CLOCK ALL OF GLASS.
Bohemian Workman Produces Work
ing Model After Six Years Of Labor.

A somewhat futile feat Of painstak-
Ing ingenuity has been accomplished
after six years of continuous work In
the construction of a working clock,
every part of which except the springs
is made of glass. The constructor Is
a Bohemian glass polisher named
Joseph Bayer, who lives in Theresien-
thai and who is now II years old.
The plates and pillars which form
the framework are of glass and are
bolted together with glass screws. The
dial plate. hands. shafts and cog
wheels are of glass, and glass wedges
and pins are used for fastening the va
iious parts of the running gear to-
gether.
All these parts are ground to the
average proportions of the metal parts
of other clocks Of the same size. The
teeth of the cogwheels are cut with
minute exactness. Only the balance
wheel is heavier and thicker than it
would be in an ordinary clock, but it
Is fashioned 80 as to properly con-
troll the movement Of the machine.
Like the clock itself, the key with
which it Is wound is of glass. The
completion of the work was a mat
ter of infinite pains. Some of the
parts had to be made over and over
again as often al 40 times before a
clock that would go and keep time
was produced. The builder sets a
price on the finished model of $500
marks, or about 1925. Labor is cheap

The Temple Library

The announcement that Mr.. and Mrs.
David S. Lehman would endow library
for Temple Emanuel in memory of their
beloved daughter, Louise, who departed
this life on April the second, 1904, has
brought forth most favorable comments
from the Jewish press of the country
In a leading editorial the Jewish Review
and Observer of Cleveland says the fol
lowing:
Worthy of Emulation.
Mr. and Mrs. David Lehman, of Den
yer, Colorado, donated the sum of two
hundred and fifty dollars toward the
foundation of library containing
standard Jewish works in memory of
their daughter There should be IL
brary of standard Jewish works con-
nected with every synagogue, especially
in smaller communities 1t would be
well if some Of our wealthy co-religion-
lists would show more liberal spirit
toward congregational activities in re-
gard to financial support
The diffusion of Jewish literature is
an essential factor in the advancement
of Judaism, and those who are instru-
mental in promoting this are comforting
great blessing upon American Israel,
and what con be more appropriate than
to perpetuate the memory OF a beloved
one by making a donation in their name
that will benefit the living, and what is
more elevating than a good book? The
literature of the Jew offers vast oppor-
tunities for intellectual culture.

Question

uuceeS, Dut 1eaf tnOSe,
Question who commit the acts OF
Zimri and yet, demand the reward Of
Phineas,'' may well be applied to our
so-called "liberal" Puritans. They are
more dangerous than the old, fanatic
champions Of the ''blue laws because
they are less sincere. They too would
like to deprive the masses OF their Sun
day recreations and amusements, in or
der to force them to go to church. They
too have neither the manhood nor the
honesty to demand the closing OF the
high-toned clubs on Sundays for fear
of offending the rich pew-owners OF fash
ionable churches, who on the Day OF
the Lord become intoxicated with
champagne But, the poor mans club
(the salOon) must be closed, his concert
hall and Sunday theater must not be al
lowed to open their doors. Yet, in their
arguments for such apparent injustice
and inequality before the law, our lib
eral'' friends differ most widely from the
old fashioned zealots and bigots. Know
ing only too well that birthstone and the
fires of hell can no longer frighten the
people into submission to the dictates OF
the church, they employ modern and
even "scientific' arguments to catch the
llnwary Sociology is called into requl-
stion for the purpose Of catching the
guleless in order to accomplish in this
country the very same object which the
out and out fanatic Puritans are so
anxious to achieve.
10 deceive the people, not trained in
logical augmentation, the writer OF an
editorial in Unitarian weekly speaks OF
the movement of butchers, BARRIERS, work
ing girls, etc, to enjoy a day off after
six days of hard labor Now, who de-
MES the necessity for a weekly day OF
rest? But the writer conveniently for
gets that for the vast millions OF those
people who want to enjoy ''their day
off, recreation is as indispensable, III
fact more so, than it is for the rich men,
bers of some social clubs. A mere day
of rest without what Isaiah calls in the
famous 5sth chapter "Oneg" (Pleasure)
amounts to nothing. Now, no matter
what orthodox or so-called liberal tenn
perance women or feminine men may
think about it, the fact remains, that for
millions of men and women who as
rule stand morally much higher than the
average cranky water-saints (Wasser-
Heilige) and apostles of weak cider,

hall in company with wife, sons, daugh-
ters and congenial company listening to
fine music and drinking a few glasses OF
good beer or wine, is a most innocent
recreation. 1t is also a fact, most gall
ing to dry as dust preachers, that in
large cities, the sensible people who for
tunately are in the majority, prefer a
good German or English play, Sunday
evening, to the sermons which they hear
in an average church. We can well I'M
agine how, for instance, the majority OF
ministers must feel when they preach be-
fore empty benches, while many theaters
are crowded to their utmost capacity
Sunday afternoons and evenings. But,
instead of reproaching themselves for
their inability to draw the people to their
respective churches, they devise all sorts
of schemes to close Sunday theaters, Sun
day concerts and Sunday saloons. Vain
encteavor Even, if they should for
while succeed, their churches will still
remain empty.
We are sorry and surprised that man
of the standing Of Jenkin Lloyd Jones,
for whom we entertain the highest re-
gard should have allowed his "Unity
to be made the mouthpiece OF blind ia
naticism. From a ''liberal" minister
we would not have expected it, Judaism
encourages moderation, but not prohibl-
ton and abstinence. A Jewish temper
anceman is almost unknown. In our
Jewish Sunday-schools we would not al
low child to take pledge not to touch
liquor In old Judaism the Nazir, i. e.
the man who took the vow not to drink
wine or other Intoxicating drinks, had to
bring a sin-offering? Our sages in the
Talmud ask: Why a sin-otfering? Be
cause he abstained from drinking wine
When some people wanted to abstain
from wine, because after the destruction
of the Temple in Jerusalem wine could
no longer be sacrificed upon the altar
Rabbi sarcastically told them: Then
you must also abstain from drinking
water, because water was also poured
upon the altar as a sacrifice.
When we compare such passages which
can be multiplied, with the remark of
the editorial writer of ''Unity,' who is
not ashamed to say, that the cry OF
personal liberty savors Of eighteenth
century radicalism,' we can indeed
proudly say, that the so-called benighted
Rabbis of the Talmud were, when 1t
comes to the conceptions of true liberty
and progress, far superior to the so
called modern liberals. If the editor OF
''Unity'' endorses the narrow views OF
the writer of the article in question: we
have a very, very poor opinion OF his
federalism" Then he is one more OF

teal results in effecting Anti-Jewish
legislation, our enemies will be absolutely
pOWerless. Once more we will find out
the truth of the old German adage:
