pie has come too late to our atten-
ton to be morally benefited by it.
We, too, Speaking for the Jewish
Reform Congregation of Mime
apolis) have been enjoying the hos
pitality of friendly neighboring
congregation on our holy days,
namely, the leading Universalist
Church. But it never occurred to
us that as mark of our recognition
we ought to carry the gospel of Jew
ish AUGMENTATION to the Univer-
salists. In our modesty or selfish
ness we always thought that Jewish
AUGMENTATION should be carried
on only among our Jews, altho we
believe in more general kind of
Americanization for all alike.
Now seriously speaking, what is
it that our Episcopalian neighbors
want? To carry on conversionist
propaganda among the poor foreign
born and as yet un-Americanized
Jews. tits an old game at which the
Church of England has been for a
long time, and at which it has been
more persistent than any other de-
nomination, and on which it has
spent fabulous sums of money with
the same meagre results. There are
plenty of rich people in that church
who are willing to spend good
money on church work, and it is
the object of the leaders to show
them how and for what purposes to
spend it.
But how can the church expect
any results from its large expendi-
lures for such a cause? Of all the
Christian Churches the Episcopal
has the least to offer the Jew. The
Catholic church. offers him escape
from purgatory and perdition; the
Christian Science Church freedom
from sin, error, disease, and death,
no more and no less; the other
evangelical churches a measure of
democratic fellowship in Jesus. But
the Episcopal church has nothing of
all this. It is just church of fash
ion, wealth and comfort; a church
of fine people, rich bankers, and
other magnates In such fashion
able institution the Jew will never
feel at home. In fact, the member
ship will positively object to Jews
in their midst, and should they ever
succeed in converting a large num-
Der of Jews, they will probably have

far superior in every way, il seems
that this publisher could be using
his paper to a better advantage.
