On account of the necessity for pro-
ducing and conserving our own food
and because OF the worlds great need
for food and our duty to help supply
this need, it will be necessary this
year to conserve food in every way
possible. Canning is the most popular
and perhaps the best method of pre-
serving food, but ON account OF the
scarcity and high price of containers,
it will be necessary 10 use other meth
DDS also in order to conserve ali the
food products The old time custom of
drying is so old that it has almost
passed "out Of date" and some of us
have almost forgotten it, but it is a
most economical and practical way of
conserving food, and should be
brought into use again. There is moth
ing new in the drying Of fruits and
vegetables except possibly the pro-
cess.

Methods.

Three methods of drying have been
found TO give satisfactory results.
These are sun drying, drying by ar
tifcial heat, and drying with air
drafts as before an electric fan. Trays
for drying by any one of these meth
eds, as well as tray frames fer use
over stoves can be made satisfactorily
at home. Frames and trays for use
with artificial heat may be purchased
complete if desired.
Sun drying is not so satisfactorily as
drying by artificial heat, because il
takes longer (to dry in SUM and spe-
cial care and arrangement must be
made to keep insects away from the
products as the insects will deposit
their eggs which will hatch out after
the fruit or vegetable has been pack
ed away for winter.
Il the sun drying method is used,
the product should be covered with
wire screening or something of the
kind TO keep flies away while drying
and before packing away il should
be heated in the oven for few min
utes to dry out any moisture that
might be left and 10 kill any eggs that
might have ben deposited by insects
unknowingly
II artificial heat is used, the fruit
or vegetable can be dried in an oven
in trays or racks over the kitchen
stove. or in a specially constructed
drier. If drying is done in the stove
oven, leave oven door ajar and notice
the temperature often. Do not have a
very high temperature, as the product
will dry too fast or will scorch.

A GREAT MEDICINE

That most successful of all rene
dies for woman's ailments, Lydia
Z. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound,
owes it's origin to a botanic recipe
which came into the possession of
Lydia e. Pinkham about fifty years
ago.
This recipe has proved so effoc-
tive in the practice of a skilled ply
stefan that Mrs, Pinkham procured
the herbs and stepped and prepared
them in true oid-time fashion on her
kitchen stove for her friends and
neighbors who suffered from wo-
mans ailments. The fame of the
virtues of this wonderful medicine
spread. until ii is today recognized
as the standard remedy for woman s
ills. adv

From the mutual criticisms, re-
ordinations and CondemnatlOns
that representatives of the liberal
synagog and the Zionist movement
indulge in, one would draw the in
ference that Reform Judaism and
Jewish nationalism were utterly in
compatible, and that one could not
be liberal Jew and Zionist at the
same time, no more than one could
serve two antagonlstlc masters. And
yet many a Jew of prominence, Of
merited leadership, and of great
service to his brethren is identified
with BOTH The liberal synagog and
the nationalist movement, and many
others have been so identified ere
now. Not only laymen, but rabbis
in the Reform synagog have been
and are quite active in the Jewish
nationalist councils. Surely many
of them could not be so inconsistent
as to be adherents of two naturally
exclusive doctrines
But a better knowledge and I'M
derstanding would easily dissipate
the idea that there is any necessary
antagonism between them. Reform
Judaism is the modernized, liberal
lied faith of the Jew. In most re-
spects it is analogous to the liberal
forms of Christianity. Its relation
to orthodox Judaism is in most re-
spects like the relation of liberal to
orthodox Christianity. All ortho-
dox religion is based on the three
fold authority of divine inspiration,
tradition, and the learned represent
tatives of the faith. Its doctrines
and it's practices are sacred because
they are either derived from sacred,
divinely inspired, Scriptures, or are
based on ancient and hallowed ira
dition, or are prescribed by the wise
men, the teachers of religion, who
as such, are vested with superior
sanctity and power. Hence such
doctrines and practices are binding
upon all the faithful Liberal re-
ligion recognizes no authority SUI
perior to ones reason and con-
science It believes in no inspired
writings, for it knows that all writ
ings originate in the same way they
are all the product of the mind of
man. 1t questions the authority and

BY DR.. S. N. Denard

the binding force of tradition The
fact that practice, or ceremony, or
law is old makes it venerable, but
not necessarily sacred and obliga-
tory. Some would-be traditions are
upon closer investigation, found
spurious, unhistorical. It accepts
the doctrines of the teachers and ex-
ponents of religion only in SO far as
they conform to our reason and to
our moral sense
Orthodox religion claims that
what was once holy must always re-
main holy. It takes no account of
changed conditions and circum-
stances, and human needs. 1t does
not consider that a law or a practice
that was useful or necessary in one
age may be useless and unnecessary
in another. Liberal religion seeks to
adapt itself to the changed needs and
circumstances of human beings in
every age It seeks to keep pace
with the general progress of human
lty. Orthodox faith does not dis
eliminate between the ethical con-
tent and the ceremonial in each re-
ligion. All are of equal validity.
Liberal religion distinguishes be-
tween the moral law, which is con-
slant and permanent, which is truly
divine law, in harmony with the
divine order of the world, and the
ceremonial or ritual, which is tenn
porary and mutable, and has value
only as a discipline, as a means to
higher end.
Such is the difference between all
liberal and all orthodox forms of
religion, and to this liberal Judaism
is no exception. Liberal Judaism,
however, when it first came into be-
ing, thought it necessary to adopt
for it's set of principles in addition
to the other liberal ideas, the declar-
alton that we Jews are not nation,
and do not desire to be nation any
more, but only religious commune
ty, forming part of the nations
with which we have cast our lot.
There was a reason for this declara-
ton, or the formulation of the prin-
ciple. 1t was at the beginning of the
era of enlightenment and emancipa-
ton. The Jews in all European
countries were clamoring for equal

rights of citizenship, for the removal
of all disabilities. They had many
non ewish friends who supported
them. But the Jews had all along
believed in and prayed for their ma
tional restoration in Zion Such
was the assurance given them by
their prophets and wise men. In
the fulness Of time they would be
gathered from all parts of the world
and returned to Palestine, there to
live as Gods chosen people again.
The Law should once more go forth
from Jerusalem. The Bible, the
Talmud and later Jewish literature,
and the old prayer-book are full OF
expressions of this faith and hope.
When the Jews in European coun-
tries began to demand equal rights
of citizenship, they often met with
the objection of opponents that the
Jews had no claim to citizenship as
long as they believed themselves
separate nation and hoped for their
national establishment in their
own land. That, of course, was poor
reason for refusing them equal
rights. But it served as an excuse
In the meantime liberal ideas in
theology, in politics and in every de-
partment of life were gaining
ground. People no longer believed
that every word in the Scriptures
or in the prayer-book was divine. A
great deal of humanitarian philoso-
ply was in the air. The idea of an
international humanity, of the WHIP
ing out of national, racial, and cred
al lines of demarcation, was casting
it's spell over many minds. The adj
vanced liberal Jews of Germany,
America, and other lands, were
equally fascinated by it, and to dis
arm all opposition to their claims,
they actually declared that we Jews
have given up our hope of national
rehabilitation. They were perfectly
honest in the matter. They thought
the millennium was dawning upon
the world, the era of the brotherhood
of man and of the united-states of
the world, the era of justice and
peace. And so liberal Judaism from
the very beginning identified itself
with this new program. Orthodox
Jews in many countries practically
subscribed to the same doctrine that
Jews are not nation any more, al
though they did not officially sur
render the old national hope of the
Jews.
That is why many leaders of lib
eral Judaism still harp on this idea,
