the B'Nai Birth with its present mot
to: "Benevolence, Brotherly Love and
Harmony" with the object Of bring
ing the Jews of America closer to-
gether in purpose and endeavor and
for their mutual uplift and protec-
ton. How well it has served its pur-
pose in America can best be illus
trated by its accomplishments and
lines of activities for the past seventy
five years and more particularly its
more recent development and expan-
sion.
From it,, humble beginning with
twelve inspired men, the B'nai Birth
has today eleven district Grand
Lodges, four hundred and twenty-five
local lodges with a total membership
of nearly fifty thousand loyal Sons Of
the Covenant. In relative comparison
has it also developed in Importance as
factor in all Jewish affairs through
out the world.
The name of our Order was most
advisedly chosen, as it seems to in
clude the very idea Of its creation.
Truly the covenant of Abraham has
been fiittingly assumed by the B'nai
Birth and the Sons of the Covenant
will even carry out Abraham's obi
cations to God in return for His d.
vine blessing and guidance. That
charge, that responsibility, which our
Order has cherished as its inheritance,
is contained in the two worrs, "Yehe
Berocho," which properly translated
means "Be thou blessing" To bear
the message of God, of Judaism, of
Benevolence, Brotherly Love and Har-
mony, Of Service to and for Human
ity. That is the true charge of the
B'nai Birth to its members that they
should ever bear in mind.
In the discharge of this sacred her
itage the B'nai Birth has broadened
its scope and enlarged its field of ac-
Invites until it has brought itself to
be recognized, in international as
well as national affairs, as the repre-
sentative Of the jewish people where
in their civil or political rights are in
volved. In line with its policy Of car
ing for the Jew and his interests un-
der every and all conditions, the B'nai
Birth maintains vast network Of
charitable and educational institutions
throughout the United States, includ-
ing: The Home for the Aged and In
firm at Yonkers, N. Y; The Maimon-
ides Library in New York; Cleveland
adelphia; Covenant Hall at st. Fran
Orphan Asylum, Foster Home in Phil
cisco; National Jewish Hospital for
Consumptives at Denver, Colo; At
lanta Hebrew Orphan Asylum; B'nai
Birth Orphanage and Home for
Friendless at Erie, Pa; Jewish Wild
ows' and Orphans Home, New Or
leans; Tulane Infirmary at New Or
leans; Chicago; Manual Training
School; Leo N. Levi Memorial Hos
pital at Hot Springs, and numerous
Free Loan Societies throughout the
United States In doing this philan-
thropic work it is more and more en-
deavoring to get away from the old
idea Of "Charity" and assuming to do
simple Justice" to those unfortu-
mates who have been dealt with un-
kindly by fate, in order to make them
more helpful to themselves and more
useful to mankind.

ADDRESS DELIVERED AT CELE-
BRATION OF THE GOTH AN
NIVERSARY OF MEMPHIS
LODGE, /. o. B. B.
BY Brother Second Vice President, A.
B. Fryer, Shreveport, La.

the B'Nai Birth, Visiting Ladies
and Gentlemen:
| am most happy indeed to be with
you on this occasion, the celebration
Of the sixtieth anniversary of Mem
phis Lodge No. 35, the oldest Lodge
in District No. 7, and ! appreciate full
ly the honor accorded me by your in
vitation to be with you at this time.
I only trust that my message may
convey to you some suggestion of my
earnestness of feeling and sincerity
of purpose in the small part oppor-
tunity has permitted me to play in the
great work accomplished under the
banner of IsraePs foremost represent
atives.
First let me convey to you the most
cordial and sincere fraternal greet
ings from your sister state of Louisi-
ana, and the domicile of our District
No. THE City of New Orleans.
While we realize the distance seperat-
ing us from the Mother Lodge of our
District, we feel the stimulation of her
noble example and realize full we'll the
celebration of the sixtieth anniversary
Of her organization is an event which
should stand out prominently in the
history of our order.
My friends, the past few years can
truly be described as "Times that try
mems souls" For two and half
years we were anxious witnesses to
the titanic struggles which shook the
very foundation of the worlds civil
ization; for year and a half follow
ing we were component part of and
determining factor in the greatest
war of all history; forsthe past year
we have been the moving influence
in an effort to establish a lasting
world peace. For over four years
the world exerted its every effort in
the destruction of human lives and
priceless works Of art; all science and
every human energy were dedicated to
the struggle between German Kul-
ture" and the freedom of civilization.
How terrible, how horrible, it all was.
But the God Of Righteousness con-
quered the Fright of Might" the
light Of Truth and Honor overcame the
shadow Of the Hun, which so darkly
overhung civilization, and Democracy
was indicated before the world.
Therefore it is indeed fitting that we
turn aside from this awful picture and
render joyous thanks in celebration Of
the sixtieth anniversary Of a Lodge in
an Order which, for seventy-fve years
past, has given to the world just such
ideals as have guided our illustrious
and beloved President in his almost
Divine leadership Of the civilized ma
tions.
In this hour of celebration let US
turn our eyes back in retrospection for
q moment to view the illustrious past
Of our order, that we may better ap-
preciate and realize our wonderful OPP
portunities and heavy obligations for
the future.
Strange as 1t may sound, this be-
loved Order Of ours, breathing its
breath Of Benevolence, Brotherly Love
and Harmony throughout the world,
was born in the breasts Of twelve men
who had found the autocracy Of Ger
many inconsistent with their Jewish
ideals and had emigrated to the

Yank Crew Ready For
Boat Race Down Seine
By Associated Press.

Paris, April s. - The American
crew which is to compete in the
French interallied eight-oared race
on April 2S will be made up of some
of the best known oarsmen of Amer
lean universities, the captain being
G. d. Wiman, artillery, Yale varsity,
1915. Captain Wiman asked that,
inasmuch as merely elimination
trials are being held at present and
as therefore the crew which will ap-
pear in the big event has not yet
been picked, the names of the oars
men be withheld until a final selec.
ton has been made.
The race will be over a course of
$500 meters down the Seine, start
ing at the Pont Royal and finishing
at Pone De L'Alma, and passing un-
der four bridges, including the fa-
nous Alexander III bridge.
The obstacles of the race will
make it more spectacular. the space
under the arches of the bridges per-
mitting only two crews to pass un-
der an arch at the same time. The
Pont Royal, having only three
arches, the coXswains will have to
do some clever jockeying and maneu-
vering and a lively sprint can be
looked for at the takeoff.
The crews will use off-center slid
ing seat lapstreak barges, with Bel
gian tholes. The boats are some
what heavier than those to which
American and ENGLISH rowing men
are accustomed.

BUFFALO AT EASTON

During the last week plans have
been perfected for the LAFAYETTE
baseball team to practice with the
Buffalo team of the International
League, beginning April 20. From
that time until May ! the two teams
will work together on March Field.
This arrangement was perfected by
Coach George Wiltse, of the Lafay-
cite team, who is also manager of
the Buffalo club. Mr.. Wiltse got the
consent of the college authorities
and submitted the proposition to
President Lannin, who approved it.
The Buffalo club in past years has
spent its preliminary training season
in Newark or Jersey City. Because
of this arrangement, Coach Wiltse
will be able to stay with the La
fayette team until May /, instead
of leaving in the middle of April, as
would have been necessary with
out this arrangement. The Maroon
and White baseball aggregation will
also have the benefit of individual
coaching by professional players in
their own positions.

BOXING ON THURSDAY

The management of the Motive
Power A. A. could not have planned
a better attraction at this time than
bout which includes Allentown
Dundee, the hard-hitting Dutchman
who electrified the fans several
weeks ago with his tactics. The
man picked to meet this tough lad
is Tommy Carey, and he is so popu-
lar here that the arena will more
than likely make him the favorite.
although Dundee always puts up a
fight which satisfies. Carey is be-
ing boosted right and left and many
are willing to make a wager that he
will put it all over Dundee.
Another encounter which should
be a real thriller is that arranged
for Nate Isaacman and Bobby Will
liams. The latter was to appear at
the last Motive Power show and dis
appointed the spectators greatly by
not showing up. But hfis manager
Charley Ettinger, explains that he
was suffering from a nasty cut re-
ceived in boxing and was in no
shape to fight. Isaacman is so slew
,er at the game that he rarely gets
an opponet who can make things
interesting. Willitms will have the
chance.
Young Fulton, who abe fans know
from his bouts with Max William
son is clever little fellow will be
on deck to meet Dick Gotwalt.
Hughey Dugan is a newcomer in
Harrisburg but after the fans once
see him go. they will be anxious to
see him again. He is a boy that
battles from bell to bell.
Tom Carey has won a number of
bouts, Joe Philips being among his
recent victims. He was outfought
by Benny Leonard and Britton, but
put up creditable bouts. Carey is
no youngster in the game and has
participated in nearly one hundred
bouts. 1t is dollars to doughnuts he
will hit Dundee hard and often.
