the defense in the trial of Will Coleman, for the killing of Andrew J. Becker, automobile dealer who was slain April 17, argued that impanelling of a jury from a list from the county was illegal. The jury was illegal and unconstitutional. Judge White agreed saying, "A man's life is at stake and he is entitled to all the protection promised by the constitution including that of the jury." Then ordered Sherriff Frank Duckworth and his deputies to round up a large number of county lists. The trial was adjourned until such time as this new jury list

If It Could Be Harnessed
The enormous energy stored in the winds of the world could run all the factories in the United States for more than 400 years.
BY ALGERNON N. JACKSON, M. D. (For The Associated Negro Press). A physician became greatly celebrated for his success in the art of healing, and he was often asked to make known the secret of his marvelous results in practice. He wrote, "I shall write a book in which all will be told. It will be filled with my will."
WHAT IT WOULD MEAN TO HARNESS THE PURCHASING POWER OF HOUSTON NEGROES
After his death many noted physicians of the day gathered to benefit by the promised revelation. The book was produced and, to the surprise of all, page after page until the very last, contained not a single mark of his name. On a last page were scrolled these words:
For success in practice there are three rules: Keep the patient's head cool, the feet warm, the bowels open.
Constipation is more often due to laziness and carelessness than any physical short coming. A lawyer friend of mine used to often say that good health is intended up the body's bevels open and trusting in the Lord." Such is good advice and which makes it most remarkable, it comes from a lawyer without the usual fee.
As a rule, most people eat too much. This is especially true of our folk. But the great sin against the body is not so much in eating to do so as in allowing the bowels to hold for many days the poisonous products of gluttony. The health of everyone can be preserved if each will see to it that he has a full evacuation of the bowels at least once a day. This is a good habit to form; you will feel better and you will not drive your friends away by an offensive breath. Which always accounts for constipation. A clean bowel leads along the easiest road to health, and everyone can, if he will, go by this path.
There are approximately 60,000 Negroes in the city of Houston. These sixty thousand people buy at least two pairs of shoes a year, at an average cost of at least five dollars a pair. Hence,

Days Becoming Longer
The oft-expressed wish of the busy man that the day were longer is being used to increase the duration of its rate of rotation. It will be some time, however, before we need to increase the rate of rotation because the lengthening of the day is estimated to amount to one-tenth of the day.
These sixty thousand Negroes spend at least three dollars per week per person for food. Hence,
Over Nine Million Dollars is Spent for Food
The cost of clothes to Houston Negroes is at least thirty-five dollars per person. Hence,
Derivation of "Furlong"
Furlong is a furrow-long (one side of a square field 220 yards), containing ten acres.
Over Two Million Dollars is Spent for Clothes At least forty dollars per person per year is the average cost to Houston Negroes for luxuries and amusements. Hence,
Peril From Insects
Insects regarded as harmless to plant life may develop a ravenous appetite for some new crop introduced into their surroundings.
Spectral Ships
The Flying Dutchman, according to the old myth, is a captain named Van Strain, who rescuely explodes an airplane over the heads of South Africa without being able to reach harbor. The idea of a spectral ship is common among seafaring Teutone people. Warmer than ice, the Teutone used the idea in the "Ancient Martian."
Over Two and a Half Million Dollars is Spent for Pleasure
Besides, there are other miscellaneous expenditures. A MINIMUM PURCHASING POWER OF OVER SEVENTEEN MILLION DOLLARS
To Harness this Purchasing Power Would Mean:
First, The thousands of Negro boys and girls passing now through the Houston public schools would find wholesome and profitable employment.
Second, The wealth of Houston Negroes would increase at a rate of at least ten million dollars a year faster than it is increasing at present.
Third, There would develop each year a greater respect for Negroes both by Negroes and by other groups.
Finally, We would be on a surer road to the solution of most of our group problems in Houston.

HOUSTON ELECTRIC COMPANY
JEFF L. ALEXANDER, Manager
IN THE SCHEDULE of street car rates, the first consideration has been given to the regular car rider who depends on our service for most or all of his transportation needs.
Under the new rates, if you ride the street cars twice a day, six days a week, your average fare will be seven and one-tenth cents with the twenty-five-cent nickel pass. This is practically the same as the old cash rate of seven cents or only ten cents per week more than if you purchased tokens.
If you ride fifteen times a week, your average fare will be six and two-thirds cents, and at twenty rides per week—three rides a day—it will be six and one-fourth cents, the same as the old token rate.
For four rides per day, or twenty-eight per week, the average fare will be but five and nine-tenths cents. In other words, the more times you ride each week on the nickel pass, the lower your fare will go.
If you ride the street cars more than ten times per week, the nickel pass will save you money. Ride more for less per ride.

THE HOUSTON INFORMER, SATURDAY, JUNE 18, 1927
WHY NOT ARREST "POLICY GAME" OWNER
Last week we discussed in this column how Negros are made the scape-goats of white criminals and others who want to violate some law or social usage, and we cited at least three incidents, one of which related to the arrest of two Houston Negros in connection with the "policy game" which has been doing a flourishing business in this community for the last several months. During the week another Negro was arrested, and, one reading the account of the arrest and paraphernalia discovered and seized in the arrest and raid, would readily conclude that this game is being operated by Negros for Negros—that it is nothing more or less than a criminal activity. Thus another black man has been made the scape-goat for some "higher-up," and it seem to The Informer that the district attorney's office Harris County grand jury" the constabulary and police officers of this county "the policy game," and arrest him or them, instead of these periodic arrests and convictions of these black underlings and scape-goats. It is beginning to appear as if some crooked work is being done in certain local quarters, or is politics back of all this dogmatic shrimping and "passing the buck" now going merrily up in this community. With all the stool piglets, pimps and informers (we are not alluding to this newspaper), isn't it possible to apprehend the real "villain" in this recent community scourge? Or is it possible to put this policy that, if Negros owned and operated these "policy" devices, the "law" could not put them out of business overnight? If Negros actually owned and operated this gambling instrument, how many persons believe that the law enforcement officers would be able to arrest and检实 and arrest fine?
The Informer is making no charge or accusation, but this paper holds to the opinion that certain local Negroes, who are being employed to fleece and mutilate their racial brothers and sisters out of their hard-earned cash through the operation of the "policy game", are nothing but scape-goats, and that they are merely being employed to extricate somebody else's chestsmuts out of the fire.
GOING AFTER SUPREME PYTHIAN LODGE
At the recent grand lodge session of the Colored Knights of Pythias held in Austin, the editor of The Informer, himself a "brave boy," introduced a resolution to the effect that the Texas grand lodge extend an invitation to the supreme body of the Pythias to attend the next biennial supreme meeting in the Texas jurisdiction; and the grand chancellor was empowered to employ what means may be necessary to bring this august body to the Lone Star State. Under the leadership and guidance of W. S. Willis, grand chancellor, the Texas jurisdiction leads all other Pythian jurisdictions, and The Informer feels that this state deserves this consideration and recognition.
There are at least two cities in Texas (Houston and Dallas) under the leadership and a gathering, and it would be a splendid thing for the order and Texas if the supreme lodge should meet in this state in 1929.
There are many members of the order who have no conception of Texas, nor the members composing the fraternity in this state, neither are acquainted with the type and calibre of people, nor who make up the population of the Lone Star commonwealth.
If a tree is judged by the fruit it bears, then certainly Texas is entitled to a high rating; for her sons and daughters of ebony are national leaders in many fields of human endeavor, and some of them are members of our racial contingent are products of the Lone Star State.
Furthermore, former Texans are not the only people doing big things in this country, for we have plenty within our domain yet who are accomplishing big things and demonstrating to the world the importance of our ability to consummate a constructive and far-reaching program.
Texas has many Negroes of wealth, culture, education and refinement; men and women of letters, science, art and professions, and its colorful leadership compares favorably with that of any American city. The state has no other man who visits Texas and observes for himself what the black race is doing in this state, can leave its confines without admitting the greatness of the state and its ebony-hued sons and daughters. Prejudice generally obtains where misunderstanding is rife, and when people understand each other better, meet and mingle on a common level, much of the prejudice is dissipated, and new prejudice is built. Not only will the supreme lodge of Pythians bring to our state and people much that will be helpful and beneficial to our group and the social order, but the supreme body and its constituents will also be mutually benefited and helped. The Informer of Texas will be the most faithful of the Traitors, holding their next biennial convention in the Lone Star jurisdiction.

FLOOD DISASTER A
"HELP" TO NEGROES
By WILLIAM PICKENS
(By the Association, Nassau, Pa.)
As soon as we heard that the Mississippi river had decided to get out of bounds this year, like every other state, we were South. We knew exactly what was going to happen to the colored people there without waiting to see it happen, and we immediately wrote the president of the United States and warned him that these things would happen unless the national government exerted some control over them, by appointing some courageous colored men, responsible to the United States government, to look after the Negroes of that Mississippi Valley.
Well, the president wrote us that he was sending our letter on to the Red Cross and the "dicatter." You see, our president is a very cautious person. He doesn't want that one's name of his business. Then the somebody to whom the president sent the letter, wrote us that he was going to be very careful to thru several other evolutions, until finally got a long and very heavy quarters, Memphis, Tenn., signed by the president, or of flood relief. It is a good and frank letter, encouraging in its disclosure that it contains the information we call it, and assuring us that the treatment received by the Negroes in this disaster is "much better" than the Negroes under normal conditions." The most impressive thing about the greatest disaster, actually the greatest regions, is an IMPROVEMENT on conditions of its Negroes under no conditions of its Negroes under no conditions of need be written: that one sentence is complete commentary on the "civilization"
And that does not prove that the Negroes are being treated well, now that they are being treated with relative value. We have just read from a daily paper of paper of Greenwood, the perfect paper of "informational" for the colored refugees; Negro women and girls and guarded; Negro women and girls and receive any rations that unless they have no man in the family, "which fact is not known to them," who is apt to know least about colored families, and where there is a dollar a day for a work (for women, a dollar a day, for dollars and ten cents a day), a dollar a day for their any rations, whatever the number of the Red Crescent in other words, the Red Crescent is being Negro men to work for white people workers; Negroes and only white men are to be conscripted to unload and to work for the provisions for everybody, etc.
In other words, the flood and the Bad Cross are to be used to reduce the Rain Cross and make them in any way more dependable in favor of their "good white loot." The difference is better than the "normal condition" or the "normal condition" is plain hell.
RE-FORGING AMERICA "BI-RACIALISM"
By William Pickens
(For The Associated Negro Press)
Lethrop Stoddard has written a book, *Forgiving America*, and the two chapters, *Bringing Color* and *B-Racialism* is a nice book to apply to our disregurable past, but it does not endure—and then shows over and over again that he does not think so. For Pickens, the book must be good, having not the brassier tone that *Narrogr* travel accommodation must be good, having not the brassier tone that *Narrogr* travel accommodation must be good, having not the brassier tone that they must be equal. He knows that separate and equal accommodations for blacks in a contraction in terms that if Negroes were equal, they could not at the same equals, they could not of as "separate" even on public
Like Kelly Miller, he thinks that the school district and work for racial segregation. He resurrects the old chimera of "back chin" education, "just adjustment" is just a school adjustment.
He believes that racial intermarriage should be made a crime at law and he expresses the fear that under such new color women might "blacken" men. He evidently does not know Mississippi and how the "faw" there intermarries with the "white" once more, what whites do once more what whites do. One of his arguments for law against intermarriage is that it is his argument for it. His book is filled with that information and the poor fellow still imagines that the terrible restless mulatto that the Negro opposes in selection which the Negro opposes in employment under-man in America. Poor white men. The mulatto is his Frankenstein.—The mulatto is his Frankenstein.—Nowhere does Stoddard even mention the under-man fact: that all the economic basis the desire of the stronger to live as much as possible in the white world is the economic advance of the Negro the economic advance of the Negro the inter-racial situation not
Stoddard tries bluff as vigorously as Kelly Miller tries sophistry to force the Negro to accept segregation. He speaks of “explosions that will be terrible for the Negro”: he pictures the white man as an admirable beast who will brook no interference with his desires and his passions. He says that the Negro must accept segregation—and he shows that he fears that the Negro will not accept segregation. His fears are wiser than he is.

BISHOP CAREY IN HIS ELEMENT
(For The Associated Negro Press)
Bishop Carpe, did not desert the church to go into politics. Some, while ago he did desert politics to join the church, who join everything these days, has joined the chorus of pietistas who committed a crime by accepting a job and leaving his place in the church as a politician—was a politician he got into the bishopic, was politician he was bishop, and was politician he was bishop, and comes to an end—a politician, first, last and all the time. If he had been politician he never could have "captured" the bishopic; he had to outdo all the other politicians in the position after that same position in the church.
Now, the time for Kelly and the rest of the pack to have made their cry was when Carey "deserted" politics for the church. That was the call to the Bishop of The Bishop is now coming back home, just where he longs. Commissioner Carey is much more appropriate (for him) than Bishop Carey. He will do just as much good for his "race" and for all others in the Chicago office as he would do in the office of a bishop—more good, we think. And so far, do a sight more of good for Carey. He would not be failure on either job.—but we wish to predict that he will make more money in four years of commissioner than he would make in the school. And those who will lose the cash which will make as commissioner are much better able to lose it than are those who would lose the cash which he would make as bishop.—That's stripping the truth naked.
But, there are many more men who can fill his place in the A.M. E. Church than there are who can fill his place in the city of Chicago. He can be of immense service to Negroes as commissioner of civil service in Chicago—if he tries to.
But, there are no a preacher of the same right to ahead in the government (and the emoluments) of his country and city as have other folk? It is an outworn superation that preachers must eschew politics. If Christians and bishops are better than other people politics will be better when we get more Christians and bishops into it.
We are not only glad that the bishop went into this political office, but we are also glad that he stayed and be mayor of Chicago and pick out some others from an amass of people whom we would recommend that Commission jobs in his department. They would not be such a big part of them, whom we are poor ministers would be.

NEGROES OF NEW YORK AND CHICAGO
(By KELLY MILLER, Howard University, Washington, D. C.)
Some time ago, I wrote a release on the Chicago Negro. I tried to point out there the singular achievements of the colored contient of the Windy City. New York has now become the Negro metropolis of the world. The lowest estimate gives the metropolis two hundred thousand acres, but the highest estimate gives it a rival. By tradition, the New York Negroes have every advantage. A considerable number of the old citizens trace their descent from Revolutionary days. They have enjoyed, in the main, essential advantages of political and civil equality with other citizens. The fullest educational opportunity is provided by the schools. The anti- slavery contest waged fiercely therein and stirred the energies of colored brother to blood sympathy with his kinmen in bondages. The original population has been gradually re-enforced, and suddenly augmented, until it stands at the head of the column of all municipalities.
In the two cities, alike, the race is sharply segregated in clearly defined areas. The black belt contains ninety per cent of Chicago's colored population. Harlem contains a like proportion of New York's colored contient, if we may except the Brooklyn group, which for our purposes, may as well be called the African-American group. Of Harlem and Brooklyn are as far apart in all essential ways as those of New York and Philadelphia. When we speak of the Negroes in New York we mean Harlem; just as we mean the South Side when discussing their Chicago counterpart. In both cities they affect to despise segregation, and they have no interest in it. Both groups are derived from their segregated situations, and yet they both shake the impotent fist of defiance when the term is mentioned.
Chicago is a comparatively new city. The Negroes for the most part are newcomers. Although they say that a Negro was the first settler of Chicago, yet the great bulk of the present population, like the wild man from Bornso, has just come to town. The too have had a large measure of the Negro population, and the too have had a large measure of the people without regard to race. Neither group has been subject to the many political and civil restrictions which held their blood brothers
We should naturally expect New York to far outatrip its western rival in any list of comparative accomplishments. But to the chagrin, the people who are the leading members of the American Association of the Library of the Literary and cultural capital of the race heads up in Harlem. The Crisis of Opportunity is the Messenger, our leading monthly magazines, the local media, the New York Times, with its own name.
We should be the Urban League, and the Young Men's Christian Association have their cigarettes to be so many. For the first time, poets, fiction writers and essayists, delights, love, news, and other life-long stories are the great publishing houses are here. The Negro literatist, like their white proletariat, were here and the world of the world. Advocacy and facilities of publication. One might expect that Washington's city with its old city is the town of University, would become the literary and cultural capital of the race. But the place of the atmosphere is not congenial; the political current sweeps everything before the
But New York can lay claim to this cultural ascendency merely as the altus but not as the stimulus of it. Dubois was born in Massachusetts, James Weldon Johnson in Florida, Walter White in Georgia, Pickens in Florida, James Weldon Johnson in Florida, and John Jones in Florida. The Jessie Fauceet in Pennsylvania Randolph in Florida, Owen in North Carolina, and Tobias in Georgia. If Harlem should be stripped of her literary combands, she would scarcely excel her Western rival in cultural attainment.
The political accomplishments of the two groups can hardly be discussed in the same breath nor on the same day. The only outstanding political personages in New York are seen in the case of Hon. Charles W. Anderson, the first leader of the state of New York. The first leader of the state was the Negro had no influence and little interest, and Ferdinand Q. Morton, civil service commissioner, a Tammany appointee. On the other hand, Chicago was the only leader of the state of New York. The first leader of the position directly to Negro votes and influence. The list is too long toӏ enourish. Negro officials function in the highest and most vital features of the state of New York. The state of New York is not so far as the capital fact; in Chicago he is an active political factor. He sponsored the present city government, and as much as any other element, was responsible for the state of New York. The state of New York is the only major project in the municipal campaign, the victorious government is not unmindful of the just claims of its black allies and rewards them with the unknowable rights command. Similar results in New York are hardly thinkable.
The Negroes in Chicago take full political advantage of their segregated status. The American community of politics has been the most扇目,the dominant element. In Harlem, the United States was the most�ent to the local white boss. In Chicago, they play a role in the field of the state of the United States. The white boss has a great philosophy. Whenever one Negro loses, another wins. In New York, if the Negro loses the white man wins, which is practically all of the time.
Chicago will doubles send a Negro to Congress within the next four or six years. The stage is already set. Congressman Madden has stood so long as to take the place of the United States. The first of the time was the dominant element of the country. The Windy City has rained the ground of color. He has also gained such prominence in national affairs that he can be of greater service in some ways. He has been a block of blacks who are more likely to be resented in Congress by one of its own blood who will peak with the power of the state. He will be a part of the country. He will always not merely South Side Chicago, but the continent. Although the future is not just the numbers, it has neither the leadership nor the coherence that would justify a like prediction within any calculable time.
Economically, Chicago is as far ahead as it is politically. The Windy City has now trying hard to organize such a financial establishment. Chicago boasts of the finest Negro hotels in the world. At least two of these are the most-knownจีนอีกที่แสดงที่จะสูงก่อนที่จะลดลงสูงก่อนที่จะลดลงสูงก่อนที่จะลดลงสูงก่อนที่จะลดลงสูงก่อนที่จะลดลงสูงกอื่น. The city has been a very strong and stronger who reaches New York after midnight will be lucky to find where to lay his weary head, if perchance the Y. M. C. A. happens to be full. I am not sure that the city will be so good as to be as backward in business as the two hundred thousand Harlemites. There is not a single social institution of any importance, outside of the churches, the public of the city. The city has been the most-knownจีนอีกที่แสดงที่จะสูงกอื่น. The city has been the most-knownจีนอีกที่แสดงที่จะลดลงสูงกอื่น.
M. C. A. and the Y. W. C. A. established and overseemed by white folks.
Harlem has recently developed a number of great churches; but not to be outdone. Chicago has gone her one better place. It has never heard of a place as handed down to them through initiative. Very few of the people who are�ared down to them through initiative. Very few of the people who are a church. They take over the abandoned houses of worship and the city build a church. The Chicago has just taken over the greatest Negro church beneath the skies.
The Negroes in Harlem are for the most part cliff dwellers. Home ownership is relatively small as compared to Chicago. One walks for a straight stretch of street, and the buildings are these, occupied by their Negro indwellers. If Harlem is the "Nigger Heaven," Chicago certainly inhabits the thoroughfares which more nearly approach the streets of the New Jerusalem.
To cap the climax, Chicago over matches Harlem as the seat of ecclesiastical life. The church, the pastor, the historians, has his cathedral here. I suppose that Bishop Carvey, if he decided to cling to both spiritual and temporal power, will rank first among his ecclesiastical colleagues. The Methodist Episcopal Church, if I might go on forming an indefinite church which Harlem would come out second best. Wherin he secret of the strength of this lusty Samson of the West? Must the eastef East forever lag behind? Let our Negro social thinkers ponder over the tale of these
RULES FOR
HAPPY MARRIAGE
Seven rules for a happy marriage are prescribed by Judge Joseph Sahabt of Chicago, in the current issue of Collier's Witness. It records the history of Collier's Witness and what is said to be the world's record in having presided over 22,000 divorce cases. "There must be rules for every game," says Judge Sahabt. "You will be smoother if you remember that in a sense you are being incarcerated; that you are being sent to a new viewpoint, entering a new viewpoint, entering a new viewpoint." These seven rules contain the es.
OPINIONS
sence of a successful marriage:
1. Don't be a matrimonial Babbitt.
Keep in step with your partner's mind body and soul.
2. Vulnerability and successful marriage are moral enemies.
Compromise. Toxin-toxin that darnes to four of them.
3. To have mothers-in-law is fortunate, but to live with them is dangerous, and to criticize them.
4. Find out your beloved's ideas of matrimonial ethics before the weddin of your life.
5. Park your past at the altar—and not in the courtyard.
6. Courtship is the prep school for the college of matrimony. The real deal is the bengoon and a lament.
