NOTABLE CONVENTION.

AS this goes to press, there is being
held one of the greatest conferences
in the history of American Reform
Judaism. The Twenty Second Coun-
ell of the Union of American Hebrew
Congregations is convened at the Ho-
tel Astor, New York, since January
16, 1911. The first social function in
its honor took place on that date at
the New Theatre.
Those who have followed and stud
led the situation closely acknowledge
that the intense activity and interest
manifested in the present conference
is due to the re-actionary attitude of
DIR. Magnes and his followers. Re-
form received a shock last spring and
ing too much for granted. The wide
spread interest will be productive of
much good as many are lending them
selves to the practical solution of the
intricate problems that is sure to con-
front the convention.

WHAT RABBI COHEN
THINKS.

To the Editor of the Jewish
Herald:
So much criticism has been
made of the article published
in your last issue that l am
handing you herewith a letter
received by me, unsolicited,
from DR.. Henry Cohen of Gal
weston, Texas, which is self-ex-
planatory. 1t will do more to
remove the erroneous impress
sion created than a like com
munication from any other liv-
ing Texas Jew, because DR..
Cohen has given much thought
and study to the subject.
G. j. Kapner.
Galveston, Tex, Jan. II, 1911.
Mr.. G.. j. kapner,
Attorney -at-Law,
Houston, Texas.
My Dear Sir
have read your contribution
to the current number of the
"Jewish Herald" and agree
with what you say. The para
the Jews have taken in thei
White Slave Traffic has been
exaggerated and | believe that
this fact has been conclusiveIy
established. In any event, it is
not we'll to give prominence to
it in public addresses. We Jews
have been the focus of all eyes
and If one Of our own states
something derosatory to US, it
will be seized upon everlasting-
Iy. The report Of Mr.. kramer's
lecture in the Houston papers
proves my contention.

Yours faithfully

lean Israelite.
Congregation Beth Israel on Friday
evening last was stirred UP to religi-
GUS fervor by the sermon then deliv-
cred by its Rabbi, DR.. Henry Barn
stein Every one listened with rapt
attention when the reverend speaker
in most convincing terms dwelt upon
the undue ACKNOWLEDGMENT of so-called
orators who pronounce the doctrine
that there is more Judaism in the
Lodge and Auxiliary organizations
than in the Temple. The speaker con-
tended that the Temple was older,
greater and holier than Lodge, Club,
Benevolent or Literary Society, and
that man can not be considered
Jew unless he is first and foremost a
member of Jewish Congregation
In view of the tendency of late of hav-
ing unqualified laymen speak in the
Temple on theological subjects and
holding up Jews inadvertently to the
scorn of the world, the lecture was
timely and instructive as well.

RESULT OF ovER-CoNFiDENcE.
In sad contrast to the above happy
event was the eviction on the same
day, November 81, of Isaac Rogel, wife
and four children from their living
rooms. Two years ago Rogel was
worth $65,O0O, out of which he had
been swindled by men. whom he had
trusted while real estate dealer. A
co-religionist out of pity, offered the
unfortunate family one of his unoccu-
pied houses, rent free, till Rogel got

children collapsed on the sidewalk
from starvation and was removed to
the hospital.
Every young tyo who has studied
little science and philosophy believes
himself at liberty to give expression
to his opinion on the most abstruse
theological and religious questions.
These young men and women render
their ipse dixit, ex cathedra, judg-
ments as though they had given their
whole life to the study and solution
of these questions, when, perhaps,
they have not studied the a, b, of
religion or cut the first pages of the
primer of theology. Men who have
not devoted their life to the study of
theological questions ought to be very
careful as to how they handy their
judgments about on subject OF this
kind. A man may be good physician
and know little about the intricate
problems of religion. A man may be
a good electrician and still be poor
theologian A minister would not dare
diagnose case of diphtheria or pneu-
monia; as little should physician at
tempt to render judgments in the mat
ter of religion. These things are out
of his sphere. The same holds good Of
the lawyer and the other professions,
as well as to the young high school
girls and boys. They must not think
that they know it all. They have still
much to learn, and as religion has not

WILLIAM BELL

William Bell died at his no me in
this city last Sunday, February 5, at
the age of So years, 10 months and
8 days.
William Bell was born in Maine
April 2, 1847. He came west in 1872
and had resided in this vicinity ever

Bell of Superior, survive him.
Mr.. and Mrs. Bell moved to this
city from their farm in Kinnickinnic
on the first of last December. Mr..
Bell was enjoying good health until
a little over week ago, when he
suddenly contracted pneumonia,
from which he died. Of William
Bells life it can be most truthfully
said that he was ever honest, con-
scientious, kind and generous; al
ways a good neighbor, true friend
and good citizen.
The funeral services were held
from the home yesterday afternoon
at 1880 o'clock, Rev. c. B. Blakeslee
of the Episcopal church at Hudson,
officiating. Among those from out

High Schools Meet

The annual meeting of the Inter
Scholastic association of the high
schools of Pierce and St. Croix
counties was held in Hudson last
Saturday. The meeting arranged
a base ball schedule for the coming
spring. Also, it took up the mat
ter of championship honors for the
past year. No honors were award
ed in base ball, because it did not
appear that any one school had
clear claim to such honors. The
matter was left to the executive
committee for settlement. The
same committee will award honors
in basket ball when the season
closes. The championship honors
in foot ball were awarded to River
Falls high, it being the only school
with clear claim TO the title. The
league oratorical and declamatory
contest, was set to be held at Hud-
son on March "a. This date is
much earlier than usual, but the
schools desire to have that work
done before the spring vacation,
which this year in most of the
schools begins on March 81.

The Home Talent Play

The ticket sale for the home tai
ent performance OF THE Brookdale
Farm" at the Opera Hall last Fri
day evening amounted to about 500,
which, after paying expenses leaves
the Baseball association a pretty
fair margin toward the coming sea-
sons campaign.
"The Brookdale Farm" was we'll
staged and was given appreciative
attention. Mr.. and Mrs. Newly
exhibited professional ability in
their work of directing and also in
their acting. Percy Symes proved
to be the star among the amateurs,
in his portrayal of the character of
"Ephraim Green" Robert Rey-
holds filed the bill as Squire
Brooks" very acceptably. Rob
made his big hit at the end of the
second act, when, after being foul
ly murdered and, to all intents and
purposes stone dead, he refused to
remain a corpse until the curtain
reached the floor. But Bob didn't
try to auction off "Brookdale" so
the audience readily forgave him
for his premature resurrection.
Miss Symes and Miss Bailey gave
their lines in very charming man
ner and deserve much credit. Burt
Gender, as dick Willard" the
tramp, would surely have been ad-
mitted as an honorary member at
the hoboes' convention at Milwau-
kee last week. Raymond Thayer,
held the heavy end of the plot down
in truly bloodcurdling style. When
Doc Fortune, as one of the band of
heavily armed miners, made a
threatening move to shoot poor
"Ephraim' with the butt of his re-
volver, there were many in the audi
ence who wondered how he could
do it. Harry Reynolds knew his
duty as sheriff and made it plain
to all. His songs between acts
received hearty applause. The or
chestra, consisting of C. A. Smith,
Richard Smith, c. E. White, Fred
Pratt and Gus Wingquist, rendered
excellent music during the inter-
missions, and also at the dance
which was given at the close of the
performance.

Local High School

The league contest, declamatory
and oratorical, will be held in Hud-
son on March "a This early date
necessitates the holding of the To-
cal contests much earlier than usu-
al, and the high school is now at
work preparing for the contests.
The local oratorical contest will be
held on Feb. "a, and the declama-
tory on March IT, Keep those
dates in mind. Fuller particulars
as to the contests will appear later.
According to a court decision at
Manitowoc, school boards in Wis
consin cannot institute actions
against teachers for alleged breach
of contract without the authority of
a vote of the electors of the district.
This verdict was handed down in
the case of school District No. 2,
against Miss Gertrude Paine, who
left to accept position with another
local school.

DOW|E'S DREAM
COME TRUE

To most of the American people
today John Alexander Dowie is but
memory. The world at large was
forced for time at least to acknowl-
edge his transcendent commercial
genius. The establishment of Zion
City, the immigration to it of fol-
lowers from all over the civilized
world, the founding of the lace indus
tries and other enterprises of magni-
tude, in that colony, the blending of
civil and religious authority in a way
which recalled the patriarchal days of
old-all stamped Elijah the Second,
as Dowie called himself. as a man
born once in century.
Dowie possessed the rare power of
converting his visions into realities.
In that industrial Utopia which he
established, there stands great
monument to his memory. For in
establishing the Zion Lace Industries
Dowie gave to this country new
industry.
AS late as 1900 this beautiful prod
uct was considered monopoly of the
historic lace centers of Europe.
Today the plant is one of the largest
and most interesting textile industries
in America.
A wonderful development has taken
place in this factory during the past
three years. It has been thoroughly
reorganized. Out of chaos has been
made the most efficient plant of its
kind.
The plant covers nearly five acres.
1t is $50 feet long and 284 feet wide,
two and three stories high; now en-
ploys about 700 people, and during
the past three years has operated all
machines Is hours daily, except Satur-
day, when the factory is closed at /
p. m for weekly half holiday.
The rapid growth of the Zion Lace
Industries has not equaled the re-
markable increase of the demand. The
product is constantly oversold.
The Zion Lace Industries is today
the life of the city of 5000 inhabitants.
Many of its most intelligent wage
earners are toiling with the satisfac-
ton of knowing they still have a
chance to get back in that way, at
least comfortable existence in re-
turn for the fortunes they have lost.
So even if the founders work may
be said to have been unfinished, even
though he was crushed out of the
minds of the people, great reality
has resulted from his dreams.

BASKET BALL
Local Normal Quint Suffers
Fret Defeat of the
Season

The La Crosse Normal quint
slipped one over" on the local
basket shooters in a one-sided game
at La Crosse Friday evening, treat
ing the River Falls delegation to
its first defeat of the season.
The floor of the La Crosse Nor
NAL schools gymnasium was waxed
just before the game-to put it in
shape, SO the management announ-
ced, for a social hop which was to
follow, The La Crosse players
had suction shoes and were there
fore prepared, but the River Falls
boys, with tennis shoes, slid around
as though on ice, and that, so the
story goes, explains their defeat.
Well, La Crosse comes here a week
from tomorrow, and then the local
pedagogues will have a chance to
even things up.
La Crosse had things their own
way almost from the start, and the
first half ended with a score 10 to 7
in their favor. The score for the
second half was 20 to 6 in favor of
La Crosse and the final score SO to
Is.
Junkman, Mccain, Reagan,
Thurston and Moser represented
River Falls, and Sloggy, Dahl,
Griffin, Huber, Schmitz and Olson,

Take man as bad as man can
be with unlimited wealth and
heart filled with hatred-take a girl
bred in the woods by devout guard
ians with a character as beautiful
as her face-make the girl penni-
less and force her into the company
of the man-and you have some of
the startling situations that go to
make up the play st. Elmo"
When these two fall in love there
comes straightway the burning pro-
blem-will he drag her down or will
she bring him back to real man
hood? Stir this problem violently,
mix in a duel, train wreck, schem-
ing women and honorable men and
some idea of development of the
plot can be gained. The climax is
a sermon that sends the spectator
away uplifted. The author has
been wonderfully successful in fol-
lowing the lines of Augusta J.
Evans brilliant novel of the same
name. 1t is play that makes an
appeal to almost every human emo
ton and is sensational without be-
ing unpleasant and draws the good
out of the most daring situation.
To miss this play at the Opera Hall
tomorrow (Friday) evening is to
miss one of the most interesting of
the seasons offerings.
