THE MEMORIAL SOCIETY.

It is pleasing to note that the
"get-together" of the Menorah So
ciety of the University of Mime
sofa last Saturday was SO success
full in every way. In the first place
it is pleasing to note that the Jew
ish activities of the students are
taken SO seriously by the young
people on the campus Also it is
gratifying to learn Of the growth in
the number of Jewish students at
the University. Not least pleasing
is the fact that a Menorah "func-
ton can be successful EVEN if
not given on Friday evening. Not
to enter here into the discussion of
the appropriateness of holding en-
tertainments on the Sabbath, it is
a fact that for the last few years the
Menorah has been a chief offender
in this regard. To the remon-
>strances made the answer always
was that students could not be got
ten to attend any campus affair on
Saturday evening. We hope that
last Saturdays reunion will be a
revelation to the students and to
their friends in the community that

HALLOWEEN.

Halloween, the eve of Al1-Saints
Day, a Christian holiday with
thick veneer of pagan influences, is
naturally most appropriate occa-
sion for good Jews to make merry,
and in many instances probably to
go to further extremes in it's obser-
vance than many of the worship
pers of the Saints. We realize that
masquerading, the playing of
FRANKS and the prominence given to
all the other highly intelligent Gus
toms associated with the day need
not bespeak very highly developed
religious feeling.
But why Jewish young folks, who
at best are not too burdened with
the cares and the duties of their re-
ligion, and therefore cannot plead
the need of additional recreation,
seek out pagan holidays when they
have SO many beautiful ones of their
own, perhaps languishing from ne
glect, is beyond our understanding.
Chanukah, Purim, the Fifteenth Of
Sh'bat, Lag Bonner, not to men
ton the important festivals, surely
can give enough scope for even the
most sociable and fun-1oving peo-
pie. Why not make these the oc-
casion of fun and ce1ebration.-C. D.

be, raked in the .slaekels, and has
departed for other communities
equally gullible. We have in our
possession a book called "A Mis-
sionary's Return to Judaism" by
Samuel Frender, which tells the
story OF. the authors own life. It
is in many respects most remark
able book, and should be in every
library and in every Jewish home.
One chapter Of this book is on "A
self-styled ex-Rabbi," and its intro
ductory paragraph reads as follows:
"On account of his being an excep-
tionally bad case of fraudulent and
pernicious missionary activity, [
must make an exception in one case,
and mention the name of the mis-
sionary of whom this chapter is to
treat" That name is no other than
''the converted ex-Rabbi Leopold
Conn.," as that missionary styles
himself. We are to1d-and the au-
thor knows whereof he speaks-that
he is neither converted, nor an ex-
rabbi; nor even Cohn, that in his
former home, the town Of Apsicza
County of Maramos-Sziget, Hun
gary, he had another name, and his
occupation was that of an inn-keep-
er. Passages from stenographic
court reports are given of trials in
which "ex-Rabbi Leopold Cohn"
has figured either as plaintiff or de-
PENDANT, which show what kind of
a "bird" the ex-rabbi is. The most
interesting part of it all is, that the
"ex-rabbi" with the help of his wor-
thy son, Rev. Joseph Cohn, who is
travelling all over the country ap-
pealing in the churches for aid in
behalf of his fathers mission, has
accumulated snug little fortune,
as the court testimony shows, and
that the flow of money still con-
tinues. And what do the church,
and the good Christians get in re-
turn for it all? Well, you must read
Samuel Freuder's book and find out
for yourself.

should say that Rabbi Franklin's
flock, who are Of the reform wing of
Judaism, have also broken with
Jewish tradition and practice? The
only concession we should have
made to the church would have been
that it carry on its propaganda only
among Jew-Christian Scientists.
The work would not be very ardu-
Gus, and the church could easily as
stimulate the number without suf-
fering Indigestion.

His description of the goods is writ
