COLLEGE SUNDAY SCHOOL OPENS

The opening session Of the College
Sunday School last Sunday saw a

were many who have been at Berea

Appropriate exercises had been
prepared for the first morning.
These were in the form Of welcome

superintendent, in behalf of the Sun

representing the men Of the faculty:
Mrs. Frost representing the wives OF
the workers; Mr.. Griffin on behalf

duty as men TO go back TO our home

father and mother, boy and girl,
school teacher and all, the great pos

Kentucky youth.
When one OF our boys or girls
have had a vision and come In con-
tact with the outside world, he or
she is recognized. Men and women
are listening with an open ear to
what the Eastern Kentucky lads and
lassies have TO say.
There Is not one OF us today who
can not do great work In our own
community. Much Of II must be
done through the rural schools.
Therefore. let us go back and reveal
10 our rural school teachers the
great responsibility that is resting
upon them and strive with them TO

THE SILVER ANNIVERSARY
OF A SCHOLARS ACTIVITY.

The Hebrew Union College of Gin
cinnati at its recent commencement,
showed various marks Of honor to
one of its professors, DR.. Gotthard
Deutsch, the occasion being the pro-
fessor's twenty-ffth anniversary as a
member of the faculty of that institu-
ton. 1t was day of rejoicing to his
host Of admirers.
DR.. Deutsch is probably better
known, by name if not in person, to
American Jews than any other Jewish
scholar and writer in America. And
we venture to say that he is equally
Well-knoWn to Our coreligionists
abroad. His position in the field of
American Jewish scholarship is
unique. He is probably the most YER
satile and most variedly-gifted man of
learning in the midst of American
Jewry. He is as familiar with the
works of Ibsen and other modern
dramatists as he is with Jewish his
tory and Jewish literature. He has
tried his hand at different literary
compositions, including a drama, al
though most Of his literary work has
been in the field of Jewish history, and
Jewish journalism. He has written

JEWS WITHOUT JUDAISM.

In the course of a mastery address
to the graduating class of the Jewish
Theological Seminary of America, DR..
Cyrus Adler. acting president of the
school, said: 1T is true that there can
be no Judaism without Jews; but bet
ter that the Jews perish than exist
without Judaism.

These are words that we should in
deed, take to heart in these days Of
confused thinking, or confusion with
out thinking. There is no excuse for
the existence Of Jews as separate
group unless they exist for the cult
walton of those ideals that are COM
prised in the word Judaism. This i'm
plies, of course, that we are using Ju-
daism in it's broadest possible sense.
1t does not mean legalism, or ritual
ism. But it does mean the ideals for
INFLATED by lsrae1s prophets and
sages of all times, ideals sprung from
their consciousness Of divine pres
ence and guidance in the world, di-
vine law and order. Of these ideals
we are the historic guardians.
That people should continue to live
in the world, bearing the name eW,
and yet be utterly unmindful of, and
Indifferent to, these ideals, is, to say
the least, an anomaly. Why perpet-
uate a name and render it inglorious?
Nor can we Jews be satisfied with
negative virtue, negative qualities
only. 1t is not enough that we are
able to say to the world, we Jews are
just as you are; there are no more
wrong-doers among us, no more
money grubbers, no more pleasure
seekers and materialists, than among
you. Our merits must be of positive
character. The efforts of Our lives
must be a real contribution to human
ity's progress. Our Judaism must
make us recognizable as Jews. With
out it, it were better, indeed, that we
cease challenging the world by Our
separate presence.

EDl T0RlAL
A MEMORIAL TO PRESIDENT
WILSON ON BEHALF OF
ZIONISM.

In 1891 Mr.. VIM. E. Blackstone
of Chicago presented a Memorial
to Benjamin Harrison, then Presi-
dent of the United States, entitled,
"What shall be done for the Russian
Jews" in which memorial, signed by
many prominent citizens of the
country, it was prayed that the good
offices of this government might
be used to intercede with the gov
ernments of Europe for an interna-
tional Conference to consider the
condition of the Jews and their
right to a home in Palestine.
How far President Harrison went
at that time to carry out the wishes
of the signers of that petition we do
not know. Some action was prob
ably taken by him which led to no
results.
Mr.. Blackstone and his friends,
however, among whom is Mr.. David
C. Bell of Minneapolis, an old time
ardent supporter Of the Zionist
movement, have renewed their &C
tivity, and are now preparing a me-
mortal with new set of signatures
of representative individuals, So
cieties, organizations, and public Of
fcers, to be presented. to President
Wilson on behalf of the same cause.
The memorializers deem the out
come of the present war a most OPP
perfume time for calling such an
international conference of the
powers. The memorial has already
been endorsed, so Mr.. Blackstone
reports to Mr. D. c. Bell, by the

THE UNPROGRESSIVE PARTY

The Progressive party, as party,
together with it's leader, the Terrible
Teddy, we'll deserved the inglorious
end that awaited them in Chicago.
A party that We'd with the other
two in it's clamor for military pre-
paredness, for high tariff and all
the other pet doctrines of our latest
type of patriots, is, to say the least,
very unprogressive party. The
spirit that animated it's convention
was we'll shown by the fact that
when a member of the resolutions
committee proposed that the party
pledge itself not to conclude treaty
with Russia, or with any other
country which will not expressly Sc
cure the rights and equal treatment
of our citizens, native or naturalized,
without regard to race, creed or ma
tivity, the hall was filled with a
chorus of ''nos," and even some
Kisses were heard. The party, of
course, would not think of offending
Russia in that manner. 1t was
proper enough for Russia all these
years to defy the United States by
considering it's passport as worth
less scrap of paper. But Russia
must not be. offended.
The recent convention conclus-
lively showed that the party had no
serious object any more except to
make the doughty Colonel president
again. True, there were some real
progressives in attendance, but they
were small minority, or else were
powerless. And SO the party met
it's merited fate. Peace to it's
ashes.

Telling What He Would Have

Legislator.
(By Rossf NJ. Isisher.)

WILsONBURG, Dec. 16. Some
time ago the Telegranl's .correspon-
dent at Wilsoaburg with his minds
eye on Kansas and California said
something about the Progressives
voting the Democratic ticket and this
brought out a protest from a writer
at Jarvisvtlle. The correspondent in

with the teacher at Wilsonburg. as
he has already sent the Progressives
and Republicans at JarviSyille TO the

minority party in the nation. thus
losing its efficiency in national legis-
lation, and probably destined to be
come a negative party, not from
choice, but from dtsanpcintments.
Taking q broad view OF the political
field and realizing that the very spirit
and genius of our republican form
of government demands ut least two
strong healthy parties, I am quite
sure am not going to experience
any trouble in voting the Republican
ticket. a political party must re
main partially unjust because men
are human and therefore selfish.
The Republican party needs the Pro-
1gressives and can never win without
them, and the Progressfves need this
party as the only efficient force able
