 The first American Jewish congress, which has attracted the attention of tho Jews of America since 1914, and which was postponed when the United Htatcs entered the war in order that the energies of the Jews of America might be concentrated in their patri- otic resolve to help win the war, was opened in the city of Philadelphia, the birthplace of Liberty and the Amer ican flag, on Sunday afternoon in the Metropolitan Opera House.
 This beautiful and spacious play house, with capacity of almost 5000, was unable to house the multitude

that sought entrance to with eSs this extraordinary gathering, and thou sands were turned away. Four hun dred delegates were present from all over the United States speaking for four million Jews in this coun- try. Some of the delegates present were men of renowned ability and of international reputation, representing every theory, philosophy and phase of Jewish life. Among those present were Nathan Straus, philanthropist and president of the executive com mittee of the congress; Louis Mar shall, chairman of the American Jew ish committee; Colonel Harry Cutler, chairman of the welfare board for soldiers and sailors; Federal Judge Julius w. Mack; Jacob Schiff, fnan- cier and philanthropist; Jacob De- Haas, of the Zionist Organization of America; Professor David Amram, of the University of Pennsylvania; Abra- ham Elkus, former ambassador to Turkey, and Judge Hugo Pam, of Chicago.
 The congress was called to order by Colonel Harry Cutler, of Provi- dence, R. T., chairman of the admin istrative committee, and prayer was offered by Rabbi B. L. Leventha1, a delegate from Philadelphia. Colonel Cutler delivered a, brief address in which he outlined the history of the congress movement, and then went on to say:

I'll tell you something more:
A rural carried way out West
Forgot himself and swore;
He said: 81 can stand the snow
drifts,
can stand the frozen locks,
But blast the measley pennies
In blasted measly box"
When the "roll is called up yonder,"
And we all shall gather there,
They wouldn't let mail man in
If they knew he'd learned to swear.
If you want st. Peter to open the gate
When your rural carrier knocks,
Boy stamps and don't be guilty
Of putting pennies in the box.

Adjutant General Gave Co e Author

If the flu continues to spread il
may be necessary to have an emer.

care for several patients. Anticipat-
ing this demand the local Red Cross
asked Co. E., X. N. G., for the Arm.

taken up with the Adjutant General
who wired thine permission to turn
it over to the Red Cross if desired.

It's the everlasting pennies.

And | would like to sell few,

But a man can't sell unless you buy,
No matter how he talks,

After the pennies in the box.
It's alright in the springtime,
Or when the summer breezes blow
But different proposition,
When it is thirty-two below.
When all your fingers and your toes,
Are frozen hard as rocks,
It's most anything but funny
Scratching pennies from the box
And now, quite confidential,
