HITCHCOCK MAY RETIRE.

In Washington there is a revival of the gossip to the effect that Post master General Hitchcock will be the first member of the cabinet to retire. Whether this story has any founda, ton or not cannot be learned. It is known that Mr. Hitchcock is unpopu, lar with most of his cabinet associates although openly they all accord him the most courteous treatment
 Secretary Knox. the premier of the cabinet. is pehaps Htchcock's most powerful enemy Secretary Knox has no use for the postmaster general; he does not believe him to be man of cabinet size, he does not regard his political judgement as sound. and he does not relish seeing che President take Hitchcock's advice on questions Of party policy.
 Whether the President will allow this uudercurreut Co disrupt his cabi- net. or whether he win yield to the pressure and quietly invite NIr Hitch cock to resign. is a question the fu- ture must decide. But it is very cer- tain that che retirement of Hitchcock would please most of the members of the cabinet Whether their hostility grows out of jealousy. because of the Presidents past intimacy with Hitch cock. or for some other cause, is purely a matter Of speculation, but it Is a fact that several of the other members of his cabinet refer to Hitch cock as "the kid. and seem to regard him lightly on account of his compar- atlve youthIulness.-Portlaud Tele- gram.

JEWISH LITERARY
SOCIETY

A most enthusiastic meeting of the
board of directors Of the Jewish Liter
airy Society took place in their rooms
last Thursday night. Some very i'm
portant facts are likely to be report
ed as a result of this meeting and that
it will interest all is a foregone con-
clusion. The editor of the Herald was
taken to task for remarks in these col
umns and it is really a source of much
pride to note the results-whether the
cause be attributed to the Herald or
personal hustling on the part of others.
Mr. S. j. Westheimer made several
remarks under good of the order. A
most important suggestion being a UNI
ion of Jewish literary societies of the
State, and we expect this idea to be
developed later on.
On Sunday afternoon at their hall
Rabbi Wilmer delivered an address on
the Rationale of the First Eight Chap
tiers of the Bible" 1t is spoken of as
being one Of the most interesting dis
courses presented before the society
Rabbi Greenberg Of Dallas, who was
present, also delivered short talk.

stop publication, which to a newspaper
is equivalent to death. 1t is death 1t

which is bound to infest the commun-

sion here:
Greeley was walking leisurely when
a man approached thin saying:
Il have stopped your paper, Mr.
Greedy"
You did? ! am very sorry indeed,
sir, very sorry. Let us go up and see
how things are as we are near the of
fee, anyway"
When they walked into the office
things went as usual at The Tribune,
the same was the case in the printery.
The great editor turned to him COM
panion saying:
did you not say you stopped the
paper?"
I did told them not to send it to
me any longer
"Oh, | see. You discontinued to take
it, | presume on account of todays ed
itorial. | assure you the paper will APP
pear tomorrow and many days after
that even though you do not take it."
And The Tribune was such force
in the country because of this spirit
The Jewish paper which wants to be

tive community, must partake of this
spirit. 1t must live up to it's ideals,

than live in ignominy Do you want

THE JEWISH PREss-lTs MISSION
By Oscar Leonard.

Ii we were to ask the readers of any
Jewish paper what they conceive to
be the mission of the paper they are
reading, we might get many interest
ing and some startling answers Some
would unhesitatingly answer that a
Jewish paper must concern itself pri-
marily with the social side of the life
of the Jewish community The paper,
they would say, must tell from week
to week that Mrs. Blank is being visit
ed by her niece, Miss Wouldwed." 9th
ers would intimate that the Jewish pa
per should take note of the communal
doings of the city where it is issued
To them the function Of the Jewish pa
per is to praise communal institutions
and their leaders. Yes, praise them, to
be sure But they must deserve it.
Quite few readers of Jewish paper
expect to see only praise in the issue
in hand, whether it is deserved or not
Others again will inform us that the
mission of the Jewish paper is to tell
about the good things in the commun-
ity. They would like to have the edi-
tor be ever ready to see and speak OF
the good, but they would also like him
to be short sighted to the bad so that
he may not criticise.
These are few of the opinions that
people have as to the mission of the
Jewish paper. There are many more,
took many to be mentioned here. There
is hardly a Jew or Jewess without an
opinion as to what Jewish paper
should be. 1t would be interesting to
make and watch an experiment in Civ
ing a free hand to every critic of the
Jewish press to take the place of the
editor for one issue. Whether the pa
per could survive the issue is not GER
tain. Still many members Of the com
munity think themselves capable OF
debating to the editor the policy of
his paper, just because they pay
their subscription, or are going to do
SO when the year is up. They forget
that publishers and editors have GER
tain views and ideas and that they ven
ture their capital, talents and time to
carry out those ideas. They forget
that the thing they have right to ex-
pect from an editor or publisher is
earnestness, honesty and fairness.
No self-respecting publisher or ed
itor can allow a subscriber or an adj
vertiser, or any member of the com
munity, no matter how influential that
member may be, to dictate the policy
of the paper. But few persons, other

show you the door if you tried to run
their business for them, will attempt
to run your paper and will actually
take offense if you do not allow it.
This is, unfortunately for the Jewish
press, almost general
Who is responsible for it? Ignorance
in the first place. People do not realize
that a paper has a mission, a policy
and that certain persons are engaged
in carrying out that policy. They
seem to feel that the Jewish paper
must be sycophantic, that it must al
ways speak Well of those higher
up The man with the bank account
expects the newspaper to be one of the
geese in the flock, ready to follow
where he leads. Few persons under
stand that the Jewish paper is not in
tended as the press agent, the horn
tooter for certain institutions Just
because man publishes a paper or
edits one he does not necessarily have
to forget his self-respect and human
dignity. He does not have to bow be-
fore every one who is or considers him
self some che in the community.
If certain things happen in a com
munity that ought not TO happen the
",
to denounce those wrongs. If the Jew
ish paper is to stand in fear and awe
of those who have the upper hand in
communal matters or who have the
power of writing big checks, it is best
that it disappear. The Jewish paper
must be leader in the community
Its work is in many respects more i'm
portant and mere influential than that
Of hn 1Jo;t kn Foo
must be just. 1t must stand for the
right at all times, no matter who the
opposing force may be.
Every publisher and every editor
who understands the mission of the
press will act in accordance with this
principle. The publisher who issues
paper for what is in it" will be a sy-
cophant. His sheet will always praise
and PROSTATE itself. 1t will suppress
news that may displease the powers
that be. 1t viii curry for favor in any
and all ways. Not so the paper with
a mission Not SO the paper which UNI
derstands its responsibilities and
meets its obligations. The moment
such a paper can not live because it is
too honest and truthful, it prefers to
die in honor than live in disgrace. 1t
is not always better to be live dog
than dead lion. The sooner all the
readers of the Jewish paper under
stand this the better for them and for
the paper. A community can have no
better moral force in it's midst than
an honest, conscientious, earnest, reli-
able, fair paper Such a paper is
bound to react in manner calculated to
be of general benefit to it's readers
who form the community.
All those desiring to see their com
munity grow morally and Intellectually
must rally to the side of the paper
which means to help in such efforts.
In doing so they show where they
stand. They proclaim openly and pub
licly that they have the manly courage
of fighting for the right. But whether

MEANINe OF MUSIC.
What Il Can and What u Cannot Say
10 You.

What II Can and What II Cannot Say
10 You.
Music is called the universal Ian
guage, and yet when you are strug-
Cling to understand what a COM
poser is trying to say always remem-
Der that be is speaking a primitive
language that frames vaguely SEN
timent OF a mood or a tangled fab
ric of sentiments and moods.
'"The best definition / ever heard
of music" says Rupert Hughes in
the Delineator, els that of Tame,
Music is a cry and, to my thinking
at least, the best music is that in
which to the largest degree each
note represents an outcry. But then
cry may mean so much or so lit
tie!
"The spirit of brooding music
may be found in the story of Robert
Schumann and his cherished friend,
Frau Voigt. One summer evening
he took her out in a rowboat, ship
ped the oars and sat for an hour in
complete silence. When they land
ed again Schumann pressed her
hand in farewell and said:
"'We have understood each 9th
er perfectly
'"There is the message of contem-
plative music in a nutshell. We
have understood without words, and
with words we could not explain.
"Music cannot even hint at a glo-
rious contour or a ripple of music
which sculpture can make immortal,
nor suggest the color of a land
scape or a woman's eyes, which
painting can give to posterity, nor
spin out skeins of thoughts well
chosen and deftly arranged as
poetry and prose are wont to do. 1t
cannot with a gesture grip your
heart or with a grimsce make you
laugh as drama can. 1t cannot mar
rate a romance nor indulge in the
WITNESSES of an essay, the patriotic
fire AN grafton, the fact mosaics
of history, the massive fights of
architecture.
"Music is eternally debarred from
even attempting any of these fields.
And yet one finds compensation in
being allowed to nestle little closer
to the heart of things in themselves
and emotions as emotions than any
other of the muses. that make the

PRESCRIPTIONS.
Reasons Why They Are Written IN
Latin By Physicians.

Hoo9oue why tHey Aro WFt&~~" y"
Latin BY Physicians
81 don't see" said the man who
was leaning against the drug store
counter, "why a doctor can't write
his prescription in English instead
of Latin"
The druggist said: "You think, l
suppose, that the doctor writes his
prescriptions in Latin so it can't be
read so easily-so the layman can't
steal his trade and learn what he IL
giving him. But that's wrong. In
the first place, Latin is a more exact
and concise language than English
and, being a dead language, does not
change, as all living languages do.
''Then, again, since a very large
part of all the drugs in use are
botanical, they have in the pharma-
copoeia the same names that they
have in botany-the scientific
names. TwO-thirds of such drugs
haven't any English names and so
couldn't be written in English.
'''But suppose a doctor did write
a prescription in English for an I'M
educated patient. The patient reads
it, thinks he remembers it, and so
tries to get it filled from memory
the second time. Suppose, for in
stance, it calls for iOdide of pOtas-
stun and he gets it confused with
cyanide of potassium. He could
safely take ten grains of the first,
but one grain of the second would
kill him as dead as a mackerel.
That's an exaggerated case, but it
will serve as an illustration. Don't
you see how the Latin is a prOtcc-
ton and a safeguard to the patient?
Prescriptions in Latin he can't read
and consequently doesn't try to re-
member.
"Now for a final reason. Latin
is language that is used by scien-
tifc men the world over, and no
other Ian uage is. You can get
Latin prescriptions filed in any
country on the face of the earth
where there is a drug store. We
had a prescription come in here the
other day which We had put up orig
inally and which had since been
stamped by druggists in London,
Paris, Berlin, Constantinople, Cairo
and Calcutta. What good would an
English prescription be in st. Pc
