The American Jewish world. [volume] (Minneapolis ;) 1915-current, 1918-08-09
August 9, 1918.
LOCAL NEWS

as 1t may seem, it is no other than
little book OF the Bible, the Book of
Ecclesiastes. What could there be new
about it, and what makes it worth while?
In the trst place it is printed in modern
form and arrangement, disregarding the
stereotyped medieval division into chap.
tiers which is very often quite illogical.
This new edition exhibits the verse
structure of the original, and the division
into paragraphs is according to subject
matter. Opposite the Hebrew text is
a translation into Yiddish, and following
the two is an English translation The
merit Of both TRANSACTIONS is that they
reproduce the structure of the original,
the same division into paragraphs and
lines, the English paragraphs being sup
piled with appropriate headings, and that
they are not literal and stited, but rather
aim to freely reproduce the sense, and
that, too, according to the most modern
and approved Interpretation. 1t is really
a pleasure to read them. The whole is
preceded by an interesting and scholarly
introduction in Yiddish, discussing the
book, it's authorship and its contents. It's
author, editor, and publisher, Mr.. L. Har-
rison of New York, intends to publish
all the other books of the Bible in the
same form and manner, which is very
ambitious undertaking and in which we
heartily wish him success.

A LETTER FROM THE FRONT.

LETTER FROM THE FRONT.
From letter of Lieutenant Aaron
Rosenbleet, who is now in active service
with the Royal Flying Corps in France,
to one of his friends:
I'VE are now in France and our Air
dome is situated in low orchard, SO
that our location will not be known by
the "Fritzies." No, | am not an Ace vet.
but we are practicing patrol formation
and expect to start knocking H out
of the Fritzies in about three weeks.
Tomorrow is the Fourth of July, and
we expect a great day here | wonder
what the Hun thinks of the million men
we have here. 1t certainly must have
been Fourth of July fre-cracker ex-
plosion to him, but l know that it is
not all yet. He may and will be SO
shocked in the future that he will not
know where the explosion has occurred
so badly stunned will he be. Good old
U. She may be slow but he is sure to
come. The Hun does more to make the
Y. ). realize that the war is on, than all
the public speakers, Cabinet, and press.
His infantile attack on our coast ship
ping had only the effect to make the
U. S. realize that we are at war and
make the Yankees more than ever eager
to bring the war to a decisive finish
"All the English outside of .bigots,
demagogues, and insinuating fanatics
know full we'll that the U. S. came in
the war not to profit but to lose most
