Last winter it cost IT,; Bangor troll
ley company about $4,000 to fight
snow. This year the bills to date have
figured but little over $4,000 and that
has been mostly for cutting out ice.
The big rotary plows have not been
out of the barns this winter. There
have been but two or three storms
heavy enough to interfere with the
schedule. when last winter it appeared
to be a continual performance of the
snow fighting. While there have
been many heavy storms in March in
time past, up to this time the snow
fall has been the lightest and the
temperature the highest average for
a great many years.
Norway can boast some smart aged
gentlemen among her inhabitants.
One is Joshua c. Yeaton who cele-

is busy this winter assisting his son.

for something to do is splitting and

High School Notes

Our basket ball team will meet
the New Richmond team next Fri
day night, Feb. 81, on the home
floor.
Ned Moe and Marvin Porteous
have both been discharged from
military service and are again en-
ioying life in their home town. They
each gave an interesting talk in as
sembly Monday, and gave US good
idea of the difference there is in the
life Of sailor and that of a soldier.
The next play, merry college
farce of three acts, entitled, "The
Strenuous Life" will be given April
4. Miss Williams has had the try
outs, and will assign the parts this
week.
Last Friday night our Junior High
school basket ball team played the
Junior High team of Ellsworth in a
preliminary game and beat them by
score of 35 to 5.
The Wahpahinta Camp Fire under
the guardianship of Miss Williams,
held it's annual banquet last Thurs
day night. The decorations were in
accordance with the Valentine sea-
son. All the girls report a good
time and confirm the suspicious that
the girls are good cooks.
Last Friday in assembly Mr.. Rear
don, one of the first overseas boys to
be returned home, gave US very
interesting talk about his exp eri-
ences. He explained very wildly
the gases used by the Germans and
he terrible eff ects they have on the
soldiers. He also showed us part
of his gas mask and how it operates.

Hundreds and hundreds of pa

no meetings, and give no testimony,
but their cases are known to all who

ALMOST TRUE, BUT FOR THE

FACTS.

Mr.. Henry Deutsch's Jealous and
ardent exposition of the truths Of
Christian Science in our last num-
Der would be, quite acceptable to the
average mind but for these facts:
In any given community physi-
clans and surgeons by their truly
scientific method effect more cures
in one day than do Christian Sci
ence healers in a month or year
Of course these physicians and sur
geons have no weekly meetings at
which all their cured patients rise
and give testimony.
In the course of past ages and
even at the present time other kinds
of faith and miracle cures have been
in vogue, cures most wonderful, all
duly recorded and testified to by
persons of apparently unimpeach-
able character In the lives of the
saints of early and medieval Chris
tianity, in the records of miracles
produced by holy relics and shrines
in the Catholic church, and in the
stories of practical Cabbalists and
woodworking Hassidic rabbits

THE ANTI-ZIONIST PROTES.
TANTS.

AIN >.
The protest against the accept
ance of the Zionist program by the
Peace Congress at Versailles,
which coterie of anti-Zionists have
drawn up and signed, and of which
Congressman Julius Kahn became
the official carrier, is to us a most
curious document. Not the protest
itself with it's expositions, pleadings,
and arguments. To this sort of
"shtoos" we have become quite used
in recent years. Any schoolboy
knows that you can argue against
any proposition, any idea, any move
ment, and you can always find some
to whom your arguments carry con-
viction. You can even convince
some people that there is no matter
and no pain in this world. The docu-
ment in question is most curious to
us because of it's signatories.
The Jewish opponents of Zionism
have told us again and again that
their opposition to the movement
is chiefly based on the ground that
we Jews are not and do not wish to
be a nation. but only religious
body, a denomination. This, of
course, is contrary to Our history
and to the whole spirit of historical
Judaism. Our whole history be-
comes meaningless if we accept this
idea. But granting the soundness of
this plea, it follows that only such
Jews have right to oppose Zion
ism who are Jews by religious af-
fliation, who are synagog Jews,
either of the Reform or the ortho-
dox school. A Jew who believes in,
and looks forward to, Jewish as
sanitation and absorption by the
complete de- udaization of the Jew
and even by apostasy and CONVEX
sion to the Christian faith, surely
has no right to oppose Zionism with
the plea that we Jews are only re-
ligious body. He has read himself
out of the household of Israel alto

on behalf of Jews? What kind of a
Jew does he think he is?
In this connection we must give
credit to Professor Felix Adler, the
leader of the Ethical Culture move
ment, in this country, who, as de-
Judaized Jew, has had the good
sense and the good grace not to
take sides on the question of Zion
ism. His idea probably is that It is
none of his business.
Now, who are the signers of the
formidable protest against Zion
ism? True, among them are few
rabbis, a mere handful, out of the
500 or more rabbis of this country.
With the exception of Drs. Kohler,
Philipson, Berkowitz and Sale, the
names Of even the leading Reform
rabbis of the country are absent.
There are also few signers who
are designated as present or former
presidents of congregations. AS to
the majority Of the others we can
not tell with certainty to what ex-
tent they may be considered Jews by
religion, how actively they are af-
filiated with the synagog, or
whether they are affiliated at all.
But this we do know, that one of
the drafters of the protest, altho a
reputable scholar and very honor
able man, has the same interest in
Jews and Judaism as he has in the
Chinese and Confucianism, no more
and no less. He has no more right
as Jew, to protest against Zionism
than Professor Felix Adler would
have, for his Jewishness, is of the
same character And this, too, we
know, that one of the signers from
Philadelphia, also professor, is not
only no aff1iating Jew, but very
much of an aff1iating Christian.
Some former Jewish students of the
University of Pennsylvania, where
that professor is spreading the light
of his knowledge, remember with
what contempt he used to speak to
them of Judaism, and that his
avowed purpose was if not to join
the church himself, at least to raise
his children as Christians.
How many more of this type of
Jew are among the signatories of
the protest, we do not know. But
the two. instances we have cited are
enough to make the protest very
curious document, indeed.

GOODS ROADS MEETING, FLAG
STAFF, NOVEMBER 22nd
improvements For Old Trails Ma
tiOnal Highway

Saturday, November 22nd, there
will be a good roads meeting in
Flagstaff which will be attended by
the representative citizens of the
different towns along the Old Trails
Highway between Albuquerque and
Los Angeles. The purpose of this
meeting is to form permanent or
ganiZations in the towns along the
highway to put the Gallup route of
the highway in as good condition as
possible to successfully meet the
competition offered by the Ocean to
Ocean Highway over the Springer
e-Globe-Phoenix route. While we
in the north have been idle on this
important road question, the Cham
Der of Commerce of Globe, Phoenix
and San Diego assisted by certain
interests in Springerville, have put
through enormous appropriations
and are building them good road
through the southern country which
will divert all travel south out of
Springerville, completely cutting us
off the route Of the enormous Coast
to Coast Automobile travel
The automobile traffic through this
country is equal to, if not more bene-
fetal in monetary way to us than
another railroad and it is high time
that we realize it's Importance and
put our roads in condition for the
year-round travel.
r. B. Walton, our efficient Cham
Der of Commerce Secretary, has
been tirelessly working upon this
move for the past two years and de-
serves all the credit for awakening
all the towns along this highway to
their liability of losing this import
ant traffic, and he is responsible for
the calling of this Flagstaff meeting
having made personal trip to all
the interested towns and going be-
fore their commercial clubs and ex-
planning the movement in detail.
Every town will have representatives
in Flagstaff and it is desired that as
many Of our citizens be there as pos
sible, and if something is not done to
better the conditions of the Old
Trail Highway through Northern
Ariz ma, we shall see very few auto
mobile tourists the coming spring,
rs the better road over the southern
route will attract them all.

points as against three for Holbrook.
The team was royalty entertained af-

hurry to get home after their de-

graduate our boys. The final score
