"There was no exhorting necessary in

man of the state campaign for funds for
Jewish War Relief, who returned Thurs
day from trip to the Range, "the peo-
pie literally brought their money with
them"
There is now a total of $4,000 re-
ceived from Virginia, Eveleth, Chisholm
and Hibbing. Last year only $4,000 was
the total from that district, sum which
Virginia alone donated this year. Hibbing
gave $4,000 from it's war chest, while
Chisholm and Eveleth gave $4,000
each, the balance being made up from in
dividual subscriptions of the Jewish peo-
pie in these towns. A mail campaign to
reach every Jew in the outlying mining
towns is expected to yield several hun
dred dollars more.
The allotment for the entire state out

JEWISH STUDENTS RECEIVE
HONORS AT U. OF M.
Thirty-five Receive Degrees.


The close Of the academic year at the
University of Minnesota, brings to light
a number of interesting facts concerning
Jewish students in the Northwest. This
year some of the highest marks in schol-
arship were won by our students, besides
a number of forensic honors by under
graduates. Prominently among these
is Seeman Kaplan, now in the army,
graduate of the school of architecture,
who was awarded the gold medal of the
American Institute of Architects, a field
in which Jewish students were
thought incapable of distinguishing them
selves.
Sol Fineman and Maurice Nathanson,
graduates in medicine, made the honor
airy medical fraternities. Undergraduate
forensic honors were won by Samuel
Maslon of Minneapolis, AL 20, and Rose
Feigleman of Minneapolis, A '21. The
Albert Howard Scholarship for post
graduate work was won by Abraham Ep-
stein, B. S. II.
OF those receiving medical certificates,
Sol Fineman is now inferno at the Uni
versity Hospital; Maurice Nathanson,
Virgil Schwartz and Sam A. Weisman
are at the City Hospital. Another gradu-
ate, David Kadesky, is with the U. of M.
Base Hospital in France. The degrees
of NJ D. were made by Morse Shapiro,
now commissioned lieutenant, and Max
H. Hoffman of st. Paul.
The college of dentistry has the big
gest number of graduates this year.
These are Oscar H. Abrahams, Isidore
S. Beckenstein, Fiske I. Brooks, Jacob
Krieshef, Louis G.. Moss, Victor l.. Silver,
Emanuel Zimmerman. There are four
graduates in pharmacy: Earl M. Green
berg, who was president of his class, Abe
Strimling, VIM. Strimling, Louis Stein.
The college of chemistry graduates two,
Goodwin JosselowitZ, now in Camp
Dodge, and Leo Kasselman. In Engineer
ing College there are FOUR Martin Smo-
lensky, Jake M. Levin, Harold L. Roths
child and Morris Greenberg who is now
in the army.
Most surprising Of all is that there is
only one graduate in law, Louis Sachs,
now in the army.
B. A. degrees were made by Annie
Ginsberg of St. Paul, Bernard Zalkind,
VIM. A. Weiss, Felix Moses, Alex Hirsh,
Ruth A. Jacobs, Minnie Helstein, Livia
Appel and Irving Frisch who is now in
service.
VIM. F. Friedman received the degree
of Bachelor of Laws from the Minnesota
College of Laws last week. Mr. Fried
man is now associated with Allen &

going to Baltimore to work, because
they could earn more money and have
better homes there.
The police of Alexandria have also
been asked to watch for her.
Two other girls from the store, with
whom Annie was last seen, have not
yet been located. The police think
they may have enticed her to leave
her home and go with them

His direction on drives is good.
He is a better driver than putter.
HE keeps his eye on the ball.

he made several mines and tens.
He didn't say very much to me
during the game, although sew
eral times he said. where's the

PAPER RLITTERS
BEAUTIFUL
D. c. PARKS
By BILL PRICE.

The beautiful parks of Wash
ington are frequently Uttered
with paper (Which is to high to
waste) and something should be
done to stop the disfguring OF
the parks, the cleaning of which
costs for the paper alone as high
as $50 per day.
That is the burden of several let.
ters received by this writer and also
OF a resolution introduced in the
Washington Chamber OF Commerce
calling upon the authorities to
adopt more stringent regulations >
etc.
A talk with Col. Clarence Ridley
superintendent of public buildings
and grounds, reveals, along with the
conservation and Identification fea-
lures of the complaints. a human
side of widespread interest
The fact is that this littering is done
by thousands of young women and
men clerks at their MONDAY lunch
con hours, but aside from the ef-
forts that will be made to have them
place paper. from their lunch pack
ages in receptacles put through the
parks for that purpose, they will not

cursions from hot office buildings to

Parks Uttered.
Colonel Ridley's own words tell the
story: Yes, il is true that many of
the parks are badly Uttered from pa
pers around the noon hours and some
times in the afternoon and evening
hours, and that we have a force of
men to collect this litter, but no strin-
gent regulations are going to be
adopted that will discourage the use
of the parks by people at all times
Of the day.
There was a time when the parks
were simply beautiful TO look at and
walk through. Now they are used by
humanity especially the humanity
which gives its best service to the
Government in hot Government build
ings, and at intervals seeks the di-
version Of the outdoors for a brief
respite and the peace that should go
with a MONDAY meal
"Of course we would like all these
people to remember that old paper
is valuable and that IL placed in re-
ceptacles that will be found in the
parks it will be worth something, but

Increase the Recreations.

Government officials having to do
with welfare work, the churches and
religious organizations of all denomi-
nations, the Y. NJ. c. A, Y. W. c. A,
and practically all known agencies
seeking the uplift and happiness of
mankind. are striving every minute
to entertain and please the young
Government workers and soldiers in
the city. Schoolhouses are open
nightly for community entertain
ments. the churches are working
overtime, and yet thousands of young
people seem unable to connect with
these social diversions They return
to their homes weary and dissatisfied.
Many other elements enter into the
Dissatisfaction, it is officially known.
but one of the main reasons is in
ability to enjoy wholesome and clean
friendships in an old-fashioned way.

this office will not put anything in

Keep on the Grass.
Keep off the grass" has for years
been a familiar sign in Washington
parks. Nobody tries to enforce it
these hot MONDAY hours, when thou
sands of young clerks troop out upon
the green grass and eat and talk.
There ought to be many hundreds
more benches in the parks, but who
minds sitting on the grass?
These young people have come to
Washington by the thousands to
serve the Government. They are
packed two and three to small bed
rooms at night. often more than that
number in one room. There is little
that is inviting where they work.
There is little that Is inviting around
their boarding houses. They have
met few people. Opportunities for
social pleasures and recreations are
not widespread as they might be il
the Government watched that side of
their lives more carefully. The trains
that bring hundreds OF new ones here
each day are taking hundreds back
to homes in the States. where they
have their circles of friends and lone
someness plays no part.
So Colonel Ridley invites them into
the parks and tells them to enjoy
every minute they can spare.
The public grounds that are most
Uttered at times during each day are
Lafayette Park. opposite the White
House, the White House grounds
south of the State. War and Navy
building, portions OF Potomac Park
near the big temporary war office
buildings. the Smithsonian Grounds.
around Sixth and B streets, the
Bontannical Gardens and the park
