NEW CLASS TO ENROLL AT
FARM SCHOOL.

The attention of young men de-
string to take up the study of agri-
culture, is directed to the National
Farm School near Philadelphia, a
school which was founded over 81
years ago, and which stands today
as pioneer in method of agricul-
tural education that is being widely
heralded as the type that will ulti-
fnately replace all other kinds of
similar education. The National
Farm School lays stress on the edu-
cation of the hand as we'll as of the
head. 1t gives its students an OPP
portunity to do things as we'll as to
read how they are done. The school
is ideally equipped to carry on this
method of education. 1t is divided
into five farms, totalling nearly five
hundred acres, stocked with herds
of cattle, horses, poultry and all
farm machinery and implements,
while all of the work is directed and
supervised by an able corps of in
structors.
The National Farm School gives
to worthy young men, irrespective of
creed, three-year course of instruc-
ton free of all charge to them for
tuition, books, board, lodging and
other necessities.
The requirements for admission
are: age, between 10 and Fl; COM
mon school education; physical,
mental and moral health and sin
cere desire to make agriculture life
work.
Young men who are interested,
may write for further information
and an application blank, to Mr.. M.
A. Kaufman, chairman of the Com
mittee on Admissions, 407 Mutual
Life Building, Philadelphia. The
new term begins in March, but as
all applications are considered on
their merit, and in the order in which
they are received, it would be well
for such young men as might desire.
to enroll in the new term, to file
their applications as soon as pos
sible.

GROUP. RECONSTRUCTION.
January 10, 1919
By Hymen z. Mendow.

national and civic life is here. What
are the Jews of Minneapolis going
to do in the matter of group recon-
struction? The tendency toward
amalgamation of interests and activ-
tiles is very marked. This year our
separate efforts for war relief and
local charitable relief were merged
to gain for us better results and
greater power for good. Cannot
some of our communal activities
merge into one living virile organism
that will express its constituent
parts?
Here is the problem: Why have
we a Bnai Birth lodge that accom-
plishes no more than being a vehicle
for the distribution of funds to GER
tain charitable institutions? What
need is there of such lodge now
that there are so many other organ
izations that more than fulfill its life
less, bloodless purpose of uniting
Jewry" and maintaining a patriotic
sentiment among its membership?
Who would say that the Gymal Do
led club or the Atlas club or the Y.
NJ H. A. do not accomplish the same
results? And who is there that will
hold that any of these or all of these
organizations cannot in the same
manner distribute the funds to the
orphans and consumptives and aged
peoples homes, and such like phi
lanthropies? If the Bnai Birth has
any cause for further existence as
separate organization, why is it fail
ing to activate it's members in other
than mere routine matters? What,
in fine, is the Bnai Birth lodge now
that the other organizations are not,
and what has it to offer for the flu
ture?
But the problem is not solved by
the answer to these questions. The
Gymal Doled club and the Atlas
club, both needed, lively and worthy
organizations, live at cross purposes
with each other, each holding the
other in semi-contempt. Each is los
ing in communal efficiency by mere
duplication We have also a grow
ing and heretofore unnoticed organ
ization in the Y. M. H. A. This or
ganization is the builder of the for
native character of the future men,
bers of all of the other organizations
and communal activities. 1t has a
membership of about one hundred

versity, notably the three traternl-
ties, the Menorah, and the Zionist
societies, that seem to have no cor
relation with their complementive
organizations in the city. Thus, in
all, there is a large group of social
communal organizations that are
duplicative of each other. Some of
them are inter-inclusive in member
ship and most of them have the
same objects and aims for their ex-
istence.
The solution, it seems to the writ
err, lies in an amalgamation and cor
relation of all of these organizations.
Minneapolis needs one really big
central organization that will be all
inclusive This organization could
furnish and do all that each of the
individual organizations now fur
nish and do. Such an organization
could distribute funds as we'll as the
Bnai Birth and the Jewish War Re-
lief committee. Such an organiza-
ton could furnish adequate facilities
that would far Guido the club facil-
tiles that the Gymal Doled, the At
las, the Elysium, the Kadimoh, or
the college fraternities offer joint
ly, to say nothing of their several
Inadequate efforts. This larger Or
ganization could furnish educational
facilities that the Y. M. H. A., the
Women's Council, or the Menorah
could hope to offer.
Minneapolis is certainly large
enough to meet this immediate need.
Will Minneapolis Jewry now CAPT
talize it's future communal efficiency !?
In Portland, Oregon, the Jews have
concentrated all of this activity in
the Bnai Birth. A large building
houses all the activities, and during
the war period the Jewish Welfare
Board operated the whole plant. The
writer had the good fortune to see
the activity and felt ashamed of Min
neapolis and it's clubs and Bnai
Birth. In Chicago, the Hebrew In
stitute and the Sinai Social Centre
accomplish the same result. Ask
any man stationed at the Great
Lakes and he will tell you how in
adequately Minneapolis has taken
advantage of it's facilities for this
kind of work. In Washington, D. c.,
and in Cleveland the same holds
true, as far as the Y. M. H. A. is
concerned; in both cities they have
