''In my last annual report your trus-
tees suggested the advisability that an
effort be made to lift the mortgage OF
$500 still resting on our temple. The
great calamity that befell our brethren
in Russia, and other matters, taxed our
Jewish community to the utmost. The
project was therefore abandoned for the
present Our communal activities may
be classed as religious, educational, phil
anthropic and social all of these having
taken root in our society. Religion as
.expounded by our worthy and eloquent
rabbi, is fast making it's impress upon
our community. It is the religion Of the
prophets the religion of right living and
right thinking, based upon righteousness
and justice No one attending our SER
vices can fail to be benefited. The schol
arly discourses Of our rabbi are educa-
tional in the highest degree, and al
though our temple is we'll filled every
Friday evening. our members should
crowd it to it's full capacity.
'I will now turn your attention to
the education of our dear children, in
whom we all take the greatest pride and
interest Our religious school is second
to none anywhere. 1t does ones heart
good to see beautiful and bright chill

sung by the children, the prayers Of

We thus plant early the seeds of loyalty
to our faith in their hearts You should
take more interest in this school, which
means more interest in your children.
You should make it practice to visit

Pay of Country School Teachers

The cause of higher education is
in a tlourishing condition in Mis-
souri,. A credit of 1906, 900 to the
state seminary moneys appears in
the auditors report for 1905. In
general, the public schools of the
state are in satisfactory shape.
But in considerable number of
counties it will be found that the
teachers are paid less than is Oh
tanned by the commonest manual
labor. This fact was in mind when
the Nissonri state teachers associ-
alton, at its recent meeting, resolv-
I'd that the state superintendent be
requested to report the result OF
his annual investigation of salaries
paid teachers in the city, village
and rural schools in the state.
Formerly, this item was included
in the superintendent reports, and
the surprisingly small pay OF
teachers in some counties was much
commented on in the election OF
superintendent four years ago.
Another resolution passed by the
association will put additional
work on tho teachers who are most
poorly paid. 1t reads: ''BeIiev-
ing that the elements of practical
agriculture should be taught i.l
every public school in Missouri,
especially ia the rural schools, &c

assembly be requested to pass Il
