The approach OF Christmas and the

proximity OF the gift season like the
Thousands of New Jerseyites are
awaiting the time. watching number

only from the usual sources, but from
the proverb contest. These pleasures
have been looked forward to by them
since the entry day; from the time
they took the first picture under con-
sideration and wrote their first an
swers. The hope is crystallizing into
a realty now, for but a short while
remains before the reward for their
labor and the results of their work
will be known.
Hundreds of other readers of this
newspaper have failed to take the
necessary step to place them in the
way of the awards. They have put
the matter off from day to day, say
ing that there Is still plenty of time.
IT want those back coupons, all Of
them" said a visitor to the Evening
Star office this morning. "I read in
the Morning Star that only ten days
are left in which to work out the an
swers. I have put this thing off long
enough; but I'll make a showing. My
names - -; you see if it is not
among the lucky ones"
Only ten days remain for those
hesitant ones who thus far have
failed to get in line for the contest
awards to do so. Today's puzzle pic
ture is marked No. Al. and there are
but nine more pictures to be de-
ciphered before the big Santa Claus
stocking is cut down and its con-
tents distributed.
There is, however, ample time for
any one, no matter how ignorant of
proverbs, to supply himself with one
of the specially published proverb
books and by the concentrated effort,
win one of the splendid awards.
But the decision must be made at
once. If you wont to have your
name on the presentation list get

OUTLINES PLAN FOR
JEWISH EDUCATION
"New York Scandals Due to
Lack of IT,"

"a Plan of Popular Jewish Educa-
ton was the subject of a talk last
night by Chester Teller, of New York,
at a meeting of the Young Peoples
Society of the Congregation Bnai
Abraham. The lecture was followed
by an entertainment In the synagogue
of the congregation at Thirteenth
avenue and High street.
Rabbi Silberfeld, of the congrega-
ton, was introduced as chairman of
the evening by Louis A. Fast, presi-
dent of the society. The rabbi de-
plored the lack of systematic Jewish
education for Jewish children and in
troduced Mr.. Teller.
According to Mr.. Teller there are
about one million Jewish people in
New York, of which quarter are
school children. OF these 250,00O chill
dren, he stated, there are 10000 who
receive no Jewish education.
Mr.. Teller, who is the manager of
the extension work of the Bureau Of
Education of the New York COM
munity, outlined the system used in
that city for spreading Jewish educa-
ton among children. 1t was men
toned by Rabbi Silberfeld that, 81
his opinion, the graft scandals preva-
lent in New York are due largely to
the lack of specific Jewish education
for Jewish children. Mr.. Teller
showed lantern slides to illustrate the
method of establishing centres for
the children, where they are taught
Jewish history and religion.
Violin solos were rendered by Mil
ton Scheininger, son of Alderman
Scheininger.
