grander objects of the order still remain and should
appeal to every Jew for loyalty
The Bsne Birth is composed to-day, as it has ever
been, OF the representative Jews throughout the
world. The order has accomplished immense good
IN the past through its orphan homes and asylums;
through the channels of charity and has been largely
instrumental in breaking down the barriers of pre,1-
dice and of planting the seeds of tolerance and of
brotherly love.
You cannot do justice to yourselves and to your
families by resigning from such grand order whose
monuments OF nobeness and charity grace this fair
land OF America from Massachusetts to Puget's
sound from the lakes to the Gulf Of Mexico. Stick
to the old ship, feed the needy protect the orphan
and hold up the proud of this glorious order.

Zan9wilI on "Jslooo accusation"

The Daily Chronicle of London contained a strk-
ing review by Mr. l. Zangwill of the new book on ST.
William, of Norwich In the course of his comments
Mr. Zangwl introduces the following tragic per sonal
experience: 1T is rather the Christian who has per
petuated blood-feud than the Jew If l may be al
lowed to contribute my own experience to this
CHASTITY subject when was weeks old and res
dent IN the goodly city of Bristol, my mother (who
IS, OF course, the authority for the storv) was
induced to entrust me for a day to the care
OF a Christian nursemaid-an uneducated girl of
slxteen-but becoming uneasy she returned unex-
pectedy to inquire after me- She found the girl
playing IN the street. and was assured that |
was asleep, but insisting entering the house she
found me screaming in my cradle my head covered
With pillow, my face black, and my mouth full of
blood The girl confessed finally, that in revenge for
the death of Christ, she had with pins prcked a
bloody sign of the my tongue The dra
matte climax of the story is that it was the Dav of
Atonement. For it to enable my mother to
spend the day in the synagogue that / was left in
charge OF this stranger, and had she never returned
should probably have never had the pleasure of re-
viewing this tale of Thomass. The ignorant girls
odIum theolog1cumisq quite ineligible and orgvable
To Christianity of systematic childtorture on
her account would be about as fair as the bio ID ac
cusatlon if individual Jews had ever really murdered
individual Christians. But the Jew has always pi-
ousy averted his eyes from such sanguinary images
content to pray with Milton Avenge Lord, thy
slaughtered saints"
