RECORD CROWD
AT RUGGLES
FOR SUNDAY
Largest Crowd In Many Years at Rug
giles CampgrOunds Yesterday.
(By ]. II. RI

Ruggles Campgrounds, August A.
The last Sunday, the biggest day OF
the campmeeting is drawing to
close. The day has been fine though
a little too warm for a great crowd
to feel comfortable in. Never such
crowd assembled on the grounds be-
fore. BY noon the attendance was up
to that of last year which Up to that
time was considered a record-break-
err. During the afternoon they have
come in droves. There must be near
four thousand people here. And a
better behaved crowd never visited
the grounds. Everybody in a good
humor. OF course not all attended
church-that would have been an i'm
possibility as the tabernacle VIII not
hold more than thousand. Our
beagle-eyed policeman Mr.. Hendrick-
son gives it as his opinion that 1t is
the most orderly crowd we have ever
had. Last year several bootleggers
were rounded up on the last Sunday
This year Mr.. Hendricksin has not
even got a Whit of liquor. 1t was a
great sight to see the automobiles out
In the woods-it was full of them.
No doubt but what many came to
hear the fine music that we have
spoken of so much. The reputation
of Mr.. Dodds and Miss Mcclellan, and
the big chorus has spread through the
country. Those who heard the musi'
cal part of the services were not dis
appointed. The big chorus was at It's
best. The special numbers given b!
, Mr.. and Mrs. Dodds, Miss Mcclellan
and the two Quartets were the hes
of the campmeeting. Then the crow
2 had the gracious opportunity of hear
{ ing DR.. Nichols, the evangelist an
2 missionary, three times. Despite
I little huskiness of voice DIR. Nichol
= was in fine trim and gave three mas
d terful sermons. The afternoon ad

: on the Chinese Boxer Uprising, Tn

s the more vivid because of the person
o al touch. 1t is certain that those WI
heard him have clearer conceptio
of the causes that led up to tho'
times and the consequences than the
have heretofore had.
We will not attempt to give al
III personal mention of the great CROW
III that would be well-night impossible
nc Suffice it to say that for the distan
nc of forty miles around the country WI
well represented.
This is written before the closl
service. We may have a few mo
notes after it is all over. We clio

Of course, there will be syna

Judaism will be great seat of
learning, where Israel's Torah and
all literatures, arts and sciences will
be cultivated. The Jews ideal has
been knowledge. His religion is
based on knowledge more than on
faith Study has been his chief reli-
gious duty. Absorbed in his studies
the Jew forgot his misfortunes. AS
symbol of this ideal and passion of
the Jew there shall tower above all

Here is an opportunity to strike that
blow against an autocracy more
baneful to the peace and freedom of
the world than that of Imperial Rus
sia-an autocracy which now mena
ces free Russia and threatens the
democracy which should exist there.
A blow struck now is a blow for
free Russia, for free world. Every

battalion is an honor Jew, an honor

HONOR ALIENS.

Great Britain is recruiting in the
United States one or more Jewish
Battalions composed of friendly
aliens for service in Palestine. At
first the idea of a Jewish army
sounds somewhat homogeneous. A
nationless nationality is to organize
national army. ews of French,
Russian, Rumanlan; Italian and
British allegiance are to form
a unit under the British flag
for service in the land holy
to the three principal religions
of the western world. And all
in the name of Democracy
Could such destiny be possible to
any people other than the Jews?
But after all why not? Jews must
be as good as their neighbors and
then some more If American non
Jewish citizens volunteer for SER
vice, Jewish citizens must volunteer
in larger percentage. According
W lIlC SldllSllCS dl Ildllu TIC Is uOlllS
it. If non-J ewish aliens in the
United States volunteer for service,
Jewish aliens must volunteer in
larger numbers. If the facts could
be known, it is probable that the
alien Jew is doing his share.
Here is an opportunity for Jewish
aliens to become honor aliens. By
enlisting in the Jewish battalion they
demonstrate the willingness Of the
Jew to bear his share in the struggle
of democracy against autocracy, they
demonstrate that the alien in the
United States is not using his alien
age merely as a shield behind which
to escape service.

man vowed that if he ever had the
opportunity to strike a blow for
negro freedom he would strike it.

BRITISH FAITH.

Will Great Britain keep faith ?
Under the promise of free home
land she will induce hundreds and
thousands of Jewish youth to volun
teer for military service who other
wise might not heed the call to arms.
No one believes or expects that Ger
many will be able to dictate terms
of peace to England at the close Of
the war. If Britain can dictate the
terms or even if compromises must
be made in arranging the peace con-
ditions, will England remember her
contract with the Jews?
If one could only photograph aspi-
rations and hopes, what picture
the Jewish battalions in Palestine
would make. These youths see in
themselves the fulhlment of the
dreams of their ancestors for two
thousand years. As the son reaps
the fruit Of the tree planted by the
father who knew that he would
never live to see it bear, so this
generation of Jews is about to har
vest the liberty for which their peo-
pie were preserved. If these hopes
and aspirations were to be disap
pointed? If Britain should forget !?
But Britain will keep faith. The
whole world is witness to her prom
Use. 1t was not lightly given. 1t
will not lightly be ignored. The
consideration is being paid daily in
blood and suffering. The betrayal of
the Jewish dreamer, who leaves his
dreams, girds up his loins and jour
neys to Palestine, there to turn his
visions into realities, would be SO un-
worthy Of great people that it is
unthinkable that Great Britain
would be guilty Of it. Britain will
keep the faith. The Jewish soldier
in Palestine may yet be the Jewish
citizen of Palestine.

the use of the buildings of the
Imam Zion hospital instead
of requisitioning them for mill
tary purposes. What makes this
act even more significant, is the
fact that the buildings of the Imam
Zion Hospital are the property of
German organization. It is now
called the Hadassah Hospital. DR..
Kagan has recently written several
letters to the Hadassah office in
New York, which reflected not only
her own happiness, but the joy of
the entire Jewish population of
Jerusalem over the new era of peace
and protection that was ushered in
on the first day of Chanukah, when
the British took possession. She
writes among other things:
AT last the hour of our deliver
ance has struck proclaiming the,
end of our suferings. A world full
of light and hope "Opens before our
eyes. !. Our hearts swell with
Joy to see the work of Hadassah
emerging from it's period of suffer-
ing at last and recognized by the
English Government !. The
Palestine Amt represented, by
DR.. Thon, and the American
Relief Fund represented by
Mr.. Hoofen, have granted Hadas-
sab monthly subvention FIR. 3,4OO in
gold for the establishment of a
hospital for children's diseases and
a home for convalescents. There
can be no doubt but that the estab-
lishment Of this work constitutes an
extremely important event in the
sanitary conditions as we'll as in the
development of the future of the
children of this city. Apart from the
fact that the development of our
children suffered from the famine
with which Jerusalem has been
struggling three years, and that the
mortality rose tremendously because
of lack of resistance, certain we'll
defined infections caused by famine
have manifested themselves. Every
physician who had such children be-
fore his eyes suffered deeply for he
felt the helplessness and anguish of
a man who sees his people perish
without being able to assist them.
