About Judaism

ISAAC MAYER WISE. THE FOUNDER OF
nam. New York
Jews and others interested In Judaism in
America can find few more comprehensive
works on the subject than the book Isaac
Mayer Wise, the Founder of American
Judaism-A Biography" by the famous
rabbits grandson, Max b. May. The book
is more than a biography OF him whom
the author describes as the most promi.
nent figure in American Judaism during
the last half of the nineteenth century :;
since the description is so well warranted,
the biography is, in fact a history of the
Jewish religion in this country during the
last fifty years.
The biography is an effort TO provide
what Rabbi Wise apparently was too busy
to set dOwn-a complete record of his
activities and achievements He was too
engrossed in his works for his own people
and their faith, too much occupied with
his writings for the advancement of his
religion, to find time 10 write about him
self or even to make notes from which
satisfactory story of his life could be writ
ten What the rabbi failed to provide, his
kinsman. who was ever closely associated
with him and in sympathy with his ideals
and ambitions, has given.
After brief consideration of Rabbi
Wises antecedents, Of which not too much
IS known, Mr.. May describes his arrival
in New York in 1916 with much luggage
and little money" and then proceeds In
detail to relate the rise of the immigrant
to a position Of influence in which he could
carry forward the movement closest to his
heart. Chapters follow concerning the
rabbits varied activities and experiences,
including his troubles with Beth lil congre-
cation resulting from his progressive and
so-calied heretiCal views.
The biographer is aided In some measure
by Rabbi Wises "Reminiscences" but these
are rather meagre and most OF what is
told is revealed from personal association.

interest. Urga lies. at the edge of

is a lama. The chief lama in Urga
is as great parsonage in the North
as the Dalai lama half a century ago.
Thousands upon thoSands of lesser
lamas adore him and tens of thou
sands of the populace In their turn
adore lesser 1amas. There is also a
college for the study of religion In
Urga, so that holy men in all stages
of holiness are present in great num-
bers. There are frequent festivals,

and making of offerings and ceremo-

A certain publishing house in Lon

cost a University of Wisconsin pro-

The manuscript is a translation Of

authorities found it and returned it to

doRE THAN RULES NECESSARY
Telling Child Your Parental Precepts
Doesn't Help Him to Carry Out Sug-
qestions-He Should Be In
terested in Behavior.
BY sIDoNIE M. eRuENBERe.

TT is no wonder that mothers become
III bewildered. There are so many
things to keep in mind in order to do
the right thing by your children. There
are all the rules about bathing and
clothing and feeding the dears; there
are all the rules about toys and exer-
else and play, and there are all the
rules about punishment and manners
and keeping your temper. 1t is all
very distracting.
The trouble with many of US is that
we try so desperately to get the rules.
And the danger is that we often get
no more than the rules. With all the
new ideas and suggestions crowding
upon us, the conscientious mothers
seek the earliest opportunity to apply
the new methods. But in too many
cases we remember the formulas and
repeat them as we think aloud about
a new situation.
David" said one of these conscien-
tious but bewildered mothers. lit is
very important for you to acquire hab-
its of punctuality. So do not linger
on the way to school," OF course, we
know what she meant and that she
meant well. But she was still too con-
scious of a remote purpose in the
child'S character to translate this pur-
pose into the most effective conduct.
So far as the child is concerned, he
needs merely to be impressed with the
Importance of coming to school on time
and not with the Importance of his
habits of punctuality.'' He needs
merely to be assisted in forming the
desired habits and not worried about
his moral salvation. When the moth
er's purpose has become thoroughly as
simulated her attention will be upon
the things to do and not upon the
things to say.
The problem for the mother thus be-
comes one of assimilating valuable
ideas until they become parts of her
habitual attitude, instead of being re-
membered rules or mechanical tricks.
Cousin Elsie was not able to button
her CATERS herself, and Cousin Effie-
several months younger and barely
four-marvelled the feat. Mother ~
she observed, Il thought all little girls
learn to button in the MontesSori.' -
Which advertised not only the fact
that she was in the MonteSSori class,
but also the further fact that her moth

ence of the child. The child was nc

TarantuIa Hawk Mans Friend

Tarantulas prefer loose, stony
ground for their habitat. The foolish
creatures come out for a stroll just
before the sunset hours, at the very
time when the tarantula hawk, or
killer, is out looking for them. The
vicious wasp is quite sure to find them
and, although the fight may be long
and the tarantula may make a tena-
cious defense, the wasp's lance will
finally pierce and stupefy the taran-
tula, whose body will retain warmth
during the required number of days
required for, the incubation of the
eggs which the wasp will deposit in
her victim. When the grubs of the
baby tarantula hawks appear, the I'M
gracious little things will immediate
ly proceed to devour the warm husk
that gives them protection and life
thus fulfilling their destiny and Incl
dentally protecting the jewellers on
the border.
