declared, is on a par with that of the
early colonist of the revolutionary

NEW TEXAS HEBREW INSTITUTE.

Fort Worth, TeXas.-Only six months
ago when the necessity of a Hebrew
Institute in Fort Worth was first pro-
iected, there was slight sentiment of
uncertainty in respect to this matter
the sum of which was that the Fort
Worth community is not yet ready for
it, But this project was not merely
hear-say or by-talk. The leaders of the
Hebrew school took the matter to
heart, being we'll aware of the fact that
if Texas is to be represented by model
Jews, they must Immediately begin
moulding the growing generation. In
order to attain such results it is evil
dent that there must be center from
whence shall radiate into the heart of
every Jewish child the spirit of loyalty
to the religion which has had repre-
sentatives in kings palaces and also
martyrs at the stake.
The directors of the Hebrew school
have stressed the fact that further de-
lay means losing the growing genera
ton, so to this end in view they have
purchased the lot adjoining the syna-
gogue AhaVath Sholom.
The plans are already in the hands
of the architecture and it is hoped that
in the near future every Jewish child
it Fort Worth will have the oppor-
tunity of raising his head in pride on
seeing an institution that will en-
.phasize the fact that to be a Jew is
an inestimable honor. For the lot
which is 65X100, $3.50 has been paid
for in cash. A $4,000 structure is
calculated

GRAND LODGE.

must continue to be the rallying
ground for the Jews regardless of
political or religious opinions" declar-
ed Adolph Kraus of Chicago, president
of the Independent Order of Bal Birth
in his message to the Constitution
Grand Lodge Convention which began
here today
A tremendous dynamic force, Mr.
Kraus said, had been at work in the
camp of Israel Passions have been
aroused, schisms have been created,
and where peace and harmony are so
essential strife and discord reign We
have the Zionist and anti-Zionist, the
orthodox and reformed with their re-
spective schisms constantly widening;
their antipathies steadily growing. In
my judgment, it is the province of the
Order to continue in the path which it
has pursued from it's inception. 1t
must not favor or discountenance
ovements within our ranks on which
Jewish opinions are pronounced and
varied"
Mr.. Kraus message to the convention
contained an account of work that he
had been doing during the last FIVE
years in aid of Jews at home and
abroad, of responses to appeals in be-
half of the suffering and of the condi-
ton of the order in various parts of
the world, besides discussing many
questions of Importance to the organ
ization.
The total membership now is 1928,
a gain of % per cent in the five years
since the last convention, while the
amount paid to widows and orphans
during that period amounted to $-243,,
070 and to charity $1,145,11S. A bril-
liant future was predicted for the or

The president said the problem of
what to do with newly arrived i'm
migrants was one of increasingly ser
ious Importance. Something should be
done to distribute the immigrants in
the badly congested districts in the sea-
port Cities before they become per-
manently settled. Strong ground was
taken in opposition to the white slave
traffic and combating it he declared to
be one of the most important of the
organizations undertakings. The mes
sage made plea for high standard Of
membership whose sole test should be
character.
Recommendation was made for leg
islation providing for the appropria-

DANNENBAUM PROTESTS.

en- from the American Isrealite.
Editor Israelite:
Sir-For some weeks the Saturday
Evening Post" has been publishing a
series of articles by Montague Glass
of semi-humorous nature, but mani
testify purporting to portray certain
phases of Jewish character. One issue
dealt with fraudulent bankruptcies
and, while Jews were not mentioned
as such, the names given to the fiicti-
tlouS personages were so prominently
Jewish that no conclusion could be
reached except that the article identi-
fled Jews with fraudulent bankrupt
cles and fraudulent bankruptcies with
Jews. In another recent issue, in an
article dealing with false weights, a
Russian Jew is mentioned as having
been guilty of that practice. On an
other page OF the same issue was pub
lished purported advertisement of a
Jewess, who advertised for a husband,
stating that she was ready to change
her faith If necessary to procure one
Your correspondent, feeling that the
publication of these matters manifest
ed studied purpose to reflect upon
the Jewish people, wrote a respectful
letter of protest to the editors of the
Saturday Evening Post" and in reply
received the enclosures In my opin-
ion the reply is far from satisfactory,
and the time has come for the Jews OF
this country to let the editors Of that
publication know that they resent the
matter. HENRY DANNENBUAM.
Jews Neither Better Nor Worse Than
Their Fellow Americans of Other
Faiths.
Editor Israelite
Sir-lt seems to me that the criti-
cism made by the Israelite, Mr.. Henry
j. Dannenbaum and others, is an at
tempt to place the Jew upon a higher
plane than he really belongs. After
all we are nothing more nor less than
human beings, with the faults and
frailtieS of the ordinary human. Some
of us are honest, some dishonest;
some good citizens, some undeSirableS.
AS a race we know ourselves to be a
most desirable class of citizens, but
the fact nevertheless remains that
there are such people among us as
are so humorously described by Mr..
Montague Glass. Why attempt to hide
it? Rome had her Brutus but not all
Romans were murderers England had
her Georges, but not all EngliShmen
were tyrannical lunatics; the Christ
ianS have their bad men, the Moham-
medans have theirs and, indeed, the fol-
lowers of Confucius are not all clean.
But 1T would be but the rawlings of an
insane person to say that all the peo-
pie OF all the races and religions are
morally had. OF course there are
some narrow-minded people who will
think that Mr., Glass description fits
all Jews; on the other hand, there may
be some who think that the grand
father of Daniel Deronda and SCOTS

The Baby Turtle

Just as soon as a baby turtle emerges
from the egg off he scuttles down to
the sea. He has no one TO teach him,
. no one to guide him. In his curious
little brain there is implanted a streak
of caution based upon the fact that
until a certain period in his life his
armor is soft and no defense against
hungry fish, and he at once seeks shell
ter in the tropical profusion of the
gulf weed, which holds within its
branching fronds an astonishing abund-
ance of marine life. Here the young
turtle feeds unmolested while his ar
NOR undergoes the hardening process.
Whatever the young sea turtle eats
and wherever he eats IL, facts not gem
orally ascertained one thing is certain
lit agrees with him immensely. He
leads a pleasant sort Of life, basking in
the tropical sun and cruising leisurely
in the cool depths.
Once he has attained the weight OF
25 pounds, which usually occurs within
the first year, the turtle is free from
all danger. After that no fish or NAM
NAL, however ravenous. however well
armed with teeth, interferes with the
turtle

men as Prof. Fisher of Yale University
and Sir James Criohton Browne,

the great question of the nourishing
and strengthening qualities Of different
foods, Il Is certain that their advice Is
absolutely safe TO follow.
Professor Fisher found In his ex-
periments for testing the strength and

eaters were exhausted long before the
men who we're fed on such food as
