In the exercise OF their rights and prerogatlves
A congregation is maintained for the spiritual
welfare and improvement of its members. The
building, school-rooms, and even the minister
are only accessories They are simply to give
the member the opportunity, and if he take
not advantage of them or they do not lead him
on the path of nobler, unselfsh life they may be

are in vain.
The sages of old knew full we'll the need of
each member doing his duty to the community.

patton in all its undertakings. 1t has a claim
upon the mental capital of it's members as well
upon their purses. Rabbi Tarphon taught,

the work, yet no one has right to excuse him
self from doing his share" Ibidem 21.)
Says Emerson Essay on Wealth. p. s5),
Every man fails to make his place good in
the world, unless he not only pays. his debt,
but also adds something to the common
wealth."
In religious body the common wealth"
is made of its spiritual activities, of its noble
unselfish lives, of its efforts toward broader,
deeper, and better existence, of its endeavors
to allay pain, to soften sorrow, to relieve dis
tress, to succor the needy, protect the friend
less, clothe the naked, and feed the hungry.
And every man. woman, and child has the duty
to add to this wealth.
There was legend narrated at the Parlia-
ment of Religions. 1t may appear somewhat
humorous, but as has been we'll said, "humor
is an invisible tear through visible smile.n
There was an old woman who for many centu-
ries had suffered tortures in the flames of hell.

earthly career. One day she saw in the far
away distance an angel taking his flight
through the blue skies. With the whole
strength of her voice she called to him. The
call must have been desperate for the angel

Wnen you reach the tnroDe OF God, !" she
said, tell Him that miserable creature has
suffered more than she can bear, and asks to be
delivered from her tortures"
The angel promised to do SO and flew away.
When he had transmitted his message, God
said, ASK her whether she has ever done any
good to anyone in her life''
The woman strained her memory in search
Of one good act in her sinful past, and all at
once she cried, . I've got one. One day gave

SELFISH CONFINEMENT
AND
COMMUNAL DUTY.
AsERMoN BY RABBI EDWARD N. cALIscH


peace will there be peace to you. Ger. xxx -
Content has always been valued as one of
the most highly-prized of human possessions.
Poets have sung its praises philosophers have
spoken of its beauty teachers have ever urged
man to its attainment. The contented man is
pictured as the only really happy man, and the
disconnected is the embodiment of unhappi-
ness.
This picture is true in certain measure and
to certain extent but by no means wholly
%. While absolute contentment may be q
very valuable thing for the individual who
possesses it. it is hardly SO for the race at large
or for the community in which that individual
may live. Had all the world been absolutely
contented with their lot, it is barely possible
that any human progress had ever been made
That the race has advanced and that improve
ments have been made in every branch of HUI
man existence, is due to the fact that there
have been some hearts filled with divine dis
content There have ever been some brave
souls that would not remain satisfisd with the
conditions of existence, but that sought here
and there and in q Thousand ways to better
things. ExploSers, teachers, thinkers, discov-
erers, and inventors have been busy, trying,
testing, experimenting drilling into the bowels
Of the earth, penetrating the primeval jungles
diving into the depths of the ocean, scanning
the armament by night and by day, pulling to
pieces flowers, forests, fish, birds, beasts and
minerals, peering into natures secret arcana
questioning the stars and the planets, follow
ing the lightning's fash, listening to the surge
Of the sea, the song of the wind and the sono
rous roll of the thunder, that they may enlarge
the boundaries of human knowledge and widen
the limits of human activities. To them, in
deed, is the world indebted that we stand to-
day where we do, and that physically, men
tally and morally our life is better and broader
than our fathers.
What is true of the world and the human
race at large, is no less true of single nation
state, community. or organization of any kind
Every member of q body of people, no matter
how large or how small, has the duty, impera-
tive and profound, to work for the betterment
of that body, to give his share of labor and effort
not, only for its maintenance, but its improve
ment. There must be constant effort for i'm
provement There can be no standing still
Hillel we'll said, 40 1D,o Nj, who
does not increase, decreases Sayings of the
Fathers I, 49, Aud jeremiah we'll understood
the necessity for communal duty when he urg-
ed the people to work and pray for the well
fare of the city whittier they had been exiled.
(xxix-7.
There is unfortunately large class Of men
to whom this admonition seems to be given in
vain They have not the slightest conception

TO perform the simplest duty OF cluZenSmp
They can complain if there be defects in the
management of affairs. and sometimes when
the defect is only imaginary, but to take &C
tive measures to remedy the defect, or to take
never done by them.
There are men who are members of lodges,
societies, associations, and of the congregation,
who rarely, if ever, attend meetings. never
serve upon committees; and in nowise or mao
ner do more to maintain and build up these
communal institutions than merely to pay their
dues or the easements that may be levied
against.
Conspiciously 80 may say is this tue Of
our Jewish lodges and of our congregation. We
have members who do absolutely nothing more
than pay their dues They never attend .
meeting; are rarely seen at service, and are
SO hopelessly Indifferent that no one ever thinks
of asking them to do anything for the good of
the community. To do so spontaneously is
out of the question. There are men in the
community who have been blessed in their life's
efforts. They have achieved Independence and
competence. Yet their lives are conducted
utterly and solely for themselves and their
families.
They are perfectly contented to let things 20
on as they do. They do not care to interfere.
They don't want the bother. They are willing
to pay toward the maintenance of communal
institutions but cannot think giving any of
their time or their ability or their labor Their
lives are conducted on selfish basis. They
are content to plod for themselves So long as
their wishes and the wishes of their wives are
gratified, they look no higher. So long as
they can occupy a position in society, maintain
their homes and their equipages and perform
their social functions, they care little for the
community. They are interested in, and regu.
lar attendants at only such associations as graft
fy their pleasures, contribute to their enjoy
ment and aid their plans. They give of their
time or their means to other organizations only
in SO far as necessity demands, or as a decent
respect for the opinion of the community
drives them. They organize no movement for
the benefit or relief of other members of the
community and do not go into these movements
unless they are approached by person they
do not care to refuse, or they fear that their
withdrawal will ipjure their social prestige.
They are sel6shly content, they care not for COM
munal duty.
But want to say, that mans duty to the
congregation is not performed when he puyshis
dues, no matter how great or how small they are
are, nor his duty to his state answered. when
he merely pays his taxes. No man has right
to think that he has fulfilled his obligation to
either by the payment of the accident of taxes

CHEAP TRAVEL.
An Agreeable Way Of Going
Across tho Continent.
Tourist Parties That Make the Trip
In . speedy and Comfortable
Manner at nut Little
Expense.

It is now possible to cross the CONT
nent to San Francisco and make friends
on the way and have as jolly time as
when you cross the Atlantic on fast
liner in the same number of days, says
the New York Sun. That did not used
to be so. The old way was TO take a
numbered seat in q sleeping car and
go through with tho chance that no
one but the conductor and the train
newsboys would ever speak to you.
The new way is by means of what are
called tourists excursions. They are
run at second-class rates, but on the
fastest time and with special cars The
conductors viii take a first-class pas
senger If such a one should offer him
self There are at least two of these
companies running personally conduct
cd excursions over opposition lines and
both advertise very low rates and
quick time. The cars are plenty good
enough for anybody. but are not SO
ornate as the regular palace cars. In
them the people start at New York or
Boston and go through without change,
eating their meals in dining-cars ont
as far as Council Bluffs IL they wan. to
and stopping at dining stations along
the rest of each route. 4 great many
who push to the farthest extreme that
economy which is the distinctive char
acteristic of such carloads carry their
OWL fare with them in baskets and
either buy nothing but tea and coffee
or even make that for themselves on
the road.
The passengers in the first-class
coaches on the same trains are quickly
made aware of the fact that their
trains carry these tourist parties, for
they hear the laughter and singing and
rornpiug of the tourists who by the
end of the second day out are all &C
quainted with one another and bent
on having jolly and fraternal time.
They share their delicacies- their pa
