tell of noble work done in the Sunday

If only they look upon the occasion
not as mere show, but as time for
serious impression, then they will find
that their usefulness in life has just
begun They ought to appreciate the
instruction they have received, at
least so much that they should be
staunch supporters of their congrega-
ton. The lessons they learned from
their teachers and rabbi will undoubt-
eddy not be without influence on their
lives, and make them good Jews and
Jewesses.
Then here's hoping for their success,

them and their dear ones.

The Jewish herald. (Houston, Tex.) 1908-1914, 1909-05-20

A recent effort to unite the Jewish
of failure is not important 1t is
enough to know that union is proper,
desirable and necessary When the
ruffled feathers are composed another
effort should be made. In the mean
time remember that there is lot of
good in all of us and little bad in
any Of us.
The Christians of Russia who COM
placently murdered Jewish men and
ravished Jewish women are justified
by the Mohammedans of Asia Minor,
who complacently murdered Christian
men and ravished Christian women.
The Jew is the only one of the three
who needs no justification. It's an ill
wind that blows nobody good, and let
us hope that the latest incident, rep
rehensible though it be, will open the
eyes of the benighted Russian to the
beauty of tolerance
The reader of the Jewish press is
struck by the activity and prominence
of the Zionist movement. 1t is today
the live wire of Jewish thought.
Whether it is a dream or the highest
craftsmanship, whether it be religious
or racial, whether you agree or dis
agree with it's program, the fact of the
movement is important 1t has proved
the existence of a reserve force in Jew
ry, the possibilities of which are great
With this in mind, partisan and op-
ponent should debate the question
with mutual respect for opinion
We are wont to hear of Jewish ex-
clusiveness, as regards his relations
with his neighbors. Where this exists
it is bad. But far worse is that ex-
clusiveness which so often mars the
Jews relations with his fellow Jew
This last barrier is oftenest of the
aimsiest material Nativity, wealth,
orthodoxy, are a few of the lines of
cleavage AS matter of fact, no
branch of Jewry has monopoly of the
eXcellencies. Each can learn and gath
