The committee for investigation,
appointed to inquire thoroughly into
the proposition Of erecting a boarding
house in this city for employed young
woman, has been exceedingly busy this
past week.
Letters have been sent to all of the
business houses of the city and manu-
featuring concerns where young Wo-
men are employed and the heads of
these institutions requested to send
to the committee, the names of all
those young women who are not

mite steps will be considered by the
Young Women's Christian Association
to establish such boarding house,
the plans for which were generally
given In a recent issue of this paper.

The Jews are an optimistic. people
They preserved their solidarity and
their religious and racial integrity by
calm philosophy of life. They refused
to be stampeded by calamity howlers,
frightened by DULLES, intimidated by
the bigoted and inhuman inquisitors
who sought for centuries to make
their lives miserable and degraded.
They shrugged their shoulders steeled
their hearts and struggled on to fight
in the cause of God and of Israel The
literature of the period of exile is not
a joyful literature, but it is not liter
ature of pessimism and complaint. The
fast days, such as those of Tammuz
and Alb, were periods of mourning and
regret for departed, glories. But
coupled with the mourning was firm
ssdeterminati6h-to to: fight the fight out to
stand firm for the truth and the right

They are Of wool red or white usu-

once familiar in baby afghans.
Sometimes they are plain; some
times they are h0rderod with dark

have a long quill-feather or kid or
iVelPet-~causht ~ little haIf-moon
ornament. Never anything mere thai,
that-simpliciiS is their raison detre.
They are attractive and easy to
make. II You crochet ut all you must
have one. and if YOU don't crochet
YOU must learn how, says the Phila

For country tramps or for any
open-air Wear they are ideal, since
they 1T closely over the hair, do not
need hatpins and yet do not dfsar-

Moreover. no snow OF rain can in
