The Jewish outlook., 1907-05-24
France.

The law for the Separation of Church
and State has deprived religious admin
istrations of the control of institutions
which are not of strictly religious char
acter. Thus the Jewish Consistoire Of
Paris is no longer able to manage its
three elementary schools which have now
been transferred to the Ecole Normale
Israelite Orientale (where teachers for
schools of the Alliance Israelite are
trained) this establishment being recog-
nized by the State as one of public util-
ity.
NJ Seeches, Rebbi at the Saint Etienne
(who was for time minister at Rams
gate) has been appointed Grand Rabbin
of Lille Several other posts in prov
inces are at present vacant, but as the
communities do not know whether under
the new system they are at liberty to pay
the salaries of Rabbis, they are not in
a hurry to fill the vacancies. But in the
interests of French Judaism it is desir-
able that the elections should take place
without much further delay, for relig-
ious indifference is making too rapid pro-
gress.

Palestine.

Rabbi Eliyahou Moyshe Panigel, the
Acting Haham Bashi of Jerusalem, has
issued statement in which he requests
that all contributions for the benefit of
Sephardim Jews should be sent to him
or to the banker Valero, while all gifts
for the Ashkenazim Jews should be for
warded as before to Chief Rabbi Samuel
Salant Until Rabbi Panigel's appoint
ment there were differences of opinion as
to who were the recognized almoners for
the Sephardim.

Switzerland.

According to the report of the Can
tonal School at Aargau Jewish pupils
are not dispensed from writing on their
Sabbath A request from the parent OF
a Jewess for such dispensation was re-
fused on the ground that attendance at
the school is voluntary, not obligatory,
and that anyone frequenting the Can
tonal School must submit to the regula
tions or leave the institution.

The Tirailleurs are continuing their
attacks on unoffending Jews. A number
of these native soldiers have invaded the
Jewish quarter at Susa, where they vio
lated and wounded many persons Of the
Jewish faith.

Simply because a bee has no ears on
the sides Of its head it Is no sign what
ever that it is wholly without some
sort Of an auditory nerve. This ID
proved by the fact that grasshoppers,
crickets. iocusts and flies all have their
ears situated In queer places under
the wings. on the middle Of the body
and even on the sides OF their legs.
The common house fly does its hear
Ing by means OF some little rows Of
corpuscles which are situated on the
knobbed threads which occupy the
place which are taken up BY the hind
wings Of other species Of insects. The
garden slug or shelless snail has its
organs Of hearing situated on each
side Of its neck. and the common
grasshopper has them on each OF its
broad, fat thighs. In some OF the
smaller insects they are at the bases
Of the wings and IN others on the bot
tom Of the feet.
