EDl 1T0RlAL
PARENTS AND CHILDREN.

For much of the unhappiness, dis
cord and misery we find in many a
modern Jewish home the parents
have but themselves to blame The
heart-rcnding scenes of aged par
cnts who see their children gradually
drifting, if not already drifted away
from the old moorings is but the
outcome of their own folly in the
bringing up Of these children. Our
people are nowadays too indifferent
to the religious training of the young
for their own good, for their chill
dren's good or for anyone else's
good.
Our children must stud French
and German and music and art; but
their Bible and their history and
their religion they shall study only
if they choose or cherish a study of
these If we ourselves make it appear
as though Our religion we're of little
consequence, our history a matter of
Indifference and our Bible worth
less, how can the child hold from
becoming estranged from Judaism
when our own attitude and activity

JEWISH ACADEMICIANS.

The unicn and association of peo-
pie who have certain interests in COM
mon or wish to promote certain bene-
fits for themselves or others, is a COM
mon tendency in the modern world
And nowhere is this tendency more
pronounced than in this country.
Workingmen have their unions; so
have clergymen. Merchants have their
associations; SO have musicians and
literateurs.
In the Jewish American world the
tendency to unionize, to associate
and to organize is equally strong. We
have various associations of rabbis
and congregations; unions of Jewish
workmen and Of shochtim associa-

TEMPLE WEDDINGS.

1t seems pity, indeed, that among
us Jews the custom of holding we'd
dings in the house Of worship has not
become universal nor even frequent.
AS it is we cannot surround marriage
with too much sanctity. II we realize
that marriage is, after all, but social
arrangement to which is given the re-
ligious sanction, and that it is this

religious sanction mainly which i'll
sures the welfare of society in its do
mcstic relations, we ought to spare
no effort to throw as sacred and sol
cmn an atmosphere as possible around
the two uniting hearts. And where
can there be for us more sacredness
or solemnity than in Our Temple?
Of course, we are aware of the fact
that in some cases Temple weddings
are impracticable on account of the
larger expenses attached to them. But
what about those large weddings in
which great sums are expended on en-
tertainment? Nor is the fear of being
gazed at a valid excuse. Serious
minded people will certainly not mind
the presence of well-wishing friends,
and no couple has right to get mar
ried unless they are serious minded.
Besides, one may always restrict the
invitations to as small circle as one
plcases.
We have no special hankering for
the discarded customs of by-gone
days, but it seems that past genera
tons knew much better than we do
today how to make wedding cele-
bration both joyous and solemn at the
same time In addition to the pre-
scribed rules for the bride and groom,
as the fasting, praying, dispensing of
aims, ETC., a professional humorist
(Badchon or Marcl1alak) used to be
engaged for the purpose of preserv-
ing an even balance between the en-
joyment and the solemnity of the oc-
caslOn.
Our greatest trouble today is the
levity with which marriages are con-
tracted. A great deal is said nova
days about the readiness of people to
be divorced, but little complaint is
made Of the hastiness and the light
hcartedness with which Our young
sons and daughters rush into marriage.
Perhaps we are too old to comprehend
Cupid's dealings with the latest gen
Grafton. But it seems to us that if we
could succeed in making marriage
more serious there would be no need
of rendering divorce laws more
stringent

THE AMERICAN JEWISH WORLD

do not contain the least trace OF rev.
crcncc or respect for anything CIV
ish?
And even though we have a Sab
bath school, and even though that
Sabbath school be very efficient, and
even though your young hopeful at
tend that Sabbath school, what may
you expect from child or school when
your homes are engaged all week
in undoing the work done in but
few hours? Our school depends
altogether upon the cooperation of
the home and is absolutely power
less without that cooperation Our
home life must supplement our Sab
bath school course, or our instruc-
ton can be of no earthly benefit to
the child. The child's mind is very
impressionable, but it is by far more
susceptible to example than to pre-
ccpt. If the principles that are
taught in the school are not carried
out in practice in the home and, even
worse, if the home influences coun-
teract the school instruction, the
child will grow up irreligious, irrev-
ercnt and I'm ewish.
And, pray, what good influences
does the modern Jewish home afford
the child? What is there about our
home that attests to the teachings
and tencts of great religion what
that bears witness to the noble prin-
ciples of people that has long lived
for an ideal? Is it the money-mak-
ing madness of the father; is it the
poker-playing pest of the mother?
We think it most dismal and
pathetic period in history when the
Jewish mother had to count her
beads on the rosary while her lips
moved in prayer. Is it not thou
sand times more dismal and pathetic
to see the modern Jewish mother
count her poker chips on the gaming
table overlooking with disgusting
profanity?
How profound is the wisdom of
our Bible where we are told: "And
these words, which | command thee
this day, shall be in thy heart, and
thou shalt teach them diligently un-
to thy Children We can teach
Gods word to our children only if
we have it in our own heart. We
can hope to lead our children to our
faith and fold only through our own
consistent and devout example, only
if we ourselves live our religion.

At The Baptist
Church Sunday

The Scriptual reading preceding
the sermon was from Acts 8, giving
an account of the wonderful CONVEX
sion of Saul of Tarsus A solo by
Mrs. Cason, docs God Need Me,
was a message in song to each heart
and an inspiration to the service.
Bro. Wears theme was the "Conver-
sion of Saul" with the keynote Sauls
words: Lord, what wilt thou have
me do spoken when Paul realizes
the presence of God and his claims
upon him for service
1t is a verified statement that
every great movement centers about
some personality, some soul having
the elements of leadership and per-
sonal magnetism. Such personalities
as Moses, John the Baptist, and Paul,
stand out in Biblical history as great
and grand characters. Before the
conversion of Saul he was filled with
religious prejudice, which is one of
the greatest evils, leading to perse-
cution One of the inherent rights
of man is the right to worship his
God in whatsoever manner he de-
sires Saul's great prejudice filled
his heart with hate, causing him to
be murderer, wrecking and break
! ing up homes and in his zeal ana
hatred trying to destroy the follow
ers of Christ.
Hearing the voice of God through
the brightness of the vision. he is not
disobedient to- this heavenly vision.
The call comes to many man along
the highway of life Oh. that they
might answer like Paul: What wilt
thou have me to do?" This is a
question of paramount Importance in
each life.
We can by flight of fancy mag

version of the prosecutor. Paul

church at p. m. with Mrs. w. Fl

self-denial and prayer is observed
that the knowledge of the work may
be broadened, the interest deepened
and possibilities for greater work es-
tablished.
The work among the LatinAmeri-
cans is being studied and this brings
the matter very close home as mis-
siors are established in this State at
Tampa and ether points. Songs OF
helpfulness and cheer, prayers OF
faith and thai fnlNees and Scripture
articles were read bearing directly on
the subject by the leader, assisted by
Mines. Wilson, Weaver, Boring.

Sarah Polk and others, all of which
gave much information. A unique

IRL HICKS DEAD

Rev. Irl r. Hicks, astronomer ana
pioneer long range weather forecaster'
died at his home in West St. Louis re-
Gently. Hicks was editor of a month
" magazine, Word and Works, which
carried his weather forecasts which
were remarkably accurate. His early
career in this work met with great
deal of ridicule as well as abuse, but
nevertheless he had the respect and
confidence of thousands who relied up
on his weather predictions and to
whom his death will be considered a
distinct personal loss. Bradentown
