General Pershina's War Map.

In installing General Pershing's war
map in the old National Museum build
ing in Washington, the commanders
room at the front just as it looked
when the map was in actual use, is
being reproduced as a setting. Here
will be the chairs used by the general
and his aids while they studied the
map, which changed hourly. night and
day. as reports came in and were re-
corded. The table ut which the officers
looked over documents will stand as it
used to at one side. and the walls will
be covered with the identical lineoleum
that was background for the map.
The map was brought over in pieces
now Joined together, and the conven-
tional design Of the lineoleum is said
to give an odd kitchenlike domesticity
to the room in which General Pershing
watched history writing itself in u
very literal sense on the wall.

Woman's Use.

A visit to the laboratory where this

even the casual looker-on with the reli.
ability, accuracy, skill and cleanliness
which attends the making of this great

FOR THE Slx-YEAR-OLD GIRL
Wash Materials the Favorite for Chill.
dren Regardless Of Season

As radical style changes are infre-
Quent in children's garments, a COM

when the question OF help was a very
real problem. mothers indicated a very
decided leaning TO the little wool and

for girls Of all ages. from four years

hand work of some sort is the pre-
ferred trimming whether the dress be
of silk or cotton. Hand-smocked gar.

embroidery touches are much used, the

HATS FOR SUMMER
Chiffon and Georgette Chapeaus
Need Little Trimming.
Garden Flowers Of All Kinds and
Posies Made Of Ribbon Are
Fashionable.

With the approach Of summer
weather, the big hat is coming actively
Into its own. The first warm days de-
mand that the headgear selected shall
De small and rather close reefe,l to

hat Of this type is very smart with
narrow, straight-line tailored suit or
frock. But big hats are almost uni
fOrmly becoming. and when summer
suns begin to shine, spreading hat
brim is ii great protection TO he eyes
and complexion.
Not only are large hats definitely ap-
proved. but hats of the homemade
variety are seen IN the very best So
ciety.
The sketch offers two millinery sug-
gestions to the woman who is eco
nomically inclined and who has pa-
thence enough to spend the time that
is necessary TO make a hat A hat
must be well made if it is to be pre-
sentable at all. This is especially true
of the fabric hat. Large. rough look
ing stitches must be avoided and the
fabric must be carefully cut and laid.
These hats are fashioned Of chiffon
or georgette. Very little trimming Is
used on either one. The little fold Or
"ruffle" at the edge Of the brim gives
the hat very soft finish and adds to
its becomingness.
When trimming Is used on the
summer chapeau, flowers usually are
first choice. All kinds Of garden 6ow.

Rabbi Alexander Basel of the

know that the United Synagogue of
America is preparing new issue
of the Directory of Kosher Restau-

ably be more complete list Of
Kosher eating places, and the pub
lic-spiritedness which prompted
Rabbi Basel to write to us from
far away Bronx, will surely induce
him to place his information at the
disposal of the committee at work
on the new edition. Even such a
committee cannot be omniscient,
and anyone who has the informa-
ton should so use it as to make it
most serviceable.

there are such, for the strictly

ZIONIST EDUCATION.

The prospective opening of Pal
estine to Jewish immigration will
require one essential kind of educa-
ton in this country, to wit, the pro-
mitigation of knowledge regarding
Palestine The ignorance on this
subject which prevails among our
people is appalling. To many peo-
pie it is still a matter of doubt
whether Palestine is the capital of
Jerusalem or Jerusalem the capital
of Palestine.
People should be informed about
the opportunities and resources of
Palestine, and should be told in
what particular region it is most
desirable to settle. They should
be given as much information as
possible about the natives, their
religion, law and customs. The Jew
ish Zionist press will readily devote
it's columns to the spread of such
knowledge. Bulletins and pamphlets
dealing with the subject should
be scattered broadcast among the
people, and we'll informed speakers
should tour the country continually
and disseminate knowledge of Pal
estine.

are in any other respect different
from other young men, living at the

and under the same conditions. We
cannot too frequently and too en-
phatically deny the assertions made
by both anti-Semites and philo-
Semites that Jews are somehow diff
ferent from their neighbors just be-
cause they are Jews.
There are fortune-hunting young
men nowadays, as there have been
at all times, who are quite willing
to relieve some parent of daugh-
ter, provided said parent is willing
to be relieved Of some money, too.
But such young men are not neces-
sarily of Jewish origin. The dash

tenants of the German army,
would never think of entering into
a matrimonial alliance if there was
not a goodly sum of money in sight
at the same time.

the Jew in this regard. The Jew

AS THE HOLIDAYS
APPROACH.

note OF the ShOtar, warning that
Rosh Hashonoh is approaching
with it's need for self-examination
and betterment. Even the casual
synagogue attendant is beginning
to think of his annual supreme"
effort at piety, attendance at Serv-
ices thrice year. Almost every
Jew of course, still attends Syna-
gogue or Temple on the High Holy
Days. Even the Americanized Jew,
be he never so "Liberal' would be
shocked at the idea Of severing that
one band with his religious OBJ
servances. So the synagogues are
expectantly awaiting their harvest
of seat-rentals.
Yet we wonder how many Jews
realize their injustice to the Syna-
gogue, or the unbecoming role they
are playing, when their contribution
to the Synagogue's upkeep begins
and ends with the rental they pay
for a "seat' on the High Holy
Days. All year round the leaders
Of the house of worship plan and
worry and scheme to make both
ends meet, seldom succeeding.
They derive no more benefit from
the synagogue than the man who
comes only for Rosh Hashonoh.
Yet it is they who must bear the
burden, while others derive the
benefit without an effort
In any other line this would be
considered unfair, if not dishonor-
able. We can almost hear our
radical friends saying parasites, ex-
ploiters. In industry or communi-
ty this would be true Why not in
matters religious? 1t is too much
to expect that everyone be active
in communal matters. But should
we not expect everyone to con-
tribute their just share? When
will the average Jew who has been
found wanting in this regard, see
himself in his true light and make
amends? When will those who at
tend synagogue or Temple (and
who can afford to do so) assume
their share of the burden by active,
contributing membership?
