SEES OLD WORLD
JEWRY IN PERIL
Or. Cyrus Adler, Jewish Repre-
sentative at the Peace Con-
ference, Reviews Eastern
European Situation.
ECONOMIC RUIN COMPLETE
Food, Clothing, Medicines and Other
of Lies Necessities Must Be Pro-
Vlded by America at Once.

New York.-"The Jews who lived In
the zone of war suffered greater hard
ships, sustained greater losses and
have been left in a worse economic
condition than any other people OF
Europe with the possible exception OF
the Armenians. In some of the regions
where the Jews live as many as five
armies marched through, each bear
Ing away with it such property as IT
desired or needed and finally the
Bolshevists In their wave Of power
completed the economic ruin Of the
Jews"
That Is the Jewish situation abroad,
as seen by DR.. Cyrus Adler, of Phila-
delphia, one of the most prominent
Jewish educators in the country, who
was in Europe as a member of the
American Jewish delegation to the
Peace Conference. He believes that
there must be a great deal of economic
rehabilitation among his people be-
fore they can begin to enjoy the new
rights Of religious, political and legal
equality won for them at Versailles.
"East European Jewry will oon be
IN a position to help itself, due to the
results of the Peace Conference
states DR.. Adler, "but in the critical
period that 1t is passing through nov
as a result of the European economic
and political u%pheaval, it must receive
aid from this country. Food, clothing
medicines-these are the fundamental
needs hat come before anything else
FOOD must be hurried to the Euro
pean Jews. / have seen bread tina
these people were eating, when the.
could get it, hat lookd more like
dung cake than like food. 1t wa

for filler.
Another great need is for the facili
ating of individual remittances. Il
many regions no communications hav
been possible for five years and ia
theirs, mothers, brothers and sister
have lost all track of their relatives /

'In view of all this situation, th
coming Jewish relief campaign is

lars worth of support that Americ
can give to it. Withholding of aid b

SOCIETY EVENING
 AT TUTWILER TONIGHT

Society evening" tonight at the Tut wiler will be real novelty, and one which will be enjoyed by a number of those who appreciate good music and an old-fashioned Beef Steak Dinner"
 It is an acknowledged fact that no people is the world have truer sense and appreciation of music than the ne- groes, and in Birmingham and Six teenth Street Baptist choir, under the direction of pr. A. c. Williams, pastor of the church, which will be the fea- ture at the Tutwiler this evening, has achieved a reputation which is quite enviable.
 At many of the largest conventions and meetings held in Birmingham dur ing the past few years this choir has been invited to assist in the musical programme and celebrities from all over the country have pronounced it one of the very best choirs they have ever heard
 For Society Evening" this evening. the Sixteenth Street Baptist Choir has selected some very fine music for rem dition and pr. Williams, the pastor, will present his singers at their very best.
 This is the second appearance of the choir at the Tutwiler, the initial pro- gramme drawing such tremendous crowds that the management has been importuned to present them again and so this evening they will, in addition to Wiegand's Orchestral furnish the music. during the dinner de luxe.

some other woman who was trying to take her husband away from her.
 She who steals my husband steals Trash" I quoted her in Helen Row lands brilliant epigrammatic style. 'No other kind CAN be stolen."
 Isn't it a pity that women can't take this philosophic view of husbands that can't be trusted out of sight?
 We hear very frequently of this woman and that woman, taking some other woman's husband-as if any woman's husband worth stealing could be diverted for one moment by a woman not above stooping to such a diversion?
 But then we are always meeting un- happy wives who are eating their hearts out with jealousy toward some woman of whom they THINK they have cause to be afraid
 Isn't it the Christian Scientists who believe that fear can crystalize into definite reality, tangible something that may become the menace towarS which we are full of dread?
 If this be true then the wife who lets a rival establish herself in her thoughts who acknowledges her husband is not worthy of trust and confidence is in fair way to lose him-lose him not necessarily to the dreaded rival
 Men aren't always inspired when it comes to matters of the heart, but they have curious idea of NOT caring

 Laura Jean Libbey may write unty her good right hand drops her impas. stoned pen--yet some of us will always believe in our old fashioned hearts that REAL LOVE is LOvE-FOREVER MORE-and that the average, decent, respectable man seldom grows tired of his own wife, and if he does-and he is a man worth while. you may be precious sure his affection doesn't turn to some woman who is out on a "still hunt for an AFFINITY.
 The wise wife knows that it is only when hee husband manifests a genuine interest in some woman who isn't in the least interested in him that she has even the ghost of a show of a rival.
 Even then she has no cause for fear. for the only kind of woman who could inspire a GREAT love in husband who belongs to another, is always far above stooping to play any such ugly game.
 "She who Steals My Husband Steals Trash--if he's the Kind that can be Stolen" and IF he's that kind-Life WITHOUT him is not going to be very much more of tragedy-than Life WITH him.

 If you've got troubles of this kind like the woman who was relating them the other day. just recall Pretty Kitty Gordon's song:

 To thy northern vale where floweth

 Keep us worthy God in Heaven
 Of this goodly land of Thine.
 Hearts are open as our doorways,
 Liberal hands and spirits free,

 We will aye be true to thee!
 Little, little can I give thee,

 But that little hand, brain, spirit All I have and am are thine;
 Take, oh take, the gift is given,
 Take and serve myself with me,

 l1 F Miss Virginia B. Handley could
 have seen the crowded house
 which greeted the actors in the vaudeville" given by the Junior Music Club Tuesday evening. she would in- deed have been very happy. Miss Hor- tense Estes, as leader of the club, and Miss Josephine Haylow, the president, are working hard to make the Junior Music Study Club one of the largest and best of it's kind in the country. And indeed one would say they had com pleted their task because the spicy vaudeville Tuesday evening proved that any future undertaking of the Junior Music study Club under their supervision, means success.
 Had it not been for the splendid CO., operation of the various schools of the city, this success could not have been accomplished The High School Or chestra under the direction of Miss Leta Kitts furnished several delightful num- bers. Miss Kitts is always extremely interested where younger people are concerned and has never failed to help the Junior Club in anything they call on her 70 do. The jazz numbers, con- sisting of an Egyptian and Chinece song and dance, were good, as also were James Smiley and his American Beauties as "Sweeties." One. of the decided hits of the evenig was Aimee Fox and Mila Shropshire dancing the shimmy and the shfmmy and jazz, as MT. and Mrs Castle. Another hit was little Flo Fox singing Pm Forever Blowing Bubbles" The musical acts, ~Central High con the Beach") and ~Rosalie Chansonette" by Bnsley High School, were specially enjoyed. Gold stein and Fortner in their eccentric stunts on the violin, furnished some snappy music. Morris Moughon and his company as MT. and Mrs. Spaghetti

 If you can't be as happy as you'd like to be. just be as happy as you can"
 This song bore a glad refrain to that class of people who suffer from what is called "The Blues" q call such a state of being just plain bored to death")
 Any way, Kitty Gordon's song really gave out some very good advice.
 Of course every single, blessed one of us has his high hopes" pointed to- ward one of those gloriously delectable days when we'll be just as, happy as we'd like to be, but the chances are even at the High Tide of Happiness" few of us would realize the state of our beatitude for we'd probably be incoming" and signing" over the swiftness of the moving moments which would be taking our happiness from us.
 And why not? We are all perfectly human Cat least most of us) and we keep repeating the tru-ism that
 Man never is but Always--to be blestt'
 And yet, these very attitudes of mind and heart-these jet black splashes in our lives. make us value more than ever the rose-colored moments of hap piness when they do come around.
 Kitty Gordon's song is full of good old "knit-to- fit" philosophy. Wouldn't we be pores" (most of us) if went continuously through life sing ing at the tiptop of our voices with joy and gladness? Rather like Blen Glasgow's heroine we are more attrac- tive when addicted to Spells of Joy"

 There's always an undercurrent i'll such voices, that can be read.
 Most people think that they deserve to be happy.
 It's precious seldom that they ana1yze what they've given to life that might be given back to, them, transmitted into the fine gold of happiness.
 Another curious thing is the common acceptance of the word Happiness"
 Happiness very seldom means wild spurts of joy and gaiety. Rather 1t seems to some of us that it is the deep peace that passeth understanding'-a contentment with the passing hour-a crystallized philosophy that helps us to accept each days shade and sun light. as the balance to perfect pie ture-the little string of moving pie ture days that we pass through and call--LIFE.
 All of which reminds me of a woman I heard complaining the other day of
