Tribute OF Respect.

The following preamble and reso-
lutions were recently adopted by the
Conneross Sunbeam Club:
Whereas, our Heavenly Father, in
His wisdom, Justice and mercy, saw
fit, on March 4th, 1905, to remove
from our midst our esteemed and eff
cient treasurer, Rubie Hunsinger,
whose memory we cherish, whose eX-
ample we trust to epulate, whose
heart was ever in duty and obedience
to those in authority and relief for
those in trouble, therefore be it re-
solved
|. That while we humbly bow to
the will of God, knowing that we
are His and that He "doeth all things
WE'LL" the Conneross Sunbeam
Club realizes that it has lost one of
its most useful and influential mem
bers in the death of Ruby, who to-
day reflects her rays in the sunshine
of Gods holy atmosphere.
2. That the church, Sunday school
and community have each sustained
the loss of one who, although SO
young, yet was never found wanting
as leader in any good enterprise.
3. That page in our minute
book be dedicated to her memory
and that copy of these resolutions
be sent to the Baptist Courier and
to our county papers for publication,
and also to the bereaved family of
which she was a member.

More than half of mankind over sixty

Civilized Indians Want Prohibition.

The five civilized tribes in the Indian
Territory in convention assembled,
have declared in favor of separate
Statehood and also, it may be added,
of prohibition as a feature of the
constitution. The report of the pro-
ceedings says that "the question of
prohibition enters into the question
of Statehood here, as the Indians are
agreed that the sale of liquor would
be detrimental to the best interests
of the people, and for this reason the
prohibitionists are making a strong
fight to include the prohibition
clause in the constitution.

Jewish
Virility

ars would scintillate, they need, as
they think, but grow facetious over the
glowing pretentions and the sombre
achievements of American Judaism Yet
for all our pessimism real or assured,
the salient fact in American Jewish
life is its astounding virility. For
surely, since average mortals are not
outright fools, the conscious efforts Of
men deliberately directed toward
given end is no mean criterion of the
strength Of a cause, and though the
American Jewish body, as whole, may
suffer from the lack Of correlation of
parts, yet it must be conceded that this
body possesses many organisms and,
with definite functions associations,
societies, not only organized, and delib-
erately for the furtherance and achieve
ment of Jewish ends, but actually meet
ing regularly at stated intervals compar-
atively close together. The Central Con-
ference Of American Rabbis just closed
its seventeenth session in Cleveland; the
Jewish Chautauqua Society is about to
convene in Atlantic City; add to these

cations, the American Jewish Historical

The Jewish Hospital For Con-
sumptives

An important event during the month of
July is the annual meeting of the National
Jewish Hospital for Consumptives.
This magnificent institution, located at
Denver Colorado, while denOminated Jew
ish. is not sectaran in it's beneficent work.
and it is destined to play an important part
in the philanthropy of the age.
At the annual meeting, to be convened in
Atlantic City Wednesday, July 26th, in
the Royal Palace hotel, matters of great i'm
portance will be brought up. In addition to
the presidents message and other official re-
ports, excellent papers, pertinent to the sub
jects, will be read.
1t is anticipated that most interesting and
instructive meetings will be held, as the sub
jects which will be presented are of vital in
terest not only to the institution and its
present inmates, but also to the hundreds
of sufferers who are the waiting list"
anxOusy desirOus of availing themselves OF
the opportunities offered in Denver to be i'm
proved in health if not entirely relieved of
the distressing ailment from which they
suffer.
Among the magnificent institutions es-
tablished by Jewish charity the National Hos
pital for Consumptives is entitled to more
than passing word Founded for scien-
tific purpose, it's management in the face OF
adverse conditions has succeeded in placing
it in the fore of kindred charities, even to
the extent of making it National" because
it's doors are open to all sufferers, Jew and
non-Jew alike.
When it's scope is thoroughly appreciated
there is no reason to doubt that 1t will re-
ceive the unqualified support of every hu-
manitarian, for it's plans are based upon the
most sublime intentions, creating and operat-
ing great institution where consumptives
are treated and careu for gratuitously, no
matter what their religious beliefs.
The Jewish Ledger appreciates the spe-
cial invitation extended by Mr.. Alfred Null
Ter, the efficient and able secretary, on the
part of the executive committee, as person
ally, and while find it impossible to be
present corporeally, will be with them in
the spirit, with the assurance that if our
wishes and humble labors will avail, the
Jewish National Hospital for Consumptives
will in the near future become what it is
destined to be, monument to humanity, the
joy of all Americans and the recipient of am
pie funds to carry on in perpetuity it's
magnificent and beneficent wOrk.-Jewish

d nal b flCn WIN lIS seven dlluldl QlS-
trict conventions, exclusive Of the consti-
tutional session Consider, moreover, that
the membership Of these various bodies
is for the most part different, as their
raisOns d'etre are conceived to be dis
tinct, and that the youthful element in
them all is SO preponderant as frequently
to have excited comment, and one must
be stolid, indeed, who would interpret
all this life in terms OF lassitude, who
does not feel that the American Jew ap-
preciates his heritage, and realizes his
responsibility to the future.
Nor are the achievements of these or
ganized bodies in American Jewry-the
oldest OF them is yOung-aS meagre as
the scintillating scribes pretend. How
ever, rabbinical deliberatiOn and caution
may be judged, the Union Prayer Book
surely, to be brief in instance through
out, has articulated American Jewishness
in part. Whatever may be sald OF par
ticular books, the Jewish Publication So
ciety has certainly made accessible to
English speaking Jews treasures of the
Jewish genius of the past; to have the
Russian passport question settled favor
ably to the Jews is more than a mere
windmill victory for the Union of Amer
lean Hebrew Congregations nor can the
B 'rithian tussle with the immigration
giant reflect dishonorably upon the order
And these are but single instances of
positive achievement gathered from the
history Of only few of the Jewish bod
les that make up the Jewish life of our
day.
Our scintillating Jewish scribes,
therefore, put a wrong estimate upon
things when they comment in an un-
necessarily caustic vein upon the status
of American Judaism, or upon the work
Of Jewish bodies. Say what they will,
history shows that American Judaism is
virile; that it's manifestations, it's organi-
cations, are manifold and vigorous and
youthful, consciously striving for GER
tain ends and attaining rich results. Yet
this fact, too, is true: Our organized
bodies, l. e., the Jews consciously enlisted
in the Jewish cause, are few in number,
indeed, as compared to the many who,
Jews by profession, do not in any wise
identify themselves actively, i. e., con-
sciously, with Judaism. But this is a
structure, not on the status Of Judaism,
or on the value Of Jewish organizations,
but on the weakness and the thought
lessness Of individual Jews.
The Jewish heart is awake, though
many Jews are asleep. And would that
a recognition of our weakness would
spur us to the remedying Of it! If

strength to do it? Affiliation, i. e., con-

certainly seems well worth the trial.
