these is not Mr. Knowles.

Bishop A. Frank Smith and Bishop
Clinton S. Quin are outstanding for
their service in the vinyard of the
Lord and the good they do among
mankind, Monsignor Father Walsh,
of departed memory, also was a man
of whose efforts all might well have
been proud. His efforts for mankind
were only surpassed by his zeal, for
the most Holy One.

Dr. Knowles will bring to the Jew-

Will the Jews give up their usual

Dr. Knowles the attendance and at-

honoring him you glorify yourselves.
Will you, my fellow Jew, do your

Dr. Rosinger is recognized as a

He bespeaks the hearty coopera-

us throughout the dark days and
through their efforts the support of
the advertiser—without which no pa-

Last week we published a resolution
passed by District Grand Lodge No.

The publisher of the Herald had
no idea why he should be hailed be-
fore the cortVention assembled. .

well paid professions. The poor-
er classes still sacrificed every-
thing willingly to have a doctor

height of ambition w-as no lon-

as lucrative as the other pro-

that the business man can j
or the high fee* that our doctor*
and lawyer* can charge, but
rather through what these man
do with their leisure hour* and
with their money. Amidst the
difficulties which now surr6und
them we women must set an ex-
ample by cheerfulness and cour-
ageousness. We must imbue our
children with’the thought that
character supersedes all wealth.
We must spread .the thought
that a man must be judged by
what he does with his leisure
and* not by what his remunera-
tion is during his working hours
Briefly let up judge him by his
avocation and not his vocation.
,There is a saying that in
England when a person is be-
ing discussed the question is
asked, “Who is he?" In tragic
Germany the question used to
be, “What does he know?" But
in America the question has al-
ways been, “What has he got?”
If that is true, we Jewish wo-
men of America will have to
adopt a new slogan, and this
should bo “Who is he? and what
does he know?” Only when our
Christian neighbors will judge
us by what we are, what we
knoW? and what we say, will
racial prejudice against tne Jew
be lessened. The more we de-
velop the spiritual side of our
lives the less jealousy, preju-
dice *and enmity will our econo-
mic status arouse. The Syna-
gogue and the home are the me-
diums through which our spirit-
ual lives can best be developed.
We have been a long li«ed*race
because our ethical and moral
standards had not deterioriated
through surplus wealth. Our in-
terests were centered chiefly
about the home and the syna-
gogue, and .oU? contributions to
civilization were made in philos-
ophy and religion because of our
love for. meditation and study.
The Jewish home was held up
to the mirror of the w6rld as a.
model where morals, ethics and
sobriety reigned #supreme. '-It
still has a pretty fine fating but
its standards have been lowered
somewhat by the surplus amount
of money which many of us had
at dtir disposal to satisfy unde-
sirable thrills. Perhaps, who
can tell, reduced incomes and,
present hardships may be bring-
ing to us blessings in disguise,
which again will make of us
the teachers of the world. Let
the women do their part toward
A
The Jewish contribution to the
civilization of the world has^-that end. Let us hold the torch
been a spiritual one, and it must
continue to be so. We will ihakp
this spiritual contribution not
because of the amount of money
on high to light the way in or-
der that our husbands and chil-
dren will be encouraged to fol-
low.
