SEMINARY GROWS
SO NAMES ADDED TO JEW
ISL SCHOOL ROLL.
Constitution Is Adopted by Theological
Institution and Funds Subscribed.
object Is to Sustain the Faith.

Fifty names were placed on the roll OF
the Newark Branch of the Jewish Theo-
logical Seminary of America, organized
last night; 5000 was contributed to the
movement, officers we're elected, a consti-
tuition adopted and addresses in advocacy
of the new venture were heard.
The meeting was held in the Synagogue
Of the B'nai Abraham Congregation In
High street. Nearly every Jewish congre-
cation in the city was represented, and as
the branch is to be a general one, a large
number of persons not identified with any
of the local synagogues were also in at
tendance.
Phillip ], schotland, of Oil Hunterdon
street, a Newark lawyer, presided. The
speakers were the Rev. Julius Silberfeld,
of the Congregation B'nai Abraham; the
Rev. Jacob Kohn, of Syracuse; the Rev.
Charles I. Hoffman, Of the Congregation
Oheb Sholam; the Rev. LYMAN Brodsky,
of the Congregation Anshe Russia and
louis Marshall, of New York.
In his opening address Mr.. Schotland de-
clared that while he looked with pleasure
on the freedom accorded those of the
Jewish faith in this country, that very
freedom was a danger which, unless
guarded against, would lead followers Of
the religion to become lax in its observ-
ance. 1t was to keep their religious be-
liefs ever before them that this branch of
the seminary was to be instituted.
Mr.. Marshall, after his introduction by
Mr.. Schotland, described at some length
the needs and resources of the seminary.
It had been endowed, he said, with what
at the time of Its founding seemed like
an adequate sum-. but at present the ex-
penses were $4,000 per year, while the
income amounted to only $32, 900. He asked
not for financial support only, however,
but also for moral aid.
Officers were elected at the close of the
speaking as follows:
Philip j. Schotland, president; Rabbis
! Charles /. Hoffman, julius Silberfeld and
Hyman Brodsky, first, second and third
vice-presidents, respectively; Meyer
Abeles, who had been appointed temporary
secretary, permanent secretary; Samuel
NadeI, treasurer, and Meyer s. Hood, L.

PROSPERITY HAS MADE
US NEEDLESS. He SAYS.
Paterson Pastor Believes That "There L
a Political and Business Standard
of Honesty"

The local councils of the Junior Or
der of United American Mechanics at
tended divine service at the Park Ave-
nue. Baptist Church last night. A spe-
cial sermon on sChristian Patriotism
was preached by the Rev. Frank S.
Kenyon.
Mr.. Kenyon said in part:
IAN u~nwarranted optimism is a
great American folly. Long accuse
toned to unmixed prosperity, we have
become needless. A rude awakening
threatens our peaceful dreams Of
plenty. A vast horde of people, in fifty
different languages, are demanding all
the benefits of our Christian civiliza-
ton, while they assail b foundation
upon which that civilization rests.
"Our cities, overgrown and unwieldy,
having lost the power to govern them
selves, and having fallen an easy prey
to the. corrupt politician, have become
a stencil in the nostrils of every true
lover of his country and a menace to
u liberties.
1.-The people who desire good gov
eminent are always in the majority.
Our finest citizens, the men who own
and operate our great mills and fac
tories, w it to the people and u
cities to take the lead in our municipal
affairs.
I'VE are afflicted with a double stand
ard of honesty-one for political pur-
poses, and quite another in ordinary
business affairs. And when the liberty
loving patriotic people say, This thing
must stop!' we shall see the end of
graft"

RABBI FOSTER LECTURES
ON LAWS OF EVOLUTION.
Jews Elimination Is Impossible Because
His Ideas Are Fresh and Pure,
Declares Clergyman.

A large congregation listened TO the first
of a series of addresses to be given under
the direction of the Educational Alliance
by the Rev. Solomon Foster, Of Congrega-
tion B'nai Jeshurun, In Washington street,
yesterday afternoon. The address was de-
livered primarily to the auxiliary Of the
alliance, but as the lectures are public
many persons not identified with the move
ment were present.
The subject Of Mr.. Fosters address was
"The Application of the Laws of Evolution
to Religion The speaker traced the laws
Of self-activity, altruism and isolation as
prominent phases of evolution, and Illus
trated their bearing upon the spiritual de-
velopment or retrogression of mankind.
Mr.. Foster said In part:
The discovery of the law Of evolution
threatened at first the very existence OF
religion. for many thought that in the adj
of philosophy had to make to the law OF
growth and development, it would be dis
astrous to religion to conform its pos
tulates Of the existence of q Cod. me
principle of revelation, the existence Of the
soul and the immortality of mans spirit
ual part, to ~wel1-knOwn. verifiable laws.
But religion has come out Of the conflict
strengthened and puri1ed. And no PROOF
of it is clearer than the very laws OF
evolution which once were thought SUI
fietent to overturn the claims of religion,
by the lnlTQ Id VS. VI tNOiutiOh III ibN-
~viduality, which has brought about so
infinite a variety in the form and function
of the object in nature, we find when the
law is applied to the religious conscious
ness that the peculiar power which dlf-
ferentiates man from the beast and at
the same time gives tone and color to the
Individual life is the inner experience OF
a relationship with the Divine, a deep and
comforting consciousness of nearness TO q
Supreme Being. These are active and
helpful in proportion to this religious con.
seriousness to the law of the survival OF
the httest, equally potent in the spiritual
realm. Individuals, as we'll as groups or
individuals project their thoughts into the
world and through the groups through the
centuries, only by the depth of their feel
ing the dominance of their ideas, never ny
the favor or the whim of fortune. we
must constantly give answer 70 the per-
petnal question OF nature, why do you
live; what is the use of your existence?'
When ideas begin to weaken, when the
feelings are dissipated, the worth OF the
individual has ceased. This fact and
this fact alone has preserved the jew
through the centuries. While his ideas are
fresh and pure, while his feelings are real
and deep, it is simply impossible, to elm
mate him. God and nature need him in
the economies of the spiritual

Thrift and Economy Virtues

Too Much Boosting.

PATTERSON. Nov. 25.-"We are In
real danger of losing the old-fashioned
grace of thrift and economy. We need
TO learn how to save. l do not mean
to hoard. That Is very different we
must prepare for a rainy day. Learn

yesterday, preaching on Some Amer

said as a whole Americans are inclined
to boast. He added:

ton hat we are a grown-up natlon.
other nations laugh at this infant1le
trait of ours. 1t is time for us to cease
being childish and cultivate a serious
national dignity. Too many of our peo-
ple would rather be considered shrewd
and smart than true and straight.
This will grow upon us until we be-
come tricky and slippery. 1t will honey

Snealxjng in condemnation of overreach-

at pains our best people TO observe the
growth of the tendency to worship wealth.
-. a. aud al rl ut r
We unduly admire rich men simply be-
canse of their possessions; and we pant
to be rich ourselves. Too many OF us
would sacrifice almost anything for an un-
worthy end.
And, in a general way, our tone is alto
gether too materialistic. We yearn over
much for possessions, place and power. we
plan too much and think too often about
onr food, drink, case and comfort. The
material man is too much in evidence. We
run to surface display and neglect the
finer sides of our natures.
And after a long run of industrial pros
perity it is quite easy to develop the hanit
of living beyond our means. We feel that
we must crafty all of our whims and
fancies. We uncongciously come TO be
spendthrifts. We lose our s~elf-control and
know not what self-denial Is.

might term the expensive funerals, ex-
travngant weddings. costly tombstones and

at all afford the style they manifest.
Costly birthday and Christmas presents
