By the death of Horacs Moses the Hyman
Gratz bequest of $1OO, 900 becomes available to
the Mickve Israel Congregation. The bequest
stipulated that the money was to be used for
the endowment of school for the furtherance
of Jewish learning. 1t is quite possible that
the money may be given to the Jewish Theo-
logical Seminary, now in New York, although
that institution would then have to be moved
to Philadelphia, for it is further stipulated
that the institution is to be in the city of Phla-
delphia.

What Pantheism Is.

What Pantheism Is.
Miss d. F., constant reader of the Specta-
tor, requests us to give her plain statement
what Pautheism means and claims that the en-
cyclopedias give too much of an explanation,
confusing the mind. We doubt whether we
can do much better, hut we shall endeavor to
give it in as terse and concise manner as
possible. The pantheist identities God and
nature. Nature is God and God is nature.
He looks upon the forces of nature, like CRAWL
tation, electricity, light heat, etc.. not as the
manifestations of hidden spiritual God, but
as God, part of the universal whole. The
pantheist thus conceives OF. God as the sum
and total of the seen and unseen. A pantheist
Of course does not believe in a special revela-
ton nor does he recognize separate supreme
intelligence, he supposes a unity transcending
all difference between mind and matter. And
this is the hypothesis, which makes it SO diff
cult to understand the system of pantheistic
philosophy, which even a Spinoza could not
make clear to the strongest minds. Suffice it
for our inquiring friend and for others to know
that there is considerable confusion of terms in
that cherries philosophy. If nature is God,
where is to be found the higher reference of
the moral ideal? With ell the beauty and
loveliness and grandeur Of nature, it is i'm
possible to prove that she possesses one single
moral quality. The stars that sparkle so SPLEEN
didly, look down with eyes as cold as ice, and
would see nations starve without shedding
tear. You love the flower, but does the flower
love your The lily that stands by the coffin
of the babe is as happy as when it stood by its
cradle Where is the pity, charity, love, the
righteousness in nature, outside of human
nature and sentient life? Where then does
the pantheist find any God better than him
self to Worship The monotheism of the Jew
Invested of all its foreign elements and in full
accord with the highest concepts of human
thought regarding the attributes of God, and
with its exalted views of human dignity and
human duty is without doubt the most simple,
and yet the most sublime religious truth ever
revealed to man.-Dr. Samfeld, in the Jewish
Spectator.

The faculty at Yale have made it very
emphatic that If the disturbances in New
York following the game are not stopped
this year that the Thanksgiving games will
be at an end, if the results this year show
that the disorders cannot be checked.
Thus it is reasonable to suppose that the
collegians will conduct themselves in a
manner more BETTING university men than
in previous years.
The Yale News yesterday said that while
mnch of what had Influenced public opin-
ion was the result of exaggerated press re-
ports of the actions of persons who are not
college students, yet there Is always GER
tain student element by whom self respect
and the reputation of their college seems
to be lost sight of on such occasions, and
that 1t Is this class that should realize how
seriously the matter is regarded and how
much depends on the after results of the
game this year. 1t further adds that every
Yale man who attends the game ought to
feel that he has part to play in using his
influence to the utmost extent in removing
any cause of public criticism.
The New York police department are
preparing for special effort to preserve
good order this year, and any hilarious
student who falls into their hands may ex-
pect to be dealt with severely.

THANKSGIVING

Uncle Sam does take a
day off now and then. So
do his children-the states,
Sometimes to celebrate a
great national event. Some
times to drop tears and flow
ers beside the last resting :
place of those whose lives
became the purchase price of
national peace and prosper
ity.
To-day we paus. for
Thanksgiving.
To look back a year and
recount the mercies of a
supremely benehcent Father.
To look around and find the
less fortunate, bestowing up
on them some gift as wit
ness to the gratitude which
should stir our own hearts.
To look up out of the whirl
and clamor of business, en-
deavoring to get our relative
bearing to the things not
seen and eternal. To look
ahead with hope and conf
dence to the hidden destiny
which each coming day
metes out to us.
Time sounds the roll call
and up from the Gulf States
over from the Golden Gate,
down from the Provinces
and perchance from across
the seas will come trooping
homeward scattered members
of various households. Va
cant chairs, silent voices, bus
mess reverses may shadow
the festive scene but should
not be suffered to check the
rising tide of graft ude which
wise reflection must excite.
Trials like medicine, il
taken properly and faithfully
conduce to vigorous mora
health. Even this great
American nation cropping
about in the dark to find the
keys to imprisoned wealth
will doubtless come out into
greater light, less anxious tc
worship gold and more dis
posed to worship Almighty
God.
What abundant cause we
have for Thanksgiving. A
peace with all the world. A
peace with ourselves. NJ
famine. No pestilence. NJ
death dealing earthquake
On the other hand, abundan
harvests. A country rich ii
natural resource, rich il
muscle and mechanism, ricl
in intellectual acumen, rich il
patriotic citizenship and rio
in charity and true brother
hood as witnessed in dali
ministrations and in the sys
tematic planning for tn
unfortunates of this flares
