DR. B. [. EHRENRE|CH PRESIDENT
Convention of Jewish Edu- cational Association Is
 Drawing to Close
THE PURPOSES OF LIFE
Election of Officers Feature of Meet ing-Close With Service This
 Morning

Rabbi B. C. Ehrenreich of Montgom- cry was elected president of the Ala bama Jewish Religious Education asso- citation at the Friday night meeting. The election of officers and the lectures of pr. Julian Morgenstern of Cincinnati and Rabbi G. A. Moses of Mobile were fea- lures of the last night session.
 In addition to the president, officers elected were: Rabbi A. G. Moses of Mo bile first vice president; Mrs. M. Sachs of Troy, second vice president; Herbert w. Febelman of Mobile, recording sec retary;s Miss Adeline Moses of Montgom- cry, corresponding secretary; and Il. Ii. Hecht of Gadsden, treasurer.
 The convention, which has been in ses- sion at Temple Emanu-El three days, will come to a close with the service this morning. Dr. Morgenstern will deliver the last of his series of lectures.
 Progress and Education was the sub ject of the address of Dr. Moses last night Dr. Moses referred to the mate rial developments that time has brought about, such as the telephone, the auto mobile and the like. He said that these might be used for destructive purposes, but that the only way in which they could truly show progress would De through constructive use.
 INSPIRING ADDRESS
 The address of Dr. Morgenstern on Purposes of Life' was said to be the most inspiring of any he has given. He spoke of the four fundamental things of life, Birth" Marriage" 'The Birth of the Child" and Death
 "The first three things we never ques- tion," he said. We know that we are here and we do not ask the why nor the wherefore. When marriage comes We are so overwhelmed with the joy of it that we do not question. And with the birth of the child, while there is occa- sional doubt. this question is also such ar overwhelming one that it is accepted.
 But death is different. We ask our selves why our loved ones should be taken; why the good die, and the wicked are left, and other such questions, which show doubt
 He referred to that part of the Bible where Moses asks to be allowed to look upon the face of the Lord and to the answer of the Lord, Whoever looks upon my face shall surely die"
 T do not know the reason for death, he said Tt is a question that cannot be answered. But I know that it is right. I only know that while we live, we should live so as to make conditions better for those who come after we are dead, and to work for better world"

EXPERIMENTATION OF FORCES

 "As I see it, the most effective way to do this is to do constructive work, fearlessly, openly and aboveboard in the interest of all our people.
 we shall, of course. endeaFor to CO., operate with other civic organizatio tions in any movement in which they shall desire our sympathy. But in our present posi- ton we shall be able not only to CO., operate, and to follow, but to take the lead in movements where we think some lead should be taken"
 The new board, at its first meeting yesterday afternoon, voted to wage an active campaign to get the armor plate plant located in Birmingham or the Blr- mingham district.
 The movenl ent for a new civic organiza- ton was started more than six months ago, and the new organization is the out growth of much work CT the part of the men interested in it.
