today the situation is quite different.
The "Schnorrer type has been
pretty we'll weeded out There still
remains, however, the type who for
some cause or other has failed to
keep pace with our complex modern
society and is known as the Social
misft" or "schlemihl," who, after
vainly attempting to extricate him
self from those conditions, has be-
come disheartened and lost hope
and ambition. 1t is with families of
this character, that the charitable
organizations are largely called up
on to deal with. The amount of
money spent does not begin to tell
of the time and energy expended in
such cases. 1t is quite an easy mat
ter to give material aid, but the eff
fort that goes beyond that in real
constructive work is far more diff
cult.
We are often told that the Jewish
religion teaches to give aims to any
one who may extend his hand, but
we find the following in the Talmud:
"The noblest charity is to prevent
a man from accepting charity; ard
the best aims are to show and en-
able man to dispense with aims
and organized charity makes every
effort toward that end.
The methods and care in the
treatment of what might be termed
legitimately dependent families,
widows and families where the head
and bread winner is either physical
ly or mentally incapacitated has also
undergone great change. No longer
are children separated from their
parents or parent and sent to child
caring institutions because of de-
tendency. Nor are mothers of large
families of small children required
to go out to work in order to make
it possible to keep their children
with them, which generally proved
detrimental to the health of the
mother and the physical and moral
well-being of the children. Families

THE JEWISH CHARITIES OF
ST. PAUL.
BY Helen Grodinsky, Superin-
tendent

The eWlSh Charities was organ
lied in 1911 with view of concen-
trating all effort in the collection
and distribution of funds for chart
table and philanthropic purposes,
and to eliminate indiscriminate
forms of solicitations and disburse-
ments.
That the object of the organiza-
ton has been fully attained is at
tested by the fact that the Jewish
Charities has not only become the
clearing house for all Jewish relief
work in St. Paul, but for all social
service work as we'll, thus prevent
ing duplication and waste, both Of
effort and money, and conserving
the integrity of the families dealt
with.
To deal with dependent families
effectively the whole-hearted coop
Grafton of the community at large as
we'll as Of the existing charitable
and philanthropic agencies is abso-
lutely essential. Constructive work
is impossible without such co-opera-
ton. It is, therefore, with feeling
of pride and appreciation that the
Jewish Charities speak of the sp1en-
did support of the various organiza-
tons, Jewish and non Jewish, and
Of the Bichor Cholim, Sisters of
Peace, and Hebrew Ladies' Aid So
ciety in particular.
The presidents Of the respective
organizations act as a relief commit
tee of the Jewish Charities and all
cases coming to their attention are
referred back to that organization.
Until quite recently there was an ar
rangement whereby the above men
toned organizations contributed
jointly 40 per cent toward certain
cases, mailing their. checks direct to
the families; but last October they
reached decision to turn their re-
ceipts over to the Jewish Charities
monthly, and have the checks go
from one source. This has facil-
tated the work a great DEAL

NUTS BADLY NEEDED FOR
MAKING GAS MASKS
(By Associated Press.)


New York, Nov. 4.-Every boy and
girl in this country Is again asked
by the United States government to
help save American soldiers from the
horrors of German gas. The Chemi'
cal Warfare Division of the Army has
urged them to gather every walnut
hickory nut and butter nut in the
woods about their homes this fall to
help make gasmasks for the Ameri
can troops In France. It is from the
shells of these nuts that the charcoal
for gas masks must come for the next
six months or more.
There is said to be ready and
profitable market for the nuts meats,
making it practicable to turn the
shells In to the government immedi-
ately. Whole nuts can also be used.
For collection purposes the Req Cross
has arranged 100 collection centers
through the country for the concen-
tration of shells. They will be shipped
from these points in carload lots to
the government carbon plants at New
York and San Francisco.
The Boy Scouts have enlisted the
aid Of their $4,000 young members in
this work, as have the Camp Fire
/ Girls. Through the Department of
Agriculture all county agents of that
department will organize nutting par
ties. In addition every school IS
urged to arouse the interest of its pu-
pills and to encourage nut gathering In

time.
The aid of the young people will be
absolutely necessary to supply the
100000 pounds OF shells and fruis
stones that the government produc-
tion schedule calls for. The govern
ment cannot buy more than one-third
the necessary shells at present. In
fact, they declare. that the shells OF
all the cocoanuts grown in the Wes:
Indies and Central America, II they
could be obtained, would not fill the
needs. They are making arrange
ments to get the shell from the East
Indies, but it will be months before
the plan can be put into cooperation
