Friends and Gifts

Mr.. and Mrs. John Lorden. with
their children and grandchildren,
quietly celebrated the golden ami

The center of attraction at the home

and oak leaves.
At $3.50 o'clock last evening the

scented Mr.. and Mrs. Lorden with
some gold to fit the occasion, after
which refreshments were served.

it was intended to be ambiguous.

of them will without doubt fail to
properly evaluate American life and
American institutions, thus becom-
ing a danger to the life of the gem
eral community.
We must remember that the flu
ture historian will not judge Ameri-
can Judaism by it's wealth., infu-
ence, and philanthropy, great as
these may be, but by it's contribu-
ton to Jewish education.
Those concerned with the welfare
of the Jewish communities will
therefore confer a lasting benefit
upon the community by becoming
interested in this vital problem. If
the building Of community struc-
ture is our aim, shall we lose sight
of the foundation stone of the struc-
ture? Ours is the opportunity to
perform great service. Shall we
let it go by?

ZIONISM IN ENGLAND.

One of the most impressive 81 GINS
of the spread of the Zionist move
ment in England is the meeting
which was held in Birmingham on
Sunday, October 18th. This was
the largest Zionist demonstration
ever held in the Midland capital and
in addition to the leaders of the local
community, who have not hitherto
identified themselves with Zionisn,
there were present Mr.. Neville
Chamberlain, (son of the late Mr..
Joseph Cowen) Mr.. M. M. Kann
and Simon of the Hague, and Mr..
Rosoff of Russia.
Mr.. Chamberlain recalled his late
fathers interest in Zionism and the
offer made to him by the late DR..
Herzl of East Africa. He felt sure
that his father would have been one
of the first to welcome the declara-
ton by Mr.. Balfour, Colonel Amery
said that the fears entertained by
some Jewish opponents of Zionism
that the establishment of Jewish
state in Palestine would effect their
position outside Palestine were
groundless. He was convinced that
the contrary would be the case.
On the motion of Mr.. Sokolow,
seconded by Mr.. Joseph Cowen a
resolution was passed "pledging
those present to use their best en-
deavors to secure the achievement
of the object Of the declaration Of
November End, 1917, and express
ing qualification at the complete
liberation of Palestine' Mr.. Soko-
low said that Zionists identified
themselves with British policy be-
cause the British were affording full
opportunity to every nationality to
develop in it's own light.

THE VITAL COMMUNITY
PROBLEM.

PROBLEM.
Now that the war is happily over,
all efforts seem to be turned to the
problems of reconstruction. But
reconstruction means the rebuilding
of the things that the war has dis
rupted or destroyed. That being
the case, the American Jewish Com
munities have little reconstruction
work to perform. The efforts of
American Israel must instead be oc-
cupied with the problems of con-
struction. We here have little to
rebuild but a great deal to build.
We must construct the proper Jew
ish community. While we all hope
that Zionism will solve many of the
problems of Jews and Judaism, yet
we must not lost sight of the fact
that the majority of Jews will dwell
in the Diaspora. Therefore, to es-
tablish Our community life here is
as important as the establishment
of the New Palestine.
The problem uppermost in the
mind of every American Jew inter-
ested in the maintenance of Jewish
identity and Jewish solidarity in
America must be the problem of
Jewish education. While Jewish
philanthropy, Jewish charity and
Jewish social service have lately
begun to assume community
spirit, Jewish Education is yet far
from becoming community affair.
However, when we realize the num-
Der of Jewish children in the Twin
Cities that receive no Jewish train
ing at all, the problem undoubtedly
assumes great importance to the en-
tire community. 1t has been rough
1y figured out that there are at least
$500 Jewish children of school age
in the Twin Cities, receiving no
Jewish education whatever. 1t has
also been pointed out that more
than o5 per cent of our Jewish girls
grow up ignorant of our history, lit
erature and institutions. Can we
imagine the danger these children
will be to a constructive community
life? Not only will they be lost
to Judaism but, lacking the proper
religious and moral training, most

that it is held in thrall by the power
of capital. Capital is the master,
labor the servant. The demand for
higher wages, better conditions, bet
ter hours, is only the direct and i'm
mediate, and, we might say, tenn
porary expression of this grievance.
But back of it all is the restiveness,
the discomfort of labor because it
is subject to the controlling power
of capital. This is true not only of
the extremely radical champions of
labor, like the Bolsheviki or an
archists, or syndicalists, or I. w.
WIS, but even the most moderate
of them whose leader and spokes-
man in this country is such man
as Samuel Gompers. Samuel Com
pers has nowadays become highly
respectable citizen. He is honored
and feted and cajoled by all the
mighty of the earth. He has be-
come SO respectable that there is
well-grounded fear that the Repub
lican party may run him yet for
president of this country. It is of
this class of labor that we speak.
For what is it that this class be-
lieves in, aims at, strives for? 1t
is known as unionism. 1t believes
that by means of unionism it will
assume power and control in place
of capital. Instead of capital hav-
ing power over labor, labor, when
completely unionized, will have pow
er over capital And that will give
rise to the inevitable struggle, if
the struggle will not break out
sooner.
Surely there must be a way out Of
it, way to obviate it. There must
be way by which men may learn
to work together, and alongside of
each other, and to live together
without one group 1ording over the
other. Don't say that it is impos-
sible, that there must be lords and
servants, masters and slaves. That
was precisely the crazy philosopher
Nietzche's idea that poisoned the
German mind for a while, the idea
Of the superman, the man who lords
it over all others. And he and his
followers taught the Germans to be-
1ieve that they were the supermen.
1t is possible There must be a
way. How can it be brought about?

tered, needed, and followed, the

SOLDIERS HARVEST CROPS.

CAMP DIX, WRIGHTSTON, N. J., Get. 1.-The soldiers are harvesting the crop from the 300-acre demonstra- ton garden planted last spring by the National War Garden commission. They are counting 300,C00 ears of sweet corn and 480,000 pounds of po- totoes as well as weighing 1000 pounds of hay and measuring up over 60 000 pounds of string beans.
 The soldier-farmers gave a harvest luncheon. Lieutenant Bonner took great pride in showing a field of broom corn from which the reclama- tion service will make about 1000 brooms. Ask Mrs. Housewife if this is important and she will say yes, for brooms are now over the dollar mark at the corner store.
 Indications here are that the war department will do big things. next year now that this demonstration gar den has made good" with a crop valued at $25,0O0.

 line and swift advance would i'm peril the entire German force inside the sack from the Disc river west Of Flavigny to Sissonne, east ot Laon.
 Probably the greatest resistance of the allies is faced by the Americans on both sides of the Mouse river. Vicious counter attacks are being de- livered against the men from the United States, the fierceness of the assaults indicating that fresh forces have been brought into the fray to halt their do-or-die efforts to proceed up the river valleys and thereby com pei the Germans in case of a retreat to wend their way obliquely north eastward instead of eastward, toward the German border. Concentrations of artillery are being used against the American positions at various places. Gas shells are not being spared by the enemy in his efforts to hold the Americans in check.
 All the counter attacks of the Ger mans thus far have been withstoo6 by General Liggett's men, and the American artillery is answering the German guns shot for shot
