church look so
dignified and good,
but when Jewish
people pass a
church it Is like a
dagger in their
heart with the
thought that here
is where the seed
of antl - Semltism
Is planted. Here
la where the Gen
tiles get fresh
courage every Sunday to hate us.
"A Christian family near us had (lost
two children, and the third and only one
they had left lay very sick and the
mother had glveh her up for dead. I
went over to see her and tried to com
fort the poor woman, but I was afraid
the little child was beyond aid. Still
you know the ssylng, 'Where there's life
there' hope,' so I went to an elderly re
tired doctor I knew and pleaded with
htm to go and look at the little girl and
see what he could do for her.
"I persuaded him to go over, and he
prescribed an old-fashioned remedy that
saved that child's life. While she was
convalescing, I sent her over some little
toys, and I was indeed glad when 1 saw
the child on the street.
"Now the outcome of this is that the
child's father never as much as notices
me on the street, and her aunt, who
lived in the same house with them until
recently, also never speaks to me. Just
because I am a Jewess. I would1 not bur
den you with my troubles, but It Is hurt
ing me so that I can hardly bear It.
"My children are forever coming home
crying and complaining that the Chris
tian children are always after them and
calling them Jews, Sheeny, etc., which
makes my heart bleed, as I nlways tench
my children to do unto others as they
want to be done by.
"I ask you on behalf of humanity and
In the name of our Heavenly Feather to
enlighten Christianity, as to our virtues,
as well as our faults. Ask them to treat
us as human beings, not hate us just
because we are Jews.
"I -am sure they misunderstand Christ's
teachings when, Instead of spreading
'peace on earth, good win towards men,'
they incite their people to hate us before
they know us or see if we have human
hearts and thoughts Just like them
selves. "A JEWESS."
This pathetlo letter laJ a human docu
ment In itself. It scarcely needs a word
added by another to impress upon the
mind of every right-thinking human being
the shame and disgrace which our Chrls
tlon churches and our Christian schools,
whether Protestant or Catholic, are bring
ing upon the name of Christ by permit
ting and encouraging the spirit of race
prejudice to not only exist but to fatten
and flourish In their midst. Ood selected
a Jewess to be the mother of Christ.
Nowhere can we find any authority In
the New Testament for the centuries of
persecution which the orthodox churches
have shown toward a great and gifted
race. This spirit of persecution, found In
every village, in every hamlet, as well
as in our larger cities of America, cannot
b based upon the fact that the Jews be
lieved Christ to be a great man, but not
the Savior of the world.
In some of our Christian pulpits to
day stand ordained clergymen who hold
this same belief. A large percentage of
church members believe Christ to have
been the highest expression of divinity

Helgho for the winter girl Dan's heart has changed

and brown skin that he adored so Just a little while au
which the earth has known, and believe

but they do not believe In the Immacu

There was a time when such liberal
beliefs were dangerous to express, and
when the orthodox church meted out
torture and death of those who dared
utter them.
But a broader and saner and more
tolerant spirit has come into the world,
and with this broader and saner spirit
has come a truer reverence for Christ
and a truer understanding of the creed as well as herself
He taught, the creed which bids develop that Is called pub

by our daily lives in thought, word and
deed to seek to be perfect "even as our
Father In heaven Is perfect" and to be

mate goal of each human being.
This is the only creed which can "save
the world." Christians who teach their
children the catechism and who send

day He would say to them, "Depart from
Mai I know ye not." The Bible tells us
that the Lord called Abraham to be the
father of a chosen race of people. The
Israelites became the most powerful na
tion on earth.
Like all people who become powerful,
they grew Intolerant and misused their
privilege. In Leviticus we are told that
God said unto them: "If ye will not
hearken unto Me, I will punish you seven
times more for your sins and break the
pride of your power." "Afterward they
shall return and shall know the goodness
of the 'Lord In their latter days." "I
will strengthen the house of Judah, and
I will bring them again to place them
and they' shall be as though I had not
cast them off. Their children shall see
it and be glad."
Let the Jewish people read over these
prophecies and rejoice, and know that
their future is to be more glorious vhan
their past. In no other nation upon the
earth today can be found so much
genius, so much power, so much exe
cutive ability. Through great suffering
and tribulation the Jews have come to ,
be the most philanthropic, benevolent
and charitable people.
The day is not far off when they will
be recognised again as world leaders in
thought and achievement. For they are
a God-loving and, a God-fearing people,
and through their sorrows they are de
veloping the "Christ within," and
greater works they shall yet do.

Two Girls
So Mlns Kllzabeth Zlmmcr pondered on
the health of her community and how It
would be Improved by those public baths.
"What can I do?" she asked herself
proving the possession of social con
sciousness. She considered this plan and
that. She sifted her own propositions
down to one of an endless chain of let
ters. By writing ten letter, herself and ask
ing each friend to whom .he sent them
to write ten others, she put on foot a
plsn to secure 10,000 signature, to a peti
tion asking from the distributive agents
of the community fund the building of
such a bath. The petit! n la
rolling up an imposing lot of signatures.
That significant sign of public sentiment
will impress the board In authority. The
public baths are as.ured.
As the tall, clear-eyed, strong-chinned
girl walks down the street of her home
town, admiring citizens say: "Do you
think women will all act as that girt
does? If I thought so, I would vota for
votes for women."

ground of support and gives tension to
action; Just as a wooden leg Is better

Were we to apply thev principle we are

have to acknowledge that the Roman

Insists upon their Inculcation. It give,

and the belief accomplished In them by
