Poor old dredge! They had just
got to working after being laid up for
several weeks on account of the sink

And now the accident has visited
them again, viz: A snag making a

Vending on the Jews.

" Nb1WkAAA6 VA eAAG ~ -
We republish from the Hampshire
Review, the scholarly tribute to the
Jewish race. of q gifted fellow towns
man:
An estimate Of the Jews by the
famous orator and publicist, George r.
Vending, was recently published in
the Staunron Dispatch News, and the
truth of what this scholar and thinker
said is SO compelling that paraphrase
of his opinion is here attempted
There is not drop Of Jewish blood
in my veins NJ am not connected with
the Jews by marriage or any
near or distant kinsman I owe
no Jew dollar and no Jew owes me.
Among all my personal or intimate
friends. cannot name one single Jew.
speak, therefore, from the vantage
ground Of absolute independence and
impartial lily. z
Such is theS viewpoint from which
Mr.. Vending ponders upon 'ssplen-
did race, splendid in patience, in
brotherly love, in endurance, in sagac-s
ity and temperance, in intellectual, re-
sources; splendid in their inflexible
adherence to their Mosaic ideals. .
''Do you want an aristocracy of
blood and birth ~ inquiries Mr.. Wend-
ling. The Jews, then are the purest
blooded people, and have the best es
tablished descent in the world. = Neither
Mirabeau in the French Assembly, nor
Patrick Henry, in the House of Bur-
gesses, nor Sam Johnson in the Colon
ial days, ever said more. thrilling
thing than Disraeli's reply in the Eng
lish Commons to 0'Connell's charge
that he was Jew
Yes. am Jew And when the
ancestors of the right honorable gentle
men we're brutal sayages in an un-
known island, mine were priests in the
temple r. Who could answer such
magnificent statement as that? Who,
in the light pf human history. are ar
istocrats, II not the Jews?
DO you seek an aristocracy of
talent?'' asks Mr.. Vending. The
great church historian, Neander, Ma
poleon,s Marshals, Soult and Mag
sena; Gambetta, the brillinat cynic
Heinethese were Jews. The worlds
list of great soldiers, authors, musi-
clans, painters, poets, philosophers and
financiers contains more Hebrew
names than could recite in many
hours. -
If an aristocracy Of wealth is sought,
lett be remembered that the COM
bined financial powers of the Jews in
Europe and America can tepreyent the
floating of any national loan which
may be put upon the markets of the
world. p
It is spurious, false Christianity
that hates Jews. Incarnation found
expression in the flesh and blood Of a
Jew, and therefore, ina sense, we
worship Jew. We get our ten Com
mandmentsthe very foundation of
our civilization through the Jews. We
sing Jewish psalms, we are uplifted By
the passions and poetry of Jewish
prophets, and we rely on Jewish hi
ographies for the only history we have
of Christ. We get our Pauline the
oiogy from Jew, and we catch our
earliest glimpse Of the next world
through the sublime appeal yptic vision
Of Jew. Then, forsooth, We Chri-
tians turn about and sheer at Jews.

EVENING CHAT
BY RUTH CAMERON

A most charming gifI for an exile
came to my attention the other day.
About year ago 1 suggested to you
a friendship calendar made up of daily
quotations written or typeWritten on
little slips, for Christmas gift
This is much along the same line.
The difference is that this friendship
calendar is to be gotten up by many
friends instead of one anG is to be
made up, not wholly of quotations, but
also of little original greetings, jokes,
nonsense rhymes, pictures and
sketches.
This calendar which came to my at
tention was being gotten up by a jolly
young crowd in a country town for one
of their number who hi d been sent
away to another climate to fight the
white plague.
The pad used was about five by eight
inches The date was written at the
top. Then the leaves were distributed
among the girls friends-one or two
| to her more casual friends, and three
or four to those who had been nearest
to her.
Some of the young people pasted
snapshots of themselves, the crowd, or
familiar spots on the leaves. Others.
who were clever at jingles. wrote nom
sense rhymes. The artistic ones did
little pencil or water color sketches.
Some simply contributed CHEEKY quota
tions or wrote letters telling the girl
how much they loved her and missed
her.
The plucky little exile received the
calendar Christmas. I don't know her
at all personally, but I like to think
about her and think what factor in
the fight for courage that friendship
calendar must be. hks to think how
she will try to decide whether to take
this daily bit of excitement at break
fast. at twilight, or just before she goes
IL ~ a.
all this friendliness viii sometime es
mean to her when she is in the home
sick or the what 's-the-use-anywa
mood.
If you know anyone for whom you
think you would like to get up a sim
liar calendar, may make one or two
suggestions?
! In the first place. don't wait until
Just a month before Christmas, or even
two or three months before. Such an
undertaking, if it is to be we'll carried
through, needs much time. The winter
months are a bad time to ask people
to do anything like this. Tho summer
months are much better. And don't
think this is too early to SOW the seed
of your undertaking. The chances are
that you will be still gathering in your
sheaves in November and December.
In the second place, in order to get
other people to share the responsibility
with you, why not follow somewhat
1.-The scheme I once suggested for the
money. colection2 Get 2 dozen of the
II girls nearest friends to act as months
That will mean that they will con-
tribute four or five davs themselves
and be responsible for the balance OF
the days in their month. They in turn
lean appoint weeks. who Will have to be
| responsible to them for the seven days

To anyone who attempts this scheme
I wish the very best of luck

The first annual picnic of the Cor

Not only was the attendance all that
was expected for the initial picnic, but
it was a most congenial crowd that as

felicitate themselves upon having re-
located in the best city In Kansas. At
the dinner hour So people, young and

and pleutifulness of which was proof
that prosperity was no stranger to
these former COncordians in their new
home. At least so others who former
ly resided in Concordia We're unable
from one cause or another to be pres
ent, but no doubt another year, most
of these will get into the game.
Following the feast came a business
meeting at which the temporary or
ganization effected in Nay was made
permanent and then came the hour for
short talks and "reminiscences. Among
those who were heard from were w.
w. Bowman, E. E. Chapman, Dr. Bow
ers, Walter Ross, Mr.. Fisher and 9TH
ers. Some of those present were in
Concordia as early as 1870. when It
was u mere village of 80 or a hundred
souls, but then, as now. an important
place on the Kansas map.
At $50 the assem- blage embarked Oh
