The Spiritual and Material

- III III 3 Ohl AAAPPuA oSA 'ASN
at Temple Beth Israel Monday
Henry j. Dannenbaum, president
of the congregation, delivered an
address on "Atonement."
He spoke as follows:
1t is the province of our rabbi
to explain and to enforce the
spiritual duties which we owe as
Jews. With that office / do not
intend to NEEDLE. But as your
temporal leader 1 am concerned
with the material side of congre-
gational life, and on this great
day for self-study it is timely to
discuss our financial problems
and duties. We are not only Jews
but congregants of Beth Israel,
and therefore owe the further
duty of supporting it's communal
system. What we are doing in
that regard and what is yet to be
done are proper subjects for this
days thoughts.
There is a popular idea that
the spiritual and the material do
not mix well, that they are stran-
gers and even enemies Of each
other. A moment will show that
this is mistake, that they are in
fact friends; that the material
encourages and supports the
spiritual. Beneath every great
moral achievement is the bread
and butter-the living-of the
man who does it. The best re-
suits of the painters brush or
sculptor's chisel are reflected in
the bid of the art collector. The
kings and queens of music and of
song levy tribute upon the purses
of their willing subjects and the
publishers of the Bible and
of Shakespeare must reckon
upon printers wages and the
price of paper. The gran
deur of the mountains and
old oceans solemn roar are for
those able to take the trip, and
they who would worship in
stately edifice should help to bear
the expense.
No reasonable person will ex-
pect to live in a mansion on what
it has cost him to keep up cot
tage. Just so far as this temple
excels our old synagogue in COM
fort and in beauty, just so much
The Jewish herald. (Houston, Tex.) 1908-1914, 1908-10-08

more does it deserve our gener-
Gus support. 1t is true that one
can be religious anywhere, that
Jacob sleeping on the rocks could
find the Lord also in that place,
but since climate and the seasons
require indoor worship, our al
tars must be built in quarters
both comfortable and attractive.
In all the ages men have built
temples where they might meet
and pay homage to the Creator,
and history attests that the fin
est temples and the highest Gull
ture have flourished side by side.
Solomon's proverbs and his tenn
pie were the products of the
same reign. Grecian intellect
reached its summit within the
walls OF the Parthenon, and the
university and the cathedral are
fellow workers in the civiliza-
ton of our time. The reason for
this is to be found, not in the de-
sire to show respect and make
sacrifice to the Supreme Power
of the universe. The shepherd
of Judea brought to the altar an
offering from his flock, and in
the same spirit we give of our
substance that our faith may live
and have a home suitable to the
day and place.

EFFECT OF NEW SYNA-
GOGUE.

This building was born of the
need for larger quarters; it arose
from the fact that the old syna-
gogue on Franklin avenue did
not fifty represent, in the sight
of God or man, the oldest Jewish
community in Houston. 1t may
have cost more, it may be more
elaborate than some think nee
essary, but such as it is it was
the choice of the great majority
of our members, and it behooves
us all to bring to it's support the
same zeal and the same sacrifice
as did our fathers to the work
Of their hands. Forty years ago
mere handful of men bravely
and faithfully built and main
tanned what in those days was a
palatial synagogue. Shall not we
much stronger in numbers and
in wealth, meet the conditions of
our time with the same degree
of success? Let the fact enter
our minds and hearts that we

SPLENDID LOCATION
For Canning Factory Industry,
Citizens Interested Should
Get Together.

Our attention has been called to
the fact that there will be a large
acreage Of peaches to be handled
here next season, and the necessity
of a canning factory to dispose of
the surplus that can not be sold on
the market at the t tne of harvest.
We understand thai number of
our citizens are ready to take
hand in the enterprie, aud anxious
that something be dDne at once.
There is no doubtthat a canning
factory is needed, and one that
could handle at least ten thousand
cans per day. Their is no doubt
that the enterprise would pay from
the start, and thpse interested
should get together at once so as to
have things in shape for the next
fruit crop.
