KELLY MILLER AND DEAN WILLIAM PICH Elks Launch Health Survey NEGRO BARES DIXIE OUTRAGES We do not mean to say nor infer that Negro lawyers, physicians and medical carecago, Detroit and other Northern cities; but the field is over-crowded and in need of more training, those succeeding who have the "longest line" or "best pull". Even with all its injustices and inequities, the black clientele fortile field for Negro business and professional members of the Negro race better opportunity for service and professional members of the North and East. We are lacking fundamentally wrong and defective with any educational system or training which inculcates into the minds of the products a desire to serve and a desire to ago the line of least resistance and thereby fall to render the type of service which the race diligently to urgently and woulful need. The Negro race needs more men like himself to equip his people elected to endure and suffer the hardships with his own people in Egypt, security, luxury and care, and ease incident to a life in Pharaoh's place and court. Finally, he only lives who serves humanity best, and the true and accurate test of a successful career is in the social practice, in the enjoyment of the ephemeral things of this world, nor even in the full and free liberties of service in the constitutional rights, in the real barometer of a successful career is to what extent one can help those in need of the services to render to render. Rather than sociability, should be rather than vengeance, vading influence among dominant Negroes who are capable of performance and social betterment.

The Alliance Israelite under the leadership of the Palashas and to open schools for them. There are about 50,000 Palashas in Abyssinia, which has a total population of about 100,000. The Palashas almost the only working population of the country. Some engage in farming and others are are engaged in agriculture adjacent to the native Abyssinians who do some farming, but who for the most part are the soldier of the Palashas. The Palashas have a dissonant social dissension. Almost existed between the Palashas and the native Christians of the Palashas has also become more favorable since Dr. Felicovich has exerted his influence in outskirts of the colored belt of New York. They keep to themselves, however, and make no approaches to the Jewish. They identify themselves with the other Negro Jews in their vicinity. In fact, Palashas shan the Negro Jews in the Christians. The Palashas do not claim to be Jews. They do not pretend to be Jews. They are Palashas or Christians. They are Palashas or Christians. and that there are no substantiating records of vital statistics. All members of the commission did agree, however, that the infant mortality rate is twice that of the whites, and that the colored homicide rate is also much higher. He noted that no conclusions were reached on whether mission that colored health conditions, so far as relating to sanitation and hygiene, were improved or contrainshe, he stated that they are improving and offered as proof, the records of the American Society for the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company. Dr. Jackson said: "Conservative states have not been able to protect America are not alarmed by the present mortality rate among colored Americans, and health cannot be considered in terms of economics, environment and education." He generally agreed that there is no such thing as true racial immunity, or racial suspicion in disease, except in a relative sense."

The first task of Solomon after his coronation was the building of a temple to his father, David. In his preparation for this task he secured wood from King Hiram of Israel, the stones he used for the temple, and the skilled workmen also from King Hiram. It was located on Mount Moriah (Ul Chron. 3.1). The suitable location was near the Lord and appeared here to Abraham. Its dimensions were 90 feet long, 30 feet wide, and 45 feet wide. The temple was built on the laver, the golden candlesticks and chariubus. The dedication of the temple was arranged to take place at an altar. The dedicatory services consisted of: 1. Bringing Up the Ark (vv. 1-11) The ark of the covenant was typical of the Jewish temple through Jesus Christ (John 1:14). The ark was God's holy dwelling place.

He points out to the people that God had chosen David to be king, yet for certain reasons he would not allow him to build the temple, promising that God would build it, that the work was done, the temple was built and the ark of the covenant was in its place, they could be assured that God had raised him up in the room for his father. Theoloemus' Dedicatory Prayer (fr. 22.22). On the strength of the covenant promises, he invokes His presence ably and exhorts the people to have those hearts perfect before God, walking in His commandments and statutes.

Seven persons were forced to close to the streets; Mrs. Elizabeth Lath, 38, and Mrs. Frances Lamb, were taken down over ladder by the firemen.

The players are Brown, Allen, Howard, Alabama State Normal and Clark in the order named during the season, and the Tuckeegee Tiger will be in Atlanta on November 19. It is expected that this game will attract football fans from all sections of the state. Talladega will have Cooper, the forward passing ace, in the backfield, and James in the fundamentals of pass- THE HOUSTON INFORMER, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 10, 1927 Taukegue is not expected to be as formidable last year, but its backfield, halfback, halfback halfback, Ernest T. Bailley, will no doubt keep the Tigers in the run-up to the playoffs. It is hoped the Tigers will be serious contenders for the conference crown.

There is an abundant educational fund in which the Negro shares fairly well. The graded teachers are well paid in all parts of the state. High schools of four years duration and standard standards are maintained in every city of considerable Negro population. The high schools of the state of Washington; although in two instances they are known as Kelly Miller high schools. The state authorities are alert to the requirements of the education of the Negro. The legislature has just appropriated $800,000 for the state college at Prairie View. I addressed one thousand eager, anxious teachers in attendance in summer session to improve their preparation for their life work. The requirements are being steadily raised. Teachers from other northern institutions are being trained in other northern institutions. Texas and North Carolina take the lead among Southern states in the field of education. The fraternities work in close sympathy and affiliation with the church. The prominent minister is called upon to preach the annual sermon when all of the pomp and glory of the order is on display. The funeral always takes place from the church where the minister has the conspicuous role. Membership in the orders is limited. The sermons are read in the church creed. The church and the fraternal orders are both calculated to appeal powerfully to the imagination of a simple-minded and highly impressionable folk. In Texas, as elsewhere, the Negro spends extravagantly upon the burial of the dead, but pays little or no attention to the upkeep and beautification of the graveyard when it is opened before, and after, the funeral. Why is it that the Negro neglects its burial ground? I will return to the consideration of this query at another time. I had intended to take up the question of secret orders as a field furnishing an outlet for the talent for leadership and power on the political domain. But this also will be taken up at another time. I have still another week in Texas—why not wait until my literary interest has been observational? One does not have to eat a whole cake to tell the story. New York has always been a symphony of the softer woman, all the climes of Sodom and Gomorrah; all the decendence of Ninawa and Kekuk, into belly Harlem, the synonym for cabarats; the "numbers," Negro剧院s; night bands, wasted youth—in short, "Nigger Heaven." The popular, concep- tion, one sleeps all morning, parades all afternoon, drinks, drinks, and gambles all night and only speaks the name "Nigger." As a matter of fact, there are more churches than in any other city in the world. There are more churches in Harlem than there are cabarats. There are more churches than you will find in smaller cities. Every city block in Harlem or even four churches.

According to information imparted to the Informer, all the employees, except one, of a certain local colored concern are slated to be "thrown out" of a certain local white mercantile store, in the event any of these black Houstonians enter this store to purchase an article or commodity. If The Informer is not in error, it appears to us that this same "throw 'em out" store, one of whose directing heads made the answer the nantier hostile reception which awaits this particular group of black citizens, was frantically striving some time back to interest some of these same colored citizens in acquiring some of its stock. Every time the door of this particular colored concern opened a stock-selling representative from this "throw 'em out" store was seeking entrance and vainly endeavoring to plict the financial and moral support of these colored citizens, who are not wanted nor desired in this store now since a few local Negroes fell for this salesman's pleasing palver and invested some of their money in this white store. Of course, the editor of The Informer did not purchase any of the stock, for he feared the "gift-bearing Greeks" and already it appears as if his fear and suspicion were well founded. Furthermore, word has been conveyed to the editor of The Informer that this same "throw 'em out" store will advertise in this paper any more, as if said "throw 'em out" store is refusal or failure to advertise in the columns of The Informer will bankrupt the paper, or force it out of business! In looking over our advertising records we discovered that this same "throw 'em out" store, whose slogan a few months ago was "sell 'em stock" and "invite 'em in", has not inserted six aids in The Informer during the entire career of the newspaper; and that the first of this brief series of advertisements did not appear in The Informer until the stock-selling campaign was launched here by this "throw 'em out" white mercantile establishment among the Negro citizenry. As to the advertisements of this local "throw 'em out" white mercantile institution time the date, we found in The Informer that they were merely being placed for strategic reasons—not because this store desired to advertise in a Negro newspaper, but rather due to the fact that this was somewhat of a novel and shrewd stroke to interest Negroes in buying stock in this anti-Negro concern. In the present "throw 'em out" policy of this local white store is not surprising to The Informer (even though a few local Negroes are reported to have purchased some of the stock placed on the local market); for the policy of this white mercantile institution has been rather hostile to blacks since the early 1960s, and the fact that the stock placed on the market is effectively because she endeavored to witness an exhibit on one of the floors of the store. The Informer wonders how these local colored stockholders feel now, with this "throw 'em out" edict being issued by one of the directing heads of their store. In this connection we are interesting to note what reason for the violence upon certain colored citizens and customers of this "throw 'em out" store, will have upon the Negro patrons of this local white mercantile establishment! NORTH SEEKING TEXAS MINISTERS Despite what some think and say about the "colored brother" in Texas, judging from recent calls tendered some of the leading Negro Baptist pastors of the Lone Star State commonwealth, it appears that the eyes of the North and East are turned towards Texas for ministerial lights. On the heels of the acceptance of the pastorate of churches in Cleveland, Ohio, and Chicago, Illinois, by Revs. A. L. Boone and C. C. Harper, pastors of the M. Gilead Baptist Church of Fort Worth and St. John's Baptist Church of Dallas, respectively, comes the report that the Metropolitan Baptist Church at Washington, D. C., pastored several years by the late Dr. Norman, has issued a call to Rev. E. L. Harrison, pastor of Antioch Baptist Church of Houston. This latest report anent the Harrison call could not be confirmed before the reverend left the city for the national gathering at Detroit, Mich.; neither could it be ascertained whether the local pastor will accept the call to the nation's capital. Only last summer of the leading Baptist churches in Florida introduced a call to Rev. J. Newton Jenkins, pastor of New Hope Baptist Church at Waco, but the good reverend declined the call and remained in Waco, where he has done and is still doing a wonderful piece of constructive, Christian work. Not only is Texas a large state in resources and dimensions, but this state boasts of producing some outstanding characters in the fields of religion, education, science, arts, commerce, athletics and politics. With some of the best prepared ministers being drawn to other states to work and, with a death of real ministerial leaders in the particular demination in Texas, the America's Greatest Weekly Newspaper Informer takes this occasion to remind the young men of the race, especially of this denomination, that here is a wonderful field for the greatest earthly service—for "the harvest truly is great, but the labourers are few. It seems to be up to them to pray the Lord of the harvest that He will send forth workers into the field to gather in the sheaves, and to preach a gospel and live a life that will give the world the true and proper conception of "the fatherhood of God on brotherhood of man." (By KELLY) This release is Not one of my re neither did I until northwest border development which THE OLD DIXIE ORDER CHANGETH! That the old order in the South is changing, is evidenced by an editorial from the Birmingham News and Age-Herald (white), Birmingham, Alabama, which is reproduced herewith in this issue of The Informer. In fact, this editorial is most unusual, and the attitude assumed by the editor of this leading white Southern newspaper marks the first time in the history of a Nordic journal of the South (as far as the Informer can recall), when any white editor has taken such a broad position. When certain members of the Colored Knights of Pythias of Alabama sought to discredit the grand lodge officers of that state and destroy the order, resorting to court proceedings, this white daily newspaper carried several articles concerning the case; and the news items which appeared in the News were misleading and damaging to the order and race. The news articles was admitted by the court and the attention of the editor of the Birmingham News, published in the city where court action was invoked or sought, was called to the misrepresentations printed in the columns of his newspaper, which injured and damaged the Pythian order in that state, as well as the directing heads of the fraternity, in a lengthy editorial this white Southern editor apologizes for the misleading captions and news articles, and commends the order and its leaders for their contributions towards the elevation and betterment of the race and social order. Despite the fact that many of the white daily newspapers are always carrying news articles and items, often without the least scintilla of truth about Negroes and Negro organizations, movements, et cetera; and, despite the fact that many of these white Southern editors and publishers are often apprised of these erroneous news stories and damaging articles—sometimes written by some "cub" reporter who wants to be witty or have some fun at the expense of the Negro race—this is the first time, to our knowledge where a white editor in Dixie has had the courage, backbone and Christian manhood to admit his error and make an open and public apology for his misrepresentations. When it is borne in mind that Honorable Thomas J. Heffin, United States senator from Alabama whose anti-Negro attitude is nationally known, is vice-president of the corporation publishing the Birmingham News and Age-Herald, rated as "The South's Greatest Newspaper," one can easily see that the editor of this Southern publication has truly been converted, and undoubtedly must be an ardent follower of the Lowly Nazarene! The Informer has never been able to comprehend how white editors and publishers, who profess to be Christians and followers of the fair-minded and unprejudiced Christ, can continue to fill their newspapers with scurrilous articles and base misrepresentations against their colored brother, and not be pricked by the truth of their own public apology when such matters are called to their attention. Only a man with a big heart can apologize for a wrong perpetrated upon his fellowman, and whatever may be said to the contrary about Alabama and its white citizenry, the Birmingham News and Age-Herald editor has pointed the way to all editors and publishers of his race whose newspaper a misrepresents, either wittingly or unwittingly, certain Negroes and Negro organizations, movements, et cetera. Veryly. It augments a new day in the South and a new epoch in interracial relations when the editor of a leading white daily newspaper has the moral courage and Christian heart to correct misstatements appearing in his publication concerning a purely Negro organization; and here's hoping that his tribe will increase. Selah! In Justice To Colored Pythians And Their Excellent Organization abundant proof of its beneficial influence upon the race here in Alabama, not alone as relates to the insurance benefits paid to the families of the victims, but also to the economically. It appears that this organization during the last several years has made a distinct contribution to education by furnishing school supplies and time to color boys and girls in the dance. We are informed that Tuggle Institute, one of the most useful and helpful institutions for the Negro youth in the state, has been for many years a source of benefits from this organization. Birmingham, Ala. News (white): It has been the uniform policy of the Birmingham News to be absolutely fair to all persons, both in its editorial and in its publication. Umaha. This course we have always endorsed to follow, not only as a matter of policy, but also as a matter of principle. A short time ago certain proceedings were filed in the Chancery Court of Alabama in connection with the former general of Alabama against the colored order of Knights of Pytheas, seeking to place that organization in the hands of a receiver. In reporting the fact that such a prosecution was made, the witnessing used in conspicuous baselines the words: "NEGRO K. OF P. LODGE GOES BANKRUPT." There was nothing in the article which followed that in any way justified the headlines; and the News surely rejected the testimony. The mistaken was, of course, wholly unintentional; and now that the news was corrected to the correct error and to do what we can to counteract any unjust or unfavourable impression that may An organization that is doing real good and rendering worthwhile service in its own field of endeavor for the advancement of its particular mission is the general welfare of the state, not be overestimated. Any agency that makes for the genuine good of a particular group among us contributes to the general welfare of all. Certainly, no self-seeking persons, they be inside or outside the organization to destroy it. What matters it that one member or another with ambition to serve the state may not be chosen by those who have the right to choose? The organization of the men in the race in the state, who for many years have served faithfully and sacrificed their municipalities. The men that live and their people and their various common goods must always count in their It appears, too, that in the court proceedings referred to there was no claim not assertion, and the slightest suggestion of such a condition. On the contrary, it was stated in open court that the organization had several years there has been a steady financial increase, and that a recent report by the Bureau of Insurance of the State Department totals over $600,000, while its liabilities total only about $17,000,000. That the organization is exceptionally strong financially. The case was dismissed by the court, which action was not asserted, nor the logical outcome of the proceedings. It is quite safe to state that any praleworthy movement or effort made by our colored people for the advancement of our people always has the support and assistance of the best white people of the country to the colored Knights of Python who wishes for continued growth and wider opportunity for the good it is endeavoring to do for its people. May God bless them thrive and go on doing good forever! A fraternal benefit society, such as the colorful organ groups, has a strong moral support of all right-thinking members. Its field of operations among the colored population is the most important. OPINIONS Cimbee's Ramblings (By KELLY MILLER, Howard University, Washington, D. C.) This release is done in Wichita Falls, Texas, which in turn is done in oil. Not one of my readers out of a hundred knows where Wichita Falls is; neither did I until my itinerary brought me here. It is located near the northwest border of the state and was brought into prominence by the oil company that brought a boom to so many Texas towns. By some strange concomitance, oil companies owned by owners receive the unual royalty which has suddenly transformed many a family from poverty to affluence. But in too many instances they were not ready for their newfound wealth. One hears of but few instances in Texas where it has imminured to substantial personal or racial benefit. Either the oil company has advantages or extravagance and poor judgment bring on the usual results.
