Our Jewish friends are now ob
serving their New Tear the 5,81t.
The period include the fast of Cuad
alluh and culuinatea la Youi Eippur,
the most solemn Day of Atanewent,
next U'edastoday.
As a man of afalrs. I waut ) stop,
and take notice of ose of tbe most
leiiiiiikable phenauiena of the ceu-tu'-les
the preservation and Inde
structibility of the Jewish race. Hera
1$ a marrelou thing a bush is burn
ing and is not consumed! "Shaw me
a miracle." said Frederick the Great
lo his chaplain. "Sire, it is the Jews,'
answered the man of God. A an
Ambassador of God. I, too, in a la
bor of love would stop and pay a
tribute of appreciative recognition to
this wonderful people to whom you
and I are indebted for so many
things, not the least of which is the
funds mentals of our own Christian
relicf'Mis.
All the world's a stage whereon
not only Individuals but nations and
races are players. Every nation has
played some part, great or small,
tach one has had its uiesaaKe for the
centuries in which it lived. Rome
pave KOternnient; Greece, culture;
phomicia, commerce, the Jew has
enrried monotheism, the worship of
a single God, throunh the ages. He
has i layed his part and played it
well. Where he has faltered or blun
dered he always paid a fearful pen
alty. I know of none other that hat
eulfered so much and surviTed.
When the temple In Jersualem was
dest rayed the Jew became a wan
derer, a man without a country.
There isn't a continent, there Isn't a
nation upon the face of the earth of
which he is not an inhabitant. In
numerable forces of history through
many ages have helped to form his
destiny. His story is at once the mir
acle and the romance of human his
tory. None can blot him out, Baby
lonian captivity, Roman domination,
Grecian absorption, mediaeval perse
cution, modern massacre, have been
in vain. Talk about the splendid line
of Human pontiff on the banks of
the vellow Tiber the Jew has out
live! Egypt, Chaldea, Assyria. Persia,
and the dynasties of the past. While
oil" fnthers were savases living on
roots in the forest or gnawlnt; a bone
in a care his were Prince in the
hou. e of King David: He td-day Is
nothing more or less than a child of
his .'rent yesterday. Though re
moved from his Asiatic origin well
nigh' two thousand years, there's a
queer dualism which makes him a
crea"ire old and new. He has one
thess to wear a distinctive garb; for
biadan them ( surans in agricul
ture, limited their asefuluesa la par
ticular trades, only In rart case
allowad to own property, many othei
things prohlbltad under pain of death
wouldn't any aeeplo become "pe
culiar!" Would It be wondered at
If lone continued persecution would
leave them suspicious? The constant
menace of the proselyter would make
ro less fearsome than the fortune
chamber Itself they would toon fear
the Grfeks when bearing gifts. Each
period of oppression would send him
back decades, grieved and bewildered.
In spite of all this be has developed
a ninrvelous lore for bis step-motherlands.
The Jew has always been a
patriot of the land which gave him
birth. He Quickly adapts himself to
the country that glres him food and
shelter-. He soon finds himself. Given
the opportunity, he perfects himself
In science, music, painting, sculpture,
literature, medicine, mathematics,
history, astronomy. In all he gave
his best, ferquently In return he waa
refused civil privilege, political office,
military honor. Their hands were
tied and they were blamed for not
using them! Persecution, Are sword,
rack and tluoKn were his reward.
Captive children, murd""! men, rav
ished women were coin- tiered his
birthright. '
How loyal he it may i seen In
the Rtrtfo of the Giat y'T. In
England eight per cent, of Jews
enlisted to sit per cent, of ' non
Jews. America sent betwc u two
hundred thousand and two h- ' dred
and fifty thousand into all bu rhes
of the f ervice. Their Xjuota h -ing
about three per cent of the popula
tion, they exceeded by one-third. Of
the eight hundred citations for rilor,
174 won the Croix de Guerre, 130
Distinguished Service Cross, three
the United States Congressional
Medal of Honor, our highest gift, and
two the rare French kiedallle Milli
talre. Their casualties were about
eighteen thousand. Three thousand
five hundred laid down their lives by
the side of their non-Jewish com
piles under the popples of Flanders.
They too, had a rendetvous with
death. Honor to them! In the great
conflict on all sides one twentieth I'
the Jews of the world fought with
nothing to gain but the opportunity
of killing their own martyred race!
The Melting Pot.
America spells opportunity for tbe
Jew.
Some one has said: "In this melt
ing pot the Jew will be lost he Is
losing rapidly through Intermarriage,
modernism and Infidelity.'
No. He will not be lost. If he

The Jewish Old Testament litera

the Jew who loaned Washington six
thousand dollar to finance the Val
