SIMON ON SABBATH SCHOOLS
Omaha Babbi Discus a Phase of ths
Jewish Religious Work.
HOW TO ACCOMPLISH THE END DESIRED
Method a era-rated Wkrrrtf the In
terest of the Papll May Be
Anakrird aael Held at Varies,
Magee of Ills Life.
At the conference of the Cnlon of Ameri
can Jewish Congregations, recently held In
St. Louis, Rabbi Abram Simon of Omaha
read a paper before the Babbath School
section on "The Problems of the Jewish
Sahbath School," which was very well re
ceived. Rabbi Simon considered hU study
tinder Ave heads: "The Oeneral Troblera
of Religion and Education," "The Specific
Problem of the Jewish Sabbath School,"
"The Problem of Method and the Stand
point of Interest." "The Problem of the
Curriculum," and "The Problem of the
Teacher." Under the first head he dis
cussed at some length the general condi
tions of religion and education, arguing
that they "are now converging toward each
other from different standpoints." Psychol
ogy, he argues. Is the means which is
bringing the two together. Under the
second heading, he contends that the Jew
needs the Sabbath school institution in
order to preserve the Identity of his rsre
and his religion. Taking up the third dl
vision of his topic. Rabbi Simon said:
In Introducing the third problem of
method and standpoint of Interest let me
lay down five generalizations from which
all subsequent Ideas will be drawn.
(a) A child reproduces In his soul the
life history of the race.
(b) A child should be fed according to
Its appetite. A child will not digest Ideas
It cannot assimilate.
(c) The old testament is our text book
of religion, through personalities, psalms
and prophecies, but Jewish literature in
Its entirety of thirty centuries development
Is an enlarged edition of Jewish life and
experience and must not be neglected.
d) All methods that can aid In the en
rlchment of sentiment. In the quickening
and control of the will, In the stirring of
Impulse to high Ideals, In the tnvlgoratlon
of religious functioning ran be legitimatized
ty a good teacher in a Jewish Sabbath
school.
(e) The education of the Jewish child
today is destructive only In Its relation
to bis historic mission. The Jew has his
high born mission to be the exponent of
religion. He . haa besides Ood's commis
sion to him to hold fast to It until he Is
called by Him to surrender that charge.
The statement of the problem of Inter
est needs an added word of explanation.
Every student of child life knows that at
certain years In Its growth the child Is
unmistakably Interested In and wholly
absorbed by certain characters, 'When
child says he is more Interested in Esau
thau In Jacob, that Esther la more at
tractive to him than Ruth, Is It a prefer
enie not to be reckoned with? When the
children of the lower grades evidence
special fondness for the babyhood of Moses
and the call of Samuel, tbe child, he gives
a pedagogue a splendid opportunity. When
a child craves for red rather than white,
for pictures of war, than for pastoral
scenes. Is he not telling us In a candid
confessional way wherein be needs dlrec
tlon snd training? Dr. George E. Daw
son has published a very suggestive article
on "Children's Interest In the Bible," and
while it may have been written from a
purely Christian standpoint to make Jesus
come in the fullness of Messianic expecta
tion, yet withal It la a schoarlx assurance !
of what la possible In the realm of religioua
culture from the standpoint of Interest.
Buppose you' apply thts method to your
pupils and you will find that the young
est children revel In myths and folklore;
older ones long for heroic and dramatic
situations, others grow more advanced, find
their entire Interest In ethical and relig
ious episodes, and so on. In fact,' the
bible la a pedagog's book. (Pedagogical
Seminary, vol. vll. 151).
This does not mean to bring Into a claas
room everything that may Interest chil
dren. I am looking at this question from
the child's view as a racial deposit. A child
may display more Interest In Cain than In
Abel. Hers la an Interest that needs train
tag, not chaining. To put the matter con
cisely. I quote from an article by Walter
U, Hervey, who said: "The law of Interest
1, exclusive, not Inclusive. It tells us
what not to place before tbe children.
Nothing that Is not Interesting; not every
thing .that Is interesting; not anything
because i( Is interesting."
Interest Is Essentia!.
Let me bring In this connection a
statement or two that Is logically related
to the foregoing dlscuasiou.
I have often been puzzled at the poor
showing which some of the brightest public
chool pupils make In the Sabbath school
have come to the conclusion that tney
have sluiDly not been interested wnemer
tt ba the fault of the teacher or of the
curriculum I ahall not take time to con
alder, yet I am tempted to put the leaat
blamo on to- child. There Is no success
In forcing tnt4est. It Is a waste of valu
able energy and time. Not interested chll
drcn ars tailed "laiy;" If active, they are
termed "mischievous." Who ever heard
of normal children being laiyT They are
bundles of nervous, fidgety energy, which tor
soma reason or other they cannot utilise
during the Sabbath school session. Interest
the mischievous or laxy children In some
line of mental (or manual! activity ac
cording to tbe bend and trend of their
minds, and they will readily redeem them
elves! Invariably a child of this descrip
tion is suffering from religioua dyspepsia,
duo either to overfeeding or to underfeed
ing. Pessimism Is said to come from a bad
liver, and this aforementioned spiritual
ludlgKStlon is well nigh pathological. Chil
dren who cannot be Interested are In
variably starving, hungering for the proper
food In wise proportions according to their
appetites. Msybe the atmcaphere, such as
excessive humidity with its sensation of
stickiness and Irritability and lassitude may
be sn Inciting cause tor Indisposition. The
Influence of weather or crime, ts now en
gaging too serious attention of penologists,
why may not the relation of weather, to
education be deserving some fleeting con
sideration? It seems to me after all, that
to study a child's Interests and to guide,
both the lessous and the luterest, thereby.
Is a true and scientific axiom of teaching.

Is nature's method of keenlna tbe child
longest with the mother at the time when
tbe physical and psychlcsl tie la the most
Intimate. It Is a period that laya the
strongest foundation for the child's edu
cation. Here the first stirrings of emotion
snd the ever-growing sense of self and
personality ripen Into religious sentiment.
From mother's gentle touch snd csress,
from the presence of personalities from

this period, will follow the line of devel

must be "aaturtsnV' It must be the

that It functions normally. It Is an age of

Our Sabbath schools number four classes

to i years of age; lb) Consists of the
bildren from 8 to IS years of sge; (o
Consists of tbe children from 13 to 1 years
of age; (d) Const ,la of the children from
It to 20 years of age.
Before mapping out In a very sketchy
and Imperfect manner the character of th,
work that each claaa should do, a pre.
llmtnary and all Important question cornea
for consideration. What Is the religious
content of our children before they enter
kindergarten class? A careful study of
h a question In the light of what has
seeded ought to furnish very valuable
I data by which the subsequent courses of
tudy.
Prof. FiSke has laid strongest emphasis
on the value to child development of Its
prolonged helplessness as compared with
For the Littlest Ones.
(a) The kindergarten class. If the per
sonality, sense of the child. Is Its pro
foundest attitude with which it Is com
pelled to view all life, it becomes the men
tal tool with which tt creates Its own
myths and legrnda, satisfies its hunger for
the miraculous and the mysterious, in
keeping always with its hourly experiences
and out of which in course of time will
flower the Ideal of God. Personality ex.
tended sideward is the worship of stones
and rivers, trees snd stars; extended down
ward Is the belief In ghosta, doubles, gob
II ns and the worship of dead ancestors,
extended upward Is the purification of the
above into polytheism, dualism, theism.
The child passes through stages correspond
ing to all these In the course of Its
psychical life. A boys' pocket, a store
house of the most incongrous and bUarre
objects! Is it not the fetich age? Wit
ness Its collecting passion, Its first sense
of property, to have and to hold, to collect
things that Interest them for the moment,
buttons, pins, dolls! It's naturalist stage
can be seen In. the feathers, eggs, nests,
horns, aoorn, that it gathers together.
There Is the day, too, for lucky stones,
marbles, strangely marked, rabblt'a foot and
similar talismanic trinkets. The child
passes through an animistic stage. Ghosts
have a fascination for it, love of fairy
tales and of the supernatural warms Its
heart. In view of this what shall the
child from to 8 be taught concerning God
and religion In general?
I. The God Idea. The Gods always
equal the mental frame of their slrshlpers.
Whether endowed with less or greater
power, whether possessing attributes of
cruelty or mercy, they always conform
to man's psychical nature. They are not
objective realities, but needs of the soul.
Some think tt unwise to teach children
of this age the Idea of God. As a matter
of tact the child grows up naturally to
the faith of lta father. The Idea of God
being instructive, requires constant appeal
stimulus, suggestion and use to make it
permanent. Let a child not lose Its ant-
mlsttc conception of the universe! Meta
physics and abstract conceptions and
catechlstlc statements are worse than noth
ing.
Child's Idea of Cod.
Since the child revels In activity, the
thought of God will partake of that func
tion. God should be taught the children
as a maker, a fashioner, a worker, as one
who not only Is master of wind and rain
but who, likewise, Is ever dally, hourly
working, and renewing the earth. This
la an elementary Idea that readily lends
Itself, aa years of discretion come, to
clear and scientific principle. Genesis pre
sents us with this Idsa of God who created
the world and fashioned all that Is therein,
who planted the garden and walketh In the
still of the night therein. ' Nor did the
rabbis leave hold of this Idea, for they
had God alwaya working In life, for' "At
the fourth hour God was tsachlng tbe
children." To this conception of God
working tor the good of the universe.
child can pin his faith, aad to Him turn
with confidence and love. In brief. It is
this simple yet wholesome and thoroughly
assimilable lesson of God In nature which
the child .at this age. bhould possess. A
teacher can readily, present this sublime
truth In multiform and Interesting ways.
II. The Bible, history and religion. In
addition to the above God-Idea, which must
be rather an emotional than an Intellectual
exercise, we turn to the treatment o ths
bible for children from to 8 years of age
At thia age children are Interested In child
hood and Its experiences. Stories from this
place of life and taken from any part of the
bible with reference to daily life ran read
lly be made frames for presenting sug
gestlve snd stimulating religious and
ethtcsl lessons. It Is the age when 1ml
tatlon Is acutest and moat' effective, and 1
doubt not that beside tbe patterns which
the bible hroes and heroines will offer
for Imitation, the most effective copy
worth Imitation is that of tbe teacher him
self, punctual, rather five minutes before
the tap of the bell than one-half a minute
after it, impartial, sympathetic, reverent
splrltual-mlnded and suggestive. Listen'
lng to such a teacher for only one hour
week Is an Inspiration to any rhMd. To
attempt to "inform" a child at this age 1
to deform its natural, mental mould. There
la no reason In tbe world why a Jewish
Sabbath school cannot, especially In these
two years, be a nursery where attendance
and recitation will not only be Interesting
but joyous. The prophetic spirit demanded
that the Sabbath be an "Oneg," a day of
delight. I see no reason why that same
Joyousness consistent with reverence and
lesrnlng should not be the atmosphere of
our schools.

It Is the story of a steady growth from

The bsslc Idea of life insurance was sn
Imported one, and a very ancient one, but
the form In which it has become a great

the western hemisphere when the Mutual

opened Its doors on February 1, 143. At
the head of this organisation was Morris
Robinson, who, a Canadian by birth, had
in the first quarter of the nineteenth cen
tury taken a position among the foremost
financiers of the United States. He was
cashier of the New York branch of the
United States bank up to the time that
that Institution was discontinued by Presi
dent Jackson, and had been abroad as an
expert In the Interest of one of the largest
New York banks. While on this errand
he became interested in life Insurance as
carried oa in England, and when, after
his return, he started a movement to estab
lish it In this country it was confidence
in his judgment that brought him the sup
port of the prominent merchants who were
then the great men of New York. So, from
Its very beginning, American life insur
ance has been in the hands of expert finan
ciers, backed by the most experienced
business men.

business man of Philadelphia was paid
$120,987.23 In aettlement of the largest en
dowment policy any company ever wrote,
and the same man still has other Insurance
for $lii6,000. The biggest single rremlum
ever received In the sixty years of Ameri
can Insurance came from tbe Havemeyer
family In the form of a check for $578,345,
to cover five policies of $100,000, each of
which carried guaranteed income beginning
ten years from the day on which they
were dated. James J. Hill, president of the
Great Northern railway. Is still another big
policy holder, having paid $136,350 In 1892
for a $100,000 policy which brings him an
annuity of $12,400.
These big policies indicate some of the
interesting development of life insurance,
not only In the amount of money . invested
In It by individuals, but in the manner of i
