- the Jews, who weep in their
waiing place. 1t is strange and
interesting to compare the two grfefs.
Nothing in the Holy Land touched me
so as the simple faith, the deep reverence.
the heartfelt love and sorrow of the Rus
sian pilgrims. Totally free from self
consciousness. like children. they show
all the feelings of their hearts. In all
the holy places they kiss the ground.
Wherever they think the Savior suffered
was sad they weep today, men and
women alike. The Jews are prouder. are
more self-conscious: yet every time |
visited their Wailing place l felt that their
grief, too, in its different, less touching
way, was often genuine.
The wailing place is a rather narrow
paved alley between a whitewash wall
and a gigantic ancient wall formed of
huge blocks of uncemented stone, worn
away, so il is said, by kissing lips.
Weeds sprout in places in the numerous
crevices and cracks. In the alley are
wooden benches. The Jews, both men
and women, go there not only on Fri
days. but on all the days of the week.
with their faces toward il and al
most touching ii, they read their
Hebrew books of prayer. murmur the
words aloud, weep, bow sometimes al
most to the earth. and often press their
lips fervently against the blocks of stone.
The women wear shawls and keep by
themselves at the ends of the alley. The
men cluster i'm the middle. Behind these
mourners a blind Moslem, conducted by a
Jew, often goes to and fro demanding
aims from the onlookers. The waling
place is in the Tyropeon valley. and the
great wall is at the west side of the tenn
pie area. Whereas the Russian PILGRIMS
never even glance at those who watch
their tears-such, at least. is my eNv~ri-
ence of them-the Jews are often obvi-
ously aware of the interest their mourn
ing creates. / have seen them peep fur
lively round to take observations and
return to their lamentations with what
seemed a greater Zest when they knew
the eyes of strangers were upon them.
Nevertheless, many of them really weep,
pray with earnestness and rock them
selves to and fro as if genuinely torment
ed. But the Jew is by nature acutely
aware of the things and people about
him. The Russian peasant is not.-Cen-

but so numerous that no man
can possibly meet them all. So the de-
mand comes for selection, and that Is
a harder task than the work itself; for
to make one opportunity more pressing
than another when both are right and
important is a trying necessity. 1t is
doubtless a sign of advancing civillza-
ton and of liberal outpouring of the
spirit of brotherhood that we see so
many opportunities for doing good and
hear so many calls to serve; but it IS,
nevertheless. IL temptation either to load
ones self down with many duties so that
no one Of them is we'll done, or to grow
utterly weary and disheartened and long
for ''lull in life"-perhaps to go away
into solitude and do absolutely nothing.
Hence comes the call at once to steadi-
ness, and patience, and calmness. We
must remember that this life is not, and
can never be. perfect, but is crowded
full of tasks which we must do with
all our might. Our ideals of comfort
and peace in the outward existence, at
least, can never be met here. We are
in a school for training; the next stage
of our experience will be the era of
calm. and realization, and JOY. So our
