Cooperation Among Creamery Men
Successful organization of county
associations by cooperative cream
cries in a few OF the counties of the
state suggests to A. J.. Mcclure Of
the agricultural extension division,
University Farm, the advisability Of
extending the movement to all coun-
ties that have goodly number Of
such creameries. There is an aver
age Of more than seven cooperative
creameries for every county in Min
nesota. Mr.. Mcclure says:
There is need for cooperative
creameries to organize for greater de-
velopment. County associations
could probably do the most to enable
creameries to help one another. OFF,
GERS and buttermakers Of all the
creameries in a county would get to-
gether once or twice a year to con-
slider the problems of creamery man
agement and to exchange views and
experiences. All this would be help
full.
.eIn 1918 the average price paid for
butter fat by the cooperative cream
cries Of this state was 1896 cents a
pound. The centralized creameries
Of the state paid an average price of
1884 cents. This difference in price
shows why cooperative creameries
should unite to develop their busi-
ness. Should they fail to survive 1t
would mean loss Of millions of
dollars a year to the farmers of Min
.nesota.' -

FAITH AND OPTIMISM.

We Jews have given the world some pro-
found thinkers and philosophers. Philo, Ibn
Gebirol, Mainmonides, Crecas, Spinoza,
Mendelssohn, Bergson are bright stars in
the armament of philosphic speculation and
they are all our own, bone of our bone, and
flesh of our flesh. And yet we Jews have
had no philosophy of our own. Jewish cul-
ture has been rich in all elements except
philosophy, in which culture of an an
cient Greeks and Hindus excelled. The Jew.
ish mind was not given to fne-spun specula-
tions. 1t often studied the PHILOSOPHERS of
other nations, assimilated them and tried to
reconcile them with its own religious world
conception and it's own doctrines. But the
Jew preferred his rock-based faith to the
quicksands, depths, and shadows of meta
physical subtleties.
There is something about the Jewish
faith that precludes all speculation. The first
chapter of his religious textbooks, the BIZ
BILE starts out with the idea that the God
created world is good, very good. His legisla-
ton supplies him with all the rules of con-

THE JEWISH CONSCIOUSNESS OF
OUR WOMEN.

The various Jewish Womens organiza-
tions, Sisterhoods, Auxiliaries, and Council
Sections, from time to time consider and ad-
vocate various remedial measures to stimu-
late and rouse the Jewish consciousness of
the women, to elevate the Jewish woman to
her high estate as high priestess at the fam.
lily altar, and to re-awaken the religious
spirit in the home
Paradoxical as it may sound, in these lat
ter days, when especially among the Reform
Jews, the maintenance of religion is largely
dependent upon the women at the houses
of worship, she has ceased to function as
that religious center in the home about
whom all the sweet memories of sacred and
hallowed sabbaths and holidays cluster. The
reverential attitude which was accorded her
by the family is no longer given her. The
woman of the past was frequently judged
by present day standards, un-educated-
possibly even illiterate-yet she radiated
such an atmosphere of simple piety and
thorough devotion to her family, the COM
munal claims and her faith, that she inspir.
ed the same feeling in those about her. Her
Jewshness was her pride. She rejoiced at
the victories her forefathers had won, and
grieved over their defeats. They were real
and vivid to her. Whatever was connected
with the history or religion of her people
was part of her life, for it was Jewish, and
her pride and joy was her Jewishness.
But times have changed. The Jewish

experience of the race and the inspired wis.
dom of its intellectual leaders. And all the
doctrines and laws of the sacred book are
considered God-given, the last word of
truth. Given such faith-faith in good

ordained law-and what need is there for
further philosophizing?
Speculation makes dreamers, pessimists,
restless, discontinued beings. The Jews op-
timistic faith has made of him a wise, prac-
tical man, man of the world, man who
can adapt himself to all conditions and cir
cumstances. 1t has given him fortitude and
hope. That very largely accounts for his
survival, while other peoples, greater and
mightier than his have been submerged
and swept away by the tides of time. That
also explains the remarkable historical phe-
nomenon that in less than hundred years
since his release from his ghetto-dungeon
he has advanced to the front rank and lead
ership in every sphere of achievement, not
only in industry and commerce, but in
science and statecraft, in letters and learn
ing. His intellectual force that often
evokes the admiration of the world is not a
matter of race endowment and blood, but
purely the result of his three thousand
years old faith and ptimism.-American

THE PRESENT DUTY OF OUR JEWRY.

Felix M. Warburg, the head of the Joint
Distribution Committee, returned from Eu-
rope last week accompanied by his brother,
Paul M. Warburg former vice-govenor of
the Federal Reserve Board. The latter on
arriving here gave out statement in which
he said that Europe relies on America in
her present hour of stress. His words bore
a general, as opposed to specific Jewish
significance, yet we propose to make them
the staple of these remarks. We do this es-
