it is to be hoped that their efforts will
be crowned with success. The eX-
treme of yellow journalism does
not ever seem to be reached. Com
parisons are odious. but like religion,
there is no finality to it. And the ef-
feet of this vile species of journalism
undermines the moral health of the
community and vitiates it: creates
such tyrannical environmeL:: from

unable to release themselves. This,
like all other evils, however, will never
be exterminated until wholesome ed

A~" has elected the remark
that traditional Jewish music has been
made by memory-it is the oldest jew
ish music. For the most part we have
parted with much of that soul-stirring
melody which enthused our fathers,
and consequently we are cold and ir-
responsive. And in many quarters in
this counry where the Cantor is re-
tanned, operate music has displaced
the old synagogue melody, and great
deal of rich sentiment has thus been
permitted to be altogether lost. True,
we can speak our aspirations as well
as sing them, but the appeal of music
and especially of vocal music-to
the religious sense is a never-failing
eXpedient to arouse love, inspiration
