Those who have the right conception of Christ, who have the trouble in the realm of science, philosophy or ethics. 2. Christ's communication (v. 17). 3. Christ himself blessed. The evidence that Peter was blessed that he was in spiritual touch with the heavenly Father. His conception was not revealed by flesh and blood. 3. Peter's blessing (v. 18). Christ declared that he should be, become a foundation stone in his church. Christ Himself is the chief person of Christ built. Christ's person and Messiahship were confessed by Peter, and on the basis of his person and mission and prophets (B. 2.20). All believers are living stones of this house (I Peter 2.5). Peter's Restoration (John 21:15-19). Peter grievedlessly in deepening the Lord, but he made confession, and he repented. The Lord tenderly dealt with his striving discipline and restored him. In his restoration Jesus brought to the people the three times asked for his ministry. Love is the preeminent gift for Christian service. To show that he is well at three times asked the question, "Love thou me?" He not only asked the question three times to show the supersede of love, but to show that there are three classes of persons demanding His service, and that these classes need to be well as food adapted to their state. 1. These begin in Jesus' life. "Feed my children," he said in Christ's structure. It applies to the surroundings, influences and examples. 2. The mature one. "Feed my children." This needs to mean "shepherd my sheep." The mature class of believers need correction and discipline. They need correction and discipline. The 3. Aged Christian, "Feed My Sheep," "feed" here is much the same as in the first case. This is a service greatly needed today. In many places the old people are greatly rejected. All provision is made for the old people and they need in service to the old folk.

I am sure that you are aware of the fact that your supporters are appalled by the decision of the presiding chairman to throw the Baptist Missionary and Educational Convention into Ft. Worth, she said. Wm. McDonald of Ft. Worth, she said, fought our Baptist leaders for three decades or more; the distinguished minister died fooly of our denomination and the silent financial force that gave impetus to the insurrection at Sherman. In it that you are determined to make us spend thousands of dollars to help you know, it is natural for us to defend ourselves when dragged into the war. You are silling to let a fair-minded public know facts and see for themselves, for truth will win its way. You will give your own attorney who were defended your way before you can hear the appeal you want a receiver* and with your own attorney you can be called all the confusion at Paris and Sherman. Our proposal for peace conference is sincere why continue to head the Texas Baptists? why not wait and see? It may be that the appellate court of the R. M. and K. Convention. If your peace letter means more than a grindstaff and for-public Haynes Discusses Bastrop Parley; Harrison Praised At the conclusion of divine service, he attended Johnsons Pastay Hall, and met timely touching the work and the leaders of the community, principal of Hastory High School, one of the frontline workers in the war, and of welcome and the choir, made the welkin ring with their sweet voices, and the speaker, under the guidance of President L. White. Dr. U. S. Keeling responded with his characteristic manner. Dr. T. E. George Jr., the newly elected pastor of Hastory, who brought with him some 30 or 40 of his stalwart members, broke the speaker covered himself with glory. President Harrison spoke to the officers of affairs as they relate to the forces of the B. M. and E. Convention and the $2.15 was on hand on the table. It was, indeed, a high day, not only the highest family of Texas. The following constitute the perzen- charter provision: Harrison, Keeling, Haynes, Jordan, Green, Johnson, Mr. Hayson, Harrison, Johnson, Mr. Curry, White, and Water (13). Wed- nesday night a packed house played W. P. Hicks and S. M. Pendergrain of the M. Roe choir in the occasion. Following the enchanting music of the M. Roe choir, E. L. Harrison, Dr. U. S. Keeling defi- nition the manses "Bastard Beginnings." De Keeling was cheered to the echo throughout his life in the very embrace of wilt, humility and logic. The people gave attentive care to fall from his lip. We doff our hat to Dr. Keeling and say, "Go on." He and his colleagues augmented pulpit orator, delivered the closing sermon, and the profound message of Life," will live and bear fruit, henceforth. As he drove home to the church, he smiles played on the faces of the people like diamonds on the brow of a closing remarks, expressing the joy and happiness of being guests of the saints of Mt. Rose Baptist Church and sentiment, if you are really in earnest and will face the facts of the truth of the Baptist mission in Texas, I will bless you. Accept, dear brother, the renewed assurance of my highest consideration. Sincerely yours, E. ABILINGTON WILSON President, B. M. & E. Convention. THE HOUSTON INFORMER, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 22, 1929 Pastor Haynes, by Dr. Keeling, Harrison and Johnson, electrified the church by preaching the good accomplished in the name of Him who said: "Go ye to preach the gospel to every creature. Peace and happiness prevailed in the church, the visitors left for their several homes looking backward. Under Pastor Haynes, the Mt. Koe Baptist Church and the people of Bastrop as they arrived in ner in which the board was entertained. Among the visitors, aside from those already mentioned, were: Mr. Koe Baptist son and daughter; Mr. and Pulcher son and daughter; Mr. and Mr. Will Wilson; Mr. and Mr. John Franklin, J. E. Coleman, Henry Lewis, Mr. Grant, Mr. Dotson, Mr. and Miss Franklin, Slimas and many others from Austin. Forgetting the past, we have our church, Dallas, Texas, Dr. W. L. Dickson, pastor, to make the appointment of greeting Thursday before the fourth Sunday, climax the climax. Bird on the roof, don't allow the old flag that Jesus unfurled to the gentle breezes just before he enters into an airplane in which to make his departure from this, to our eternity, marching orders, to trail in the dust. "CIMBEE" VISITS ST.JOHN CHURCH; LIKES SERVICES "CIMBEE" VISITS ST.JOHN CHURCH; LIKES SERVICES (BY CIMBEE) "Well, wife I found the model church, and worshiped there today," she recalled. "Last last Sunday after visiting St. John the Baptist, I found several things which I considered as model. For instance, I thought the singing of the choir; the apparent size of the church; and many more which I could mention of many church organizations. As much as I lated it, I arrived at the church late. It was about 11:30 a.m. and I was sitting in the church and the one nearest McGowen. I was met by an usher, who politely meet that if I went downstairs, I would be able to get a seat closer to the front. In this litle I was sent from the church to give a seat in what is commonly known as the "amen corner." Here I found a very comfortable chair given a seat in what is decided one of the very active member, judging by the number of Sunday school classes in her hands. I found later that the usher must have given me the chair and sat down between me and a friend of this first sister I mentioned, for it was not long before the friend came in and sat down between me and her. My seating space, but a little thing like that didn't worry me, as the last one was very pleasant, a gaze on, and she was very pleasant. When I had been seated and had got my bearings, I found that I had been directed to Mrs. Gertie L. Brooks, was singing. This choir, like a compostion on this occasion of sixteen voices, and was rendering some very appreciative songs from the congregation that were what they usually received, it is not to be wondered at that they were after the singing the assistant pastor arouse and for sentence prayers from the congregation, which is appropriate as being being struck me as being novel and very appropriate, as it gave every one an important role in the missionary or what my church calls the "penny collection" the baskets. Following this choir sang an anthem, which put every 'foot in the audience to moving, beating time along with the rest. When the assistant pastor arose to when the captive lesson, announcing that everybody had been woken up 20th chapter of John, I looked quite "wheepish," and I had "plum" forget to remember the lesson, especially when I saw so many in the congregation opening their Bibles. He met the other Mary, who came early to the septuplet, only to find the body of the man, whom they took to be the garder, man, whom they took to be the garder, accented him, with "Where have you laid the body?" A beautiful lesson was well done. PRESTON AVERS BAPTISTS NEED NEW PRESIDENT PRESTON AVERS BAPTISTS NEED NEW PRESIDENT To the Baptist Missionary and Education Center, we are called the Lord's Work. We are face to face with a great crisis in our conventional work. Never before were we so situated and enforced, hindered in love, fellowship and constructive service as we are now. We have treeners, deacons and Sunday school teachers vided into hostile groups. Suspicion hate and misrepresentation are a serious problem. No true Christian can feel at ease in Zion with an alarming condition. In October, 1927, at the session of the national Convention of Texas, the majority of the Baptist delegates were called to control the minority Baptists who had control of the machine. One of the carinal leaders of the minority priory rule, from church on up and from convention on down. Any member that may be intended or devolved to deflect the congregational or demagogue may be called to the very essence of Baptist principle is to express one's conviction, unhappiness, and disgust. As Parts the minority, under the leadership of a man who was acting as the majority candidate and sent for the majority out and declared the minority candidate president and sent for the majority out and declared the minority candidate out of the church. This action on the part of our brethren, who profess to have the spirit two, made the annoncements, and the St. John on Dowling is a very lovely house of worship, located near the downtown addition to the main auditorium, there is a balcony which runs round the rear of the auditorium, and the chairs. Last Sunday the entire auditorium was filled while in the church, and the church is dredged more. The choir gallery is just behind the restroom, where the choir members may be gathered. The officers of this church organization include some of Houdon's mounts on the church steeple, and membership may be found other men and women of affairs. Among the men, J. P., jasper; J. W., Allen, financial retard; W. S. Coleman, recording act; C. Callin, church librarian; R. Hirsch, president; S. Sundee, chapel E. P. Harper, president B. Y. P. M. Mrs. E. M. Johnson, president home office D. B. Bentley, president man's union. of Christ, has caused much hard feeling and unrest. The majority of the Baptist people of Texas feel that a crooked deal was put over by the miracle of Jesus. From the Paris meeting in 1967, to the Sherman meeting in October, 1988, the Baptist Missionary and Educational Convention moved along, above, still, and unhappy way. No constructive wreck has been done during this period. No defiance were paid, no intelligent Christian leader to lead the breach that was made. Rev. E. L. Harrison, who represents Baptist Missionary and Educational Convention of Texas, has made an honest effort from time to time until and until the crucifixion. At our convention in October, 1928, at Sherman, the minority group, united with Wilson, attempted, by overriding all rules and anguishals of a deblishment by Wilson, attempted by overriding all rules and anguishals of a deblishment by Wilson (Wilson) declared president; not only that, but Rev. E. Arlington Wilson and his advisers went to the police and their advisers brought into court Rev. E. I. Harrison and others for disturbing the convention. He had then arrested and brought into court Rev. E. I. Harrison and others was done because the majority delegates qualified in the church and the convention was opened session of the convention. The Baptist Missionary and Educational Convention is in court. Judge Harew has accused Wilson of the Wilson's faction, but admits that Rev. E. I. Harrison and the majority on appeal in the higher court. REV. W. A. PRESTON, Texarkana, Texas.

JAY President American Department Stores Corporation Average family income $3,150 Average retail purchase, per person 366 Glycine store sales have been found to be: Department stores 35% Grocery stores 28% Furniture stores 22% Man's clothing 5% Women's wear 3% Candy 3.14% Fabricant 1.45% This leaves 25% of expenditures determined. From these figures it may be easily seen that a comparatively low families will support a small retail store.

After all is said and done, it is not a’ question of race, blood or “iin; but ‘merely the will to win—that indomitable spirit that “knows no Alps” and which considers the word “impossible” as the adjective of the weak and spincless—that distinguishes men ‘and women, and places them heads and shoulders above their ‘comrades. ' «As a race, our group needs to learn this lesson, for no man (or “"yace) who is afraid to take a chance; who does not possess the nerve and hardihood to adventure: who does not believe in him- ‘self; who wants to wait and see how the other fellow comes out ‘before he is willing to undertake anything; who always goes “around looking for and predicting failure for projects and ven- tures launched by his own racial group—this type of man or species of race will never get anywhere nor make much progress ‘either in this world or the world to come. ‘A certain supposed intelligent and successful Negro said to an. other, member of his race, who had made a success of his small ‘business and had enlarged and embarked on a bigger scale: “If you are successful in your new project, I won't mind investing ‘about $1,000 in your business.” “IF YOU ARE SUCCESSFUL!” “If” always expresses doubt ‘or fear, more oF less; and moreover, if this young race business ‘man is'as successful in his enlarged business as he was in his famaller business project, he will not need the eapital of this “doubting Thomas” of ebony hue who is watching and waiting to see “how things are coming out.” ‘This is obe of our racial faults—our hindsight always being better than our foresight. ‘How often have you heard some old colored settler in a fast growing Southern city tell how he could have bought a certain [piece of land a few years back for a mere “song and dance,” while today that same piece of property is worth thousands of dollars. “Nothing ventured, nothing gained,” is a trite aphorism which in as patent as the nose on one's face; and the man or race that ‘never ventures, that never makes an attempt to do the unusual ‘and unexpected, that has no faith nor confidence in his ability to “Ao. the job botior than. the other fellow—that-man-or-race-will never make any substantial and material gains, and he or it will ‘go to the final resting place, “unhonored, unwept and unsung.” ‘Remember, he can who thinks he can; and, conversely, he can’t ‘who thinks he can’t! _, . BARTERING PATRONAGE IN TEXAS " ‘The United States senate patronage committee, which is inves- _tigating or airing federal patronage in several of the Southern ‘tates, has made some startling disclosures concerning the bar- fering of federal plums in Texas during the present party leader, ship.in this state. | ihe senatorial investigating committee has discovered that of BO'persons making notes to the party leaders in Texas to help i ‘the oranization, 242 were cither postmasters or postal -.0ft 58 undestified signers of rates, Congressman Harry M. esas, informed the commttte trae several of then were federal Gisborne, aid States maha olciors of catoms Piven nge some, ort 1 of oe maeamows inet ey oceeel untery becuse meti do not usually io under a legal obligation fons of ¢ hs ma ; thea 0; due, | the fact that the terms of office were expiring and new notes were being demanded by the party leaders in the state. ‘These contributions or notes, according to the Lone Star State national solon, showed a sharp decline after January 1, 1922, bat began to mount again in 1925, and he predicted that they’ will [again show an increase during 1929, ‘These notes totaled more than $200,000, according to Mr. Wart. bach, and all of them were made payable to the state organization, headed by R.

O. P. leaders in this state? Will the matter be white-washed, or dropped like a torrid brick, or will the lily-white party leaders be indicted and tried for the ‘sale of federal plums? Since no such startling exposes were made in the federal job barter situation in Mississippi and yet the party leader in that state was indicted and tried on the charges, how ean the govern- ment evade a similar course in Texas, when the evidence is well nigh convincing, conclusive and overwhelming?

MERGERS THE ORDER OF THE DAY- ‘The proposed merger of the three colored old line life insurance companies (Northeastern af Newark, N. J., Supreme of Columbus, Ohio and Liberty of Chicago) and two colored colleges at New Orleans, La., (New Orleans University and Straight College), seems to indicate » new day among our group in America. ‘There is more truth than fiction in the time-old adage that “there is much strength in union;” and this is just as true in the business and commereial realm as it is inthe edusetional and reli- ious field. ‘i ‘Coming at a time when so many of our religious and denomina- tional bodies are dividing or threatened with irreparable rifts and splits, it is indeed encouraging and gratifying to see our business and educational leaders attempting to unite their forces for stronger, better and more substantial institutions. In business, particularly, the Negro has been reluctant and Joath to consolidate and pool his interests, and as a result the race hhas tried to do business individually and very little, if any, ap- preciable and permanent progress has been made ‘along many Hines. This is an age of mergers, consoldiations, combines and corpors- tions and the race which ean not read the signs of the times and interpret them to the advantage and betterment of ita racial con- tinent and the social order, will remain as the doormat for the other races and nations of the world. Doubt, suspicion, envy, jealousy and malice, the deterrents and ‘impedimenta to cooperation, progress and growth, have too long held sway among the Negro race and prevented our group from putting over big propositions and consummating large programs; but this deleterious policy is fast becoming passe, and the Negro race, commercially and economically, appears to be standing on ‘the threshold of a new and better day, and our group is about to center the field of big business in all that the term denotes and im- lies. Of course, mergers, consolidations and corporations, without trained heads, efficient, capable and honest administration of af- fairs; without conservation of funds and strictest economy ; with- ‘out teamwork and the utter absence of favoritism; with lack of modern, well-tested and amply proven methods of conducting and operating business, will not advance the race very far, and will ‘destroy what little confidence in and respect for such commercial ventures the Negro race has slowly developed in various sections ‘of the country in recent years. | NEGROES INSULTED AT CONFERENCE | _ It seems that no matter what eminences some of our white peo- ple attain, they prove themselves too amall, ignorant and uncouth to rise above their racial prejudices; and thus they will hurl un- called for and unwarranted insults upon the Negro, race in public meetings and gatherings. During the recent silver jubilee celebration of the federal farm extension department, held here at the City Auditorium, it is al leged that one of the state leaders (white) grosaly insulted the Prairie View State College male quartet, the colored agricultural workers present from all sections of the state and country, as well as the colored citizens who were present at this public fan. ‘The male quartet from the colored school ld rendered several selections, whereupon this white Texas extension leader, who was serving as master of ceremonies, according to information given this paper from reliable sourees, openly stated that: after, musical selections “by our Mexican friends (referring to a Mexican brass band from Kingsville) my ‘niggers’ from Prairie View will sing again It is further stated that the young men from Prairie View be- came so incensed at this ingult that they withdrew, from the audi- torium and did not sing again that evening. Tt seems a pity that typical ‘Texas hill-bllies and bourbon Dixie crackers should occupy important posts in such mixed gatherings, and it is all the more pitiable and humiliating that they should 80 revert to type as to insult part of their audience, and even eause the cultured and refined members of the white race to bow their beads in shame: for no thing, coltared and refined white mun fer to Negroes as “niggers,” ‘darkeys,”:"coons,” any kind of a public meeting, particularly where members of both races are present. ‘T.scoms that this was the anly discordant note struck and only inault heaped upon the the entire ference here, and off ty RRLLY bemtain.

J. DAVIS JR. Feature Editor The NEGRO GRO WH "After a mock trial, he was shot and Killed" NEGRO SLAVE was the George Washington and the Lincoln combined of Mexico. And he was also its second president. Mexico, at that time, was larger than the United States. Vicente Guerrero was born at Ixtla, Mexico, in 1782. His father was Juan Pedro Guerrero and his mother, Maria Guadelupe Saldana, of mixed Negro and Indian parentage. Perhaps there was also a white strain for he is often referred to as a half-caste, and Larousse, foremost French encyclopedia, speaks of him as a "mulatto slave" (esclave, mulatre) "who led the fight for Mexican independence." Guerrero began life as a mule-driver. His people were the lowest of the low. They were degraded by law, custom and prejudice, and hindered in every way from rising. Unlike Lincoln, Guerrero hadn't the slightest chance to learn to read. He was nearly forty before he knew a letter of the alphabet. In 1810 when Guerrero was twenty-eight, the struggle for Mexican independence began, led by a valiant priest, named Hidalgo. The Mexicans were heavily taxed by Spain, all commerce with other countries was forbidden, as well as all home manufacture. Hidalgo planted grape vines to make his own wine, and the Spanish governmentore them up. --- Interesting, Entertaining and Instructive A Section 2-Saturday, February 23, 1929 WHO FREE Or From Pro by J.A. Wine must be bought from Spain. At this time, too, the Mexicans were called on to pay an additional tax of forty-five million dollars—an enormous sum those days—to Spain. Really the complaint that the American colonists had against King George was nothing in comparison with that that the Mexicans had against the king of Spain. GUERRERO DISTINGUISHES HIMSELF Hidalgo declared the independence of his country and called on all Mexicans to follow him. Among the first to respond was Guerrero. In the first battle Guerrero distinguished himself, and was made captain. Armed almost only with pitch forks the Mexicans, most of whom, like Guerrero, came from the lowest element, were victorious. Among the number was also another Negro who is described by Villasenor, Mexican historian, as being "very black, of horrible appearance and extraordinary bravery." His name was Juan del Carmen. Later he was made a colonel and became the close friend and supporter of Guerrero until killed in battle. The Mexicans were at first successful but finally gave way before the Spaniards. One by one the leaders, Hidalgo, Morelos, Allende, Aldama, Jiminiz, Mina, were captured and beheaded. Others accepted the king's pardon. All but one: Guerrero. "Forsaken by for- --- From Slave to President by J.A.ROGERS FED MEXICO tune, betrayed, without money, without arms," says Villasenor, "with only his will power left, he was at this time of desolation and despair the only supporter of the cause of independence, causing to shine forth his valor, prudence, profound sagacity, indefatigable activity, and heroic constancy." "Even in the darkest days of the long revolution," says Rives, "he was the leader of a little body of unconquered men, who kept alive the cause of independence." The government even sent his father, Pedro, to plead with him, offering him lands and wealth, but Guerrero was firm. He had pledged himself not to rest until the hated Spaniard was driven into the sea. He never spared the life of a Spaniard nor asked for mercy from one. GUERRERO WINS TWO BATTLES Finally the Spaniards sent Gen. Iturbide after him. Guerrero whipped Iturbide in two battles. Iturbide had high ambitions. He wanted to rule Mexico. He had bought up the army, but Guerrero was in his way. He arranged with Guerrero for a parley, during which he told Guerrero that he had had a change of heart; that he believed the Mexicans were right, and would come over to them if Guerrero would side with him. The latter, placing full faith in him, agreed.
