GOVERNOR TO NAME
A 18th" COMMITTEE,
Joint Meeting With Councils
Body to Plan National Cele-
bration Next Week.

The appointment of committee by
Governor Brumbaugh to cooperate with
Councils Fourth of July Committee is
expected to be made early next week,
when joint conference Will be had to
plan the national celebration of the
Fourth of July in this city.
1t has been decided that the first step
will be an invitation to President Wilson
to attend the ceremonies, which in addi-
ton to marking the nations birthday,
will commemorate the 5Oth anniversary
of the end of the Civil War. The invita-
tion to the President probably will be
extended by Representative Ware, who is
expected to accompany Councils Fourth
of July Committee TO Washington.
Early action in the matter of invita-
tions is necessary for the reason thas
most of the distinguished men of the
country are in great demand for addresses
on the national holiday.
1t has been learned that the Governors
of many States would be glad to attend
the celebration here. and it is possible
in view of this, that the executives of all
the IS States will be invited, though at
first it was intended to confne the in
vitations to those of the Is original States
An elaborate and appropriate musical
program is assured for the observance, as
many of the leading musical organizations
of the city have expressed desire TO co.
operate.

EDl 1T0RIAL
THE PERNICIOUS AMBITION
TO MAKE A BIG SHOWING.

I'VE must start a campaign to
gain new members" Zone hundred
new members p Zone thousand new
members!" LET each one bring
new member?' Such is the cry
that is heard on all sides, from peo-
pie interested in different organ
izations and institutions.
If there is anything that makes
certain associations in this country a
sham and delusion; if there is
anything that kills the spirit that
animated them at the beginning, and
leaves them mere empty shells; if
there is anything that cheapens
them, vulgarizes them, makes them
of no interest to their own members,
not to speak of the outside world, it
is this desire and effort to increase
the number of members regardless
of the qualification, or the motive
of those who join to rope in every

are chiefly concerned about Jewish
societies), as long as big showing
is made, and the organization gains
in membership by leaps and bounds.
What is the reason of this pecu-
liar ambition of ours to make a big
showing with a large membership?
In some instances, and in the case
of a certain class of organizations,
the reason is obvious. A large
membership means larger income,
and an organization the purpose of
which is to raise money for some
worthy cause, charity for example,
or the maintenance of an institu-
ton, does not particularly care who
the people are who contribute the
money, or to what extent they are
otherwise interested in the society

bers? And we answer: Simply be
cause of the desire of making big
showing, stimulated by the foolish
idea that big figures impress people
with the Importance of the organiza-
ton, it's power, and it's influence
Whether people are really thus i'm
pressed or not, is beside the ques-
ton. The organization itself suffer,
thereby incalculable harm, as those
on the inside we'll know. People
who join not because they are in
terested, but because somebc !
persuaded them to do so, who join
reluctantly, are neither a benefit nor
credit to the organization. They
are not an asset, but a liability.
Meetings are poorly attended. The
evening is spent in trivialities and
trifling. The ideal purposes are
forgotten. Nobody considers mem
bership in the society a matter Of
honor or pride. 1t has been cheap
ened too much.
We do not mean that such a So
ciety should stand still, should not
seek to grow by the gain of new
members. But we should discrim-
mate in our quest for members. We
should take in only those qualified
for membership, and worthy of it,
those who by their Jewish interests,
and their interests in the community
show that that is the kind of an as
ISOLATION they should belong to.
Membership then would be mark
of distinction, a badge of honor.
Such members would not have to be
run after by collectors for their dues.
If that is aristocracy, then make the
most of it.

EDITORIAL NOTES.

In regard to Sabbath observance,
we rabbis in Israel find ourselves
in dilemma. We should like to
refrain from all labor, and yet we
must preach and lecture, which is
really as hard work as there is, if it
is done energetical1y. Would you
say that it is no work? Why do
we get paid for it?
1T has been generally assumed"
writes one of our young colleagues,
that the Jew is part of the svna-
gogue." Yes, one of the outside
parts.
Rabbi Foster of Newark is oppos-
ed to giving woman the ballot. He
argues thus:
The contention of the suffragists
seems to me to be unsound when
they plead for the vote on the sup
position that legislation which they
hope to shape will reform our times.
What we need is moralization, the
ethical and religious education which
