that the collar Is invariably too large

When the sun sets this evening,
Purim, the great Jewish holiday, will
be ushered in. II is the annual feast
day Of the Jews, which this year will
assume more the appearance Of fast
day.
Realizing the importance Of the Jew
ish custom Of liberal giving on this
day, Felix NJ Warburg, treasurer OF
the American Jewish Relief Commit
tee, has issued an appeal to all Jews
in thi, country to set aside the money
and food products ordinarily exchanged
as gifts on this day and forward these
to the headquarters Of the committee
for tho use Of Jewish sufferers from
the war in Europe and Palestine.
"The Book Of Esther commands that
on the 14th and 18th days of Adar we
make them days Of feasting and OF
toy, and OF sending portions TO one
another, and gifts 10 the poor" states
the appeal.
"Purim, 1918, comes on February %
in the midst Of one OF the greatest
tragedies that has ever overtaken our
people. Millions suffer in mental an
Guish and physical want. The home
less and those who are on the verge
Of homelessness; the hungry and those
on the brink of starvation; the sf-
ficted and the persecuted-to these
our thoughts must turn on this Purim.
LET this Purim Day be set aside by
all Jewish communities throughout the
United States as a day of giving with
out stint and OF helping without osten-
tation."
Tomorrow more than six thousand
Jewish young men and women will
canvass from house TO house in the
hundred largest cities of the United

Louis D. Brandeis, in appealing for

tricks sometimes, for his British
shrewdness and humor enable him to
use his intellectual ingenuity to play
the very exciting game OF making the
most imposing cases for all sorts of
quite desperate causes" And It is this
sort of uureality that Cecil Chesterton
evidently enjoys. He {, quite as para
doxical as his brother, and one feels
that all the time he is enjoying him
self and the situation immensely.
Home Broader than World Outside
~ cannot understand women when
they complain about the home being
too narrow for them" he said sud
denly, IN his very English manner.
Really, the home is much broader
than the silly world outside, In fact,
Il Is only because men have homes that
they maintain their balance. And |
can't understand, either, this cry Of
women TO go outside the home to work.
Il seems to me a much broader thing
for a woman to tell her little son how
the world was made than for her TO
become a machine IN an Office or
factory.
Out OF course the capitalists are
quite in sympathy with the woman
movement. It is fine, they say. Wen
put the wife in this mill and the hus-
band in that, and when the children
come along we'll put them to work,
too It is because | object to this
damnsble system that am opposed to
woman suffrage" he concluded.
"Woman's place is IN the home" It's
the old, old retort TO woman's cry for
a place in the world, and It takes as
unusual a man as Cecil Chesterton to
make II sound even interesting now
adays.

NAL, natural thing for the man to do
this, because he has always attended
10 the interests of the family outside
the home, as the wife has always at
tended TO them in the home.
Now, am an unmarried man, and

family is the institution we must con-
slider, and not the state. Il is not a
question OF whether women will be OF
value to the state, or whether the state
will be OF value to women. Il il mere-
ly a question Of the family.
Only One in Family Unit Must Vote.
"As a matter OF fact, should much
rather see the women alone voting, and
the men not, than TO see both women
and men voting"
Mr.. Chesterton then explained how
the woman's suffrage agitation grew up
in England. II seems that there we're
many unmarried women employed sc
clerks and typists, and they grew tired
Of mothering typewriters and we're
restless when they thought OF their
future They turned their attention to
government "a the cause Of their dis
content, and decided they wanted 10
enter politics. The suffragette was the
result.

IN France, and with good reason" he
continued. "The French woman is the

Doesn't Like Progress.
And then the little Englishman went
on TO complain that he didn't like
progress-in fact, he didn't know what
people meant when they spoke Of this
as a progressive age.
when one progresses one approaches
a definite aim. II J place layer OF

pie speak Of progressing when they
haven't any definite goal in mind. As a
matter of fact, the age is not progress
ing. We have no proof that our pres
ent civilization is greater than any
other civilization since man first ex-
listed. And we have absolute proof that
no people ever attained civilization by
their own efforts. The European coun-

record of a time when the Romans
