E. J. Cain, a local preacher, was thrown out of court last week after three years of litigation by order of Judge Willy Whip.

At the trial other余害逾限 brought out the Dipatch. It was permitted severance. In dismissing the case on a de- bate, the judge said he believed in freedom of the press. "No hostile public servant should object to justice by being placed in a man who is placed or irritated by his activities does not necessarily infer that he has been libelled." The judge said newspapers should not be licensed to publish unethical but he believed they should be licensed to freedom which would permit them to expose the truth and the facts on all matters.

L. HARRISON President, Baptist Missionary and Educational Convention of Texas M. Dear Brethren: I am not pleasure in the final out- come of our struggle among the Bap- tists of our state as is revealed in public press this week throughout the country—this great wants of money, pe n ditures, unceounted for a n d attempted destruction of the major- y rule; the very vital in our government. But we must know the truth if we are to be free. I am been an unplea- ns penitures, uncounted for and attempted destruction of the majority of the vital in our church government. But we must know the that if we were to be free. It has been said by E. L. Harrison ant discovery, which justifies the broken confidence in our convention program during the war. One hundred and seventy thousand dollars have been given for the work of the war, and we have estimated assets in buildings and fixtures by an appraiser of $35,000. Our holdings but instead lost nine assets and still we own nearly $35,000 of that amount $85,000 has been listed by the church government.

Before the roll was again called for the vote the opposition widened and the vote was made unanimous. The support to carry the merger into effect were unanimously adopted and the opposition good feeling of all present. Stockholders of the Liberty Life will pass on the matter within the last week after which the whole matter will be submitted to the insurance department, who have been thoroughly conviverant with the proposal to merge with the tentative approval to the matter. Owing to the great amount of technical and detail work involved the company was effective until the last of May or the early June of the末年. The directors of the Northwestern met and elected Dr. P. M.

The developers of SYLVAN TERRACE have realized for many months that there is a demand for building sites by the best colored people of Houston in a highly developed and restricted subdivision, with the kind of an environment that would enable them to build homes and enjoy the comforts of life, knowing that when they built a nice home an unpainted shack or a group of rent houses would not be built by the side of it.

LEONARD Public Relations Representative of "Harden" (For The Associated Negro Press) Installation When "Harden" first revealed its pennual drama in the middle of last February, two of its ingredients stood out above all others as conspicuously a note thumbnail on a bank teller: One was its genius direction by a twenty-four-year old chap named Chester Erkin, and the others its wiping, animalistic and raw but wholly talented cast of sixty-old dark-shaded playwright. The latter fact, especially, was cause for no small wonderment among theater commentators. What made them laugh, and what made the bang noise accompanying the shattering of the notion that the Negro is originally the white, without honor histi For, with the possible exception of those in "Perry," the colored actor in "The Greatest Alive dramatic obscurity. Nor could his merits have been judged by that spiritualistic merit; the character was more true to Sean Connery; both merely palpeted him. But at no time before "Harlem" was the role he played; himself in the terms of drama he understood on Broadway and most easily recognized by the white world With such conclusions about the Negro actor in America history is inclined to differ so far back as 1789, when he was the greatest of all, claimed as the greatest Oblast of all.

Unfortunately, Aldridge has taken his talents mostly to English audiences. At any rate, the tradition is announced down that royalty often swoon on his performances, and thematic intensity of his acting. Thus the Negro of today ought not to be without some hereditary acting genius. However, there appears to be a great hiatus in African drama dramas in the first colored performers of any import. Perhaps there were earlier attestations of the shrine of Thepse, but none has been handed down for the records prior to the year 1870.

THE HOUSTON INFORMER, SATURDAY, MAY 11, 1929 ALL SITES NOT LESS THAN 50x100 FEET COLORED MAIDS OCCUPY UNIQUE JOBS IN MOVIES Los Angeles, Cal.—(ANP)—For each great white star of the movie world, there is an accompanying luminary whose light fails to attract the public gaze or stir the public acclaim but which is nevertheless just an certain it. its glow as that of the most luminous of the stars, Mary Pickard. These secondary stars who live in a sort of eclipse are the colored maids of the public's darlings. There are more than two dozen of these colored maids, so-called, in Hollywood whose position, ordinarily, are those responsibilities one attributes to a secretary, assistant business manager, and so on, found to be efficient, and trustworthy, these colored maids become the confidante, mother, confessors, and genius of the cinema passion flowers. One of these women, Ethel Walker, has employment with one other, a celebrity than any other. She has been personal maid to Betty. Compson for employment with the city by white and colored as the trusted representative of the movie company, the hundred fan letters each day for the star; has charge of the home, laundry, and kitchen of her bungalow dressing rooms and, may go away "on location," Miss Walker goes with her. Louis Thomson is still of much interest to Miss Lottie Pickford, sister of the famous Mary. Lotte, who has been mixed up inumerable ponds solely on Miss Thompson to look after her affairs. Her parties always present, whether she is guest or hostess. Every Wednesday night she presents table at the Apex Night Club, Curtis Mosby's colored fun renderings for Miss Pickford, or white parties present or not, she makes plenty "whopee." When a rehearsal for Miss Pickford's for Miss Pickford's favor, Louise was the only witness to what was rehearsal for Miss Pickford's for kidding摄入 by Mexican bandits. Miss Thompson kept faith in the matter, declining to "spill the beans," and the police as an attempted kidnapping. Frequently thousands of dollars in cash were stolen in caring for Miss Pickford's household and other bills. It is of course necessary that these funds be kept in the house. A couple of years ago a man involved the mother of Pauline Starks in a car crash was charged much. After being discharged by ABBIE MITCHELL THRILLS GOTHAM WITH HER VOICE New York—(ANP)—Never was the glorious voice of Abbie Mitchell the one who led the Sunday afternoon when the famously soprano was presented in recital at Engineering Auditorium. A moment on Miss Mitchell's program and now at the height of her career, any number of much-remembered songs, much from Miss Mitchell. It was a THE MAYOR OF BROOKLYN treat to hear her golden notes soaring above the accompaniment of the four groups of songs, in German, Italian, English, and a group of spirituals comprise. Miss Mitchell sang "Exhortation." She was forced by thundering aplause to repeat her tenure as Miss Mitchell, after the program, Miss Mitchell received back stage where friends were invited to race leading soprano Miss Mitchell, who led her to the splendid afternoon triumph. Without doubt, Miss Mitchell race leading soprano Miss Mitchell, which rewarded her Sunday afternoon's efforts. Starks she went to work in the home of a well-known producer, but could not refrain from blabbing about a midnight Halloween party where she was ducked in the garden swimming pool by the other scantily atticed women of a few months, she worked for Pauline Stark, the Jack White family, and the law jobs pay is $100 per month, with board and room, it would seem that it would pay for her to practice keeping things to themselves.

But a matter, a part of the program given by the glue club of Bordentown, was the startling part of the singing, was the talent in this most difficult music, a year-old pupil of the school. Mike E. Kesner, young lady with the natural voice, sang with aphibia and a poise worthy of the show. That her voice lacked training was noted in evening poles, but there is a quality of her sweet, lyric soprane. On the same program, W.R. Valentine of the same institution, was a ten-minute address on the work of the school. He was introduced by Mr. Grangering of the same institution. He sang a quartet and ensemble, and the entire glue club. The effort was sponsored by the Negro Achievement Hour. out of a maturing experience, and from a conspicuous viewpoint, like a book in Paris.

Mr. Davis had declared that "the New Yorkers should know the Andrew Island bill," "surprising in its confusions, fallacies and incoherence," and that Mr. Andrew must be well-trained an Mr. Davis would make so "unscientific" a presentation, and they are contained in the following paragraph: "The real danger now (to the New Yorkers) is that the upper class which has developed in the last twenty years . . . is being drained and the machines for all they are worth, to draw apart from them physically, to draw apart from them lightly advanced in their own building the white world in luxury and amusement of lawyers, doctors, school teachers, real estate sharkers, business men contribution is limited to fur coats.

But Mr. Andrews produces figures to show that six national fraternities have total assets of more than $30,000,000, an annual income of nearly $7,000,000, and total assets of $200,000,000, and current claims paid of more than $3,000,000, and instead of being a "shell suffer because of inadequate rates. A statement made by Prof. W. G. Pearson, supreme grand scribe of the University, states that the institution is an important element for the promotion of the economic status of Thirdly, Mr. Davis undresses the Negro surgeon and the physician, to present them in the stark unadultery of their shame and venality.

Against the Negro lawyer Mr. Dawson, the Negro lawyer he takes all they give to Negro lawyer he lives on the ignorance of the common Negro and the largest part of his cases from the settlement of estates. Mr. Andres replies: "It is safe to assume that outstanding Negro lawyers in the entire South today, whereas Chicago lawyers in the North, are $80 and all of the other cities a proportionate number. There are some nine hundred counties in the South, and I fore, that if all the Negro lawyers in the South practiced in the practice were in the Southern, would not be a sufficient number to take care of the Negro's interests in the South." "We find that the 17 land grant colleges represent an investment of $100 million in the morality of their faculty members are more likely to take care of their students than find that trust insurance executives have built institution with as many as 100 payers to beneficiaries more than they pay back to beneficiaries more than Negro physicians and surgeons are creating an average of more than 40,000 students."

Jeremiah Call (1:11, 10). 2. It was prevalent (4, 5). 3. He born, born, born, God ordained him a prophet. 4. His diffence (v. 6). 5. This seems to have grown out of his grace, and made clear that he should (1) Go where commanded. (2) Speak as commanded. (3) He unfraid of their presence, and made clear that upon to face strong enemies. (4) Be assured of the divine presence. (5) Not merely the thoughts, but the proper words to express the thoughts, were put into the prophet's mouth. (6) It was to be wider than that of prefiguring. Six words are given that are destructive in their implication—"root out, pull down," destroy, and "throw down"; two constructive. b. Urjah (vv. 23-28) Urjah prophesied against the city and the land and thus incurred the wrath of the prophet. From the book from back: *Karp* and *slew him*. (3.) Rescued by Ahikam (v. 24). Ahikam must have been a man of in- fiance, to be able to interfere. Faith Faith is not blind acceptance of absurdity. Faith is the completion of a transaction in the social context with an unseen and living Master. Faith is such an adventure as every sailor makes when he sets out for an unseen destination. Faith is our yearning for the God who has made us for fellowship with himself. Faith is the answer of the abstraction of the magic of Eternity. —Otara S. Davis.

Convention of I have been closely watching and observing the course of events in our country. I don't know when I have missed a session of our convention. Especially I have been deeply concerned for the future. The Paris Session my mind to this meeting with my mind fully made up to vote for Rev E. L. Harrison for president and when I was in the office, I was in name of favor of E. L. Harrison. When the executive board met, my mind on the board elected another superintendent to lead me and my stead. However, it was all right with me, because I had made up my mind not to serve longer in that office. But I had the same right to vote for whom I wanted for president as any other candidate, but the enemies treated me dry. I said so in writing and sent the Western Star but it never appeared. When the officers were phoned for to come and drive out those who voted, I was told that I had night, I had gone home. My wife remained and was in the number of A Man of Prayer Dr. Wilson Fayored Me Because I voted my honest convictions I was thrown out of office by the Boone County jail, where he first died in Dallas in January, a department of evangelism. He also recommended that I be there were there and all they could be there, I failed, I recognized Dr. Wilson as my president. I cooperated with him and he was very kind to me. My wife and I went to Sherman with our minds made up this time to meet him. The Sherman Convention Pandemium. *reigned suprem.* Everything was confined.

I had not carried "15 days before-bard" and therefore could not vote. I did enroll with the Wollomidge side. Have Remained Loyal Sermon In Macedonia Church I told Dr. Wilson and his congregation that Texas Baptists were rioted, and five of them killed the dove that had the golden egg; that Baptists were in the worst shape in their history; that we would not get rid of them; that all the conventions would split and some of the churches; that Texas was torn all to pieces. What I predicted has come true. He got on with me, and we collected a collection; stood for my place to be taken by the regime and given an audience; we are having lawsuits after lawsuits, judgments after judgments. Even his own association has split right under the hands of a "receiver." Hundreds and thousands of dollars have been raised for Houston College is a mere by-word. An North Texas College has gone out of control and misled some "D." degree from North Texas College before she died more from Houston College—a Am Now a Freer Man I believe in the right. I believe in a majority rule in the Baptist church, and I believe in electing its own officers. I believe in electing by the B. M. and E. Convention to take the places of men elected by the B.

Deputy Sheriff Davenport was notified by Neah Neah talked to Jones on the street a short time before, and investigation showed that Jones had escaped from jail by driving his car and calling his cell and other jail doors. He had locked the doors after him. He was trailed Jones to the railroad, where the trail was lost. Deputy Sheriff Davenport stated that he had no assistance in the break for liberty, but had brought in jail a short time, and had been used in making the keys.

Z y i ~ | A * j By WALTER GLASTON RY ANN WELLING, brown, buxom and beautiful, cook and housekeeper for Cap- tain Henry Browning, hummed to herself as she hurried up the steps of the palatia! home of the old retired sea captain and shipping magnate. She had been to a big party over ir Oakland the night before and the joy of the oc- casion had not begun to wear off. Moreover, it was a beautiful morning, singularly free from the fog that so often envelops San Francisco. Al- though it was barely eight o'clock, the California sun was bathing the earth with its strong yellow rays. The city was just getting into its daily stride and up and down the street could be seen automobiles awaiting the coming of their wealthy owners to go downtown to business. Still humming, the housekeeper unlocked the front door, entered and went back to the kitchen where she was soon busy preparing the morning meal. There was no one to cook for ex- cept Captain Browning but he was very particu- lar. An aged bachelor, living absolutels.se- eluded from the world, he yet insisted on every- thing being perfect about his unnecessarily lare> and pretentious mansion, and particularly was he fussy about his meals. Mary busied herself set- ting the table in the breakfast room and putting the finishing touches on the meal. The captain usually came down to breakfast at nine o'clock and she always made it a point to be ready for im. Nine o'clock arrived and the great colonial ‘clock in the wide hall tolled out the hour. Mary placed the grapefruit-in an iced bowl at the cap- tain’s place and waited inside the kitchen door ‘until she should hear him come shuffling into ‘the breakfast room. She waited and waited. Soon she wearied of waiting and decided to make use of the time by paring some potatoes for luncheon. As she worked she wondered what Captain Browning was doing. He had never been so late before and she had worked for him for ‘over five years. “Well,” she mumbled to her- self, “you never can tell what he’s Hable to do— crazy as he is.” | Ten o'clock struck. Mary peeped into the ‘breakfast room only to see the captain's chair ‘empty as before. This alarmed her. There must be something the matter. What in the ‘world could it be? Had the captain gone out early for a stroll? No, it couldn't be that be- cause he never took a walk until after breakfast when the sun was high. Then had he died dur- ing the night? Oh, that couldn't be, for al- though past seventy, the captain was hale and. hearty as a result of the vigorous outdoor life he had lived in his many years before the mast. Frankly, she was puzzled and alarmed, : OMINOUS FOREBODING When the great colonial clock soundea eleven, she decided to go up and knock on his door. He had always warned her never to dis- turb him but she felt that in this instance she was justified in doing so. The house was quiet as a tomb. The footfalls of the housekeeper sounded hollow and unearthly in the cavernous corridor. With some misgivings clutching at heart, she toiled up ‘de long flight of cu stairs and walked down the upper hallway to door of the huge bedroom where the caj slept. Her slight tap brought no response. she knocked loudly. The sound echoed t the great building but no reply greeted her Puzzled, the woman _bent..ovep-and through the keyhole. She did not like to her employer in this manner but §he felt j in doing so when he was two hours late for fast for the first time in five years. With difficulty she could see the bed.
