Brothers Relinquish
$4,000 to Widow

Herman Goldsmith and William w.
Goldsmith, by their voluntary act, have
turned over an estate worth SIS, 900, left
them by WILL to the widow Of their
brother S. Goldsmith.
Mrs Elmira Emily Goldsmith, the
young widow Of the decedant, has quail
fed as executrix Of the estate Of which
she is now the sole heir.
The will by which the estate was left
to the two brothers Of the decedent was
drawn April 18, 1898, while the testator
was unmarried. By it's terms the sur
viving brothers were to share it equally
and no other terms were mentioned
Mr. Goldsmith was married November
II, 1903, to the wife who survives him.
The attorney for Mrs. Goldsmith called
the attention Of the court to this docu-
ment and suggested that there are Colo
RADIO decisions which hold that a subse-
quent marriage revokes will, but that
no contest would be made in this case,
as the heirs under the will were in court
ready to relinquish all claim. The
brothers then made a statement to the
court in which they said they desired
the, widow to have all the property

A course Of lectures has been of much
interest to the boys. Among those who
have spoken to the children are Rabbi
Friedman, DR.. Merrill and Mr.. Bates
of the Juvenile Court. Mr.. Wright OF
the detention house, Mr.. Pershing Of the
Charity Organization society will ad-
dress the boys next Sunday evening.
Mr.. Zwetow, who is always ready to
help in good work, has recently joined
our staff Of workers, as has also Mr.. j.
Cohn.
The kitchen-garde class has been
under the leadership of Miss Salomon
Mrs Lee We'll and Miss Patek. The first
class will finish the course in week or
two. Due notice will be given Of the
exhibition Of their work, when the
friends of the settlement will have an
opportunity to judge Of the good work
these ladies have DONE The present To-
cation of the settlement is Polish s hall,
on West Colfax avenue. We cordially
invite visitors to come and see what we
are doing. The rooms are open Sunday,
Monday and Wednesday evenings and
Tuesday afternoon. The Importance Of
the work cannot help impressing itself
on all thoughtful men and women.
Will not the Jewish community con-
tribute to this cause without a house-to-
house canvas for funds? The Outlook
will receive and acknowledge through its
columns any contributions for this work.

Proeress of Council
Settlement Work

The work of the settlement is pro-
crossing wonderfully when one considers
the drawbacks in the shape of lack OF
funds and lack Of suitable rooms. The
efficient and enthusiastic corps OF
workers have been faithful and success
full in their work The chairman Of the
Boys and Girls clubs, Mr.. Milton
Schoyer and Miss Amy Salomon, have
shown that they would be successful as
settlement workers anywhere. They
both possess in wonderful degree the
quality that makes the successful worker
with children. They, together with
Miss Florence Patek, Miss Tina Gar
barsky, Mr.. Nate "Rothchild and DR..
Grammar have not missed a single
meeting Of their respective clubs and
their fatihfulness is being rewarded by
the great improvement in the deport-
mcnt of the children. Rabbi William S.
Friedman will on next Monday evening
inaugurate a course Of lectures on
"Jewish Ethics,'' these lectures to be
given bi-monthly. Mr. Ernest Minis will
lecture to the older boys on "Civil
Government, and DR.. M. j. Krohn is
teaching geography to class of work

future, give a course of lectures on

The Honesty of the Jew


to time, to indulge in wild and reckless
generalizations about Jewish honesty.
Indeed, the subject is a favorite one
with the anti-Semites, who identify the
,rara avis of a Jewish burglar with the
whole House of Israel, and tar the entire
Jewish people with the brush Of dis
honesty. Only recently the genial
cynic, who is just retiring from the rep
resentation Of Northampton in Parlia-
ment, allowed his mocking humor to dis
port itself in the columns Of Truth over
the congenial subject Of Jewish business
morality. The readers Of that curious
journal were regaled with an essay
which Jewish lad of thirteen is sup
posed to have written, and in which the
precocious youth, drawing up an ambi-
tious plan Of his future career, displays
an extraordinary mastery Of the shady
tactics Of commerce. Mr. Labouchere s
comment on this far-fetched document
was that the children Of Israel sat all
periods of life often know thing or two
more than their Christian brethren" "
though we are afraid there is little that
they can teach the guileless member for
Northampton. Those who are inclined to
take these foolish allegations seriously
may be recommended to obtain the re-
cently-published report Of the Hebrew
Free Loan Society in the United States.
This is body which aid tradesmen and
mechanics desiring to establish them
selves in a small way and helps students
to attend college. Loans are granted by
it to mechanics in order to enable them
to pay entrance fees in trade unions, and
for other purposes. In it's report it
states that Ii, ,573 loans, ranging from
SIS to 5000 were granted during the year;
and of this sum only $500 are bad
debts-a loss Of one-seventh Of one per
cent. In thirteen years the loans have
aggregated two millions and the losses
less than half Of one per cent. If we
turn to the last annual report of the
Jewish Board Of Guardians in London,
which also grants loans to deserving ap-
plicants, we find that the amount writ
ten off in 1904 was about two per cent,
(Which" says the report considering
the slackness Of trade during the past
year, cannot be taken as excessive For
the whole thirty eight years of the Loan
Committee s existence the percentage OF
bad debts does not exceed two and one
half per cent. These figures supply
striking test of Jewish integrity. Com
pared with them the foolish aspersions

THE STORY OF FLORA MACDONALD
A. McGregor, Bolton, North Carolina.
In the Toronto PRESBYTERIAN.

Flora Macdonald whose memory is revered bv
every true hearted of Scotland once lived in
the sunny State of North Carolina. at a place
known in her day Cross Creek but now called
Fayetteville. The name of the brave but gentle
Scotswoman has been carved into the history of
the state and her life is held up the present day
as bright model for all. It was in North Caro-
INA with its blue skies and gently sipbinp nines
that she passed through the most trying time of
her experience, that crucial test that comes 70
every life, either to crush it out forever and IN
leave it wreck of what it might have been or
To develop 1T and grid it with new strength
1t was in 1774, not long after Flora Macdonald
had made herself famous the world over nv her
rescue of the unfortunate Prince Charlie that ar
companied by her husband, Allen, and her children

countrJmen were already settled there driven into
exile by the political troubles of the old world
When the MacDonalds arrived i'm wilmington q
reception was held in their honor and the building
in which it was given is one Of the historical
points Of interest in that city. All the world loves

MONTREAL.

The Synod of North Carolina at the fall meeting of
1905 appointed committee looking to the purchase
of suitable site the mountains for a summer re-
sort under Christian influences, for the holding OF
summer schools, assemblies and religious meetings OF
various kinds, and for homes for our people,
The committee has selected Montreal on account of
its proximity to the railroad its central location its
altitude, its delightful climate its beautiful
scenery, its water supply and general availability for
such purposes
We have obtained an option this property until
the 18th of next September Inasmuch as this place
is central to the whole Southern Presbyterian Church
the committee wishes to interest in this scheme Pres
byterians from all sections. For this purpose the
committee will issue a pamphlet giving full
description of the place and its advantages ustrat-
with thirty haf-tone cuts showing hotel cottages
and scenery. Montreal is on the Southern Railway
sixteen miles east of Asheville two miles from Black
Mountain station. 1t is nearly central to the
whole South and convenient of access as any place
in the Appalachian Mountains be- 1t is a tract
of land consisting of a valley cove shaped like an
irregular triangle comprising about 800 acres The
apex of this triangle is Graybeard Mountain. It's
eastern leg is the main chain Of the Blue Ridges its
western leg is spur of the Blue Ridge descending
from Graybeard mountain to the level of the valley
The base of the triangle is open toward the South.
The altitude ranges from $500 feet at the entrance
of the grounds to $500 feet at the top of Graybeard
Mountain.
WHAT DO WE PROPOSE MONTREATP
First want to make it a place for summer
homes under Christian influences where our people
as cheaply they at home where the climate is
cool and refreshing, where the health is good where
they will have the advantage of good society in the
best sense of that term and where they have the
comforts and conveniences of home. All these things
