STEPHEN WISE AND LIFE"

DIR. Stephen Wise. in the Amcri-
can Weekly Jewish News dis
cusscs "Lifc's" attacks ,,on Jews
and different methods of over
coming their ill effects. He asks:
rs there nothing that Jews can do:
Yes. there is one thing that Jews can
do. Pay a little less attention TO the
Miller Mctcalfc Life and little more
attention to their own life. In other
words. nothing could be more umfo"t-
unate for the Jew than ceasclcss ON
phaSiS upon what other people tlI!uk
of the jew and what other PEOPLE are
saying about us or against US. Praise
or dispraisc ought little concern fine
ly proud and sclfzrcvering jew. The
thing that alone matters to me is the
content of Jewish life. 1t is not what
Mr.. Miller says that hurts me but what
Jews do that hurts all Jews. We can-
not and We would not silence him. but
we would and ought 10 do all in order
to give u minimum of excuse to him and
his kind for villification of the Jew.
There are those among us who do
all they can to dcbase Jewish life, to
cheaper Jewish values, to degrade Jew
ish ideals. A Jew, who today dc*rauds
the government, docs more harm to all
Jews than fifty years of Life. For Life

FRIDAY EVENING MELODIES"
BY Rabbi |. and S. L. Goldfarb.

The occasion is very, very rare
one when one can speak of volume
of religious music as being charming.
The Goldfarbs' book of Friday evening
melodies can therefore occupy priv.
ilegcd place. 1t is II book of charm
ing, melodies. The composers, in their
toreword, state that it was their aim
to create melodies that would combine
the unsrammatical but emotional mel
ctlies of the Orthodox Synagog with
the grammatical but wcarisome hymns
cf the Reformed Temples. and in this
task they have succeeded most admir-
ably. The melodies arc thoroly jew
ish in character. beautiful in texture
and harm0nized i'll musicianly man
ner. ~
Some of the melodies arc so charm
ing that they linger in the memory.
and when associated with the text
instinctively inspire love for the Sab
bath service. They are not at all diff
fic,Ilt to sing. Most of them are very
ly designed for juniors, but there is
refinement of feeling in them that is
very appealing even to the senior
whose interest in Liturgical music has
l,een somewhat waned.
There are twenty-One melodies in
the book. All are arranged in two
parts. with a siIuple piano accom-
laniment which is Il harmonization
of the melody itself and can consc-
Qucntly Il" played as simple piano
solo.

II. G. WELLS NEW NOVEL.

"Jpau and Peter the Story of an
Education is the name of new novel
from the pen of II. G. Wells, the pro
life English writer. While it does not
quite come up to the standard OF some
of his former and more recent works.
it nevertheless possesses no little mcr-
it. In order to understand Wells, one
must project oneself into Wells land.
While he belongs to what may be call
ed the modern day iconoclastic school
Of English writers, he has style and
II method all his own and uses the
media of delightful story or an in
tcrestinS recital to air his grievances.
In, Joan and Peter, we meet with sew

MIR. CHEsTERTON AT 1T AGAIN.

In his journal, The New Witness
Mr.. G. X Chcstcrton recently again
took up his fight with the Jewish pco-
pie. and. this time his charges are so
grave and so far-rcaching in their re-
suit that the Jewish community i'll Eng

fcnSr.
Mr.. Chcstcrton brings II charge
against Sir Alfred Mond who, he nj.
legged. had been guilty of trading with
the enemy and thus guilty of treason
to the country in time of war The
accusation was taken up by the Di-
rector of Public Prosecutions, who, uD-
on examination. found that no offence
whatsoever had been committed. Mr..
Chcstcrton. like IIaman of Old how
ever, was not satisfied with accusing
one Jew. He broubht an indictment
against all the Jews of England, de-
