The open meeting given by this
young organization this week was at-
tended by u goodly number of Gen-
tiles us well us Jews, thus indicating
atrinterest that is essential and much
to be desired.

The greater intercourse will create

the various denominations.

While the Temple Brotherhood
was "not specifically fortned for that
purpose it is certainly un admirable
and commendable accomplishment.

I am unable to tell you how gToat

friends fall to take advantage of this

A MATTER that presents itself in
r* mpst every tegiple and synagogue
in the country is the deplorable con-
dition of tne prayer books.
-o- -o- -o-
Very few prayer books, -property
of thfe congregation, are replete or
complete.
-o- -o- -o-
It is very annoying, t^j say the
least, to try to follow the services und
then, to find a number of pages .miss-
ing in a most interesting part of the
service. ’
.. ■ -o- -0- .-0- ‘ f
Imagine a non-Jew trying to fol-
low the service which- is partly in
Hebrew and English, and having
cuught up with the place after jump-
ing the Hebrew and then finding a
number of pages deleted!
-o- -o- -o-
Say, imagine yourself in that pre-
dicament!
- - -0- -O- -0-
When prayer hooks have served
so many years that they fall to pieces,
they have served many timds their
cost and should be replaced.

A ND again, the question of citizen-
™ ship!
-O'- -O* A0-
To vote in Texus, the citizenship
is required to-register and i>ay A poll
tax.
-0- ,“0- -o-
Whether there will he any elections
during tho year lull'd or npt the re-
quirements of citizenship are tho
same.
-o- -o- -o-
If the validity of your claim to"
citizenship were challenged there is
no telling to what extremity or ex-
pense you would not go in justifi-
cation of your claim.
-o- -o- -o- .
Why not rnsurp your rights and
avail yourself of your privilege of
citizenship even when you ure not
challenged or questioned?
-o- -o- -o-
Bcing. horn In the United States
or having been adopted by the United
States makes you an American all
right.
-o- -o- -o-
But unless you procure your poll
tax receipt you are only a step child
and not entitled to the privileges Of
full citizenship.
-O- -0- -o-
Every member of -your family,
male or female, twenty-one years or
over, should obtain a poll tax re-
ceipt which may be had in many of
the department stores, office bbild-
ings or courf house.

She carried her project for mothers’ | , ' ((luntinued on

nation as a whole qnd to the League*! .' ' .
of Nations. In 1 Si Id she became a
member of the-staff of "The Evening
World” and there began the series
of articles describing the problems
of the poor on the lower East Side
which gave the impetus to many re-
form measures in Albany. For years
she gave publicity to the causes for
which she was campaigning and they
were almost invariably successful. It
was said of her that she was directly
responsible for more reform meas-
ures than any other one woman in
the country.
Miss Loeb advocated that the state
abolish the system of. orphan asy-
lums for normal children, that pen-

which will enable them to rear their
children at home. The first com-,

tresW)lr. Rosenwald, speuking eleurly
and naturally from the screen, de-
clares:
“It was Ingersoll who said: ‘l hate
a stingy man.' If you have only a
dollar in the world and you have to
spend it, spend it like a king. J’d
rather be a beggar and* spend m.w
money like a king than be a king and
spend my money like a beggar. Most
people belieyc that because a man
has made a fortune Ids views on nny
subject (ire valuable. For my pArt,
I have always believed that most
large fortunes are made by men of
mediocre ability who tumbled into a
lucky opportunity and could not help
but get rich and in most cases others
given the same chance would have
done for better with It. Hard Work
and attention to business are neces-
sary, but they rarely result-in achie-
ving a large fortune. Do not be
fooled into believing that because a
man is rich he is necessarily smart
There is ample proof to the con-
trary.”

Having, nearThe close of his twen-

one to pay him homage. On Sunday
