Initial Sermon Delivered by
Rabbi Macht of Waco

DR.. Wolfe Macht, the newly chos-
en- rabbi of Temple Rodef Sholem, was
installed recently, with the usual GER
emonials accompanying such an event.
DR.. Macht succeeds DR.. Warsaw as
rabbi of the local temple, and has
already entered upon his duties with
energy that bespeaks unbounded sue
cess for his efforts.
The installation address was de-
livered by DR.. George Fox OF Fort
Worth, and the usual program was
particularly attractive. This event
was the occasion for DR.. Macht's in
itial sermon. The subject of this ad-
dress was Israel and the Nation"
and was discussed in a manner that
brought out many points hitherto
somewhat obscured. DR.. Macht made
a very favorable impression at this
time, and received many congratula-
tions.
DIR. Machts Sermon.
DIR. Macht's sermon is printed be-
low:
ITO all men who live nobly come
moments of great illumination. The
history of great men offers many ex-
amples. Prophet jeremiah experienced
sucha moment. So compelling was
the thought which had come to him
after many anxieties concerning the
call he had received to divine leader
shin that It was henceforth the NOV
inp power of his life. Now it was clear
TO him that his task was that OF des-
troying and building up again.
Jeremiah was confronted with
difficult task. Men love to cling to the
traditional; they want to be allowed
10 20 on doing that to which they have
become accustomed. Indeed the young
preacher is often warned not to stir
up feelings; not provoke thought; in
fact is urged to leave men alone.
Jeremiah knew all this. But he had
been inspired by the spirit of true
leadership. Before the great and fes-
tive assemblies, jeremiah appeared to
rebuke men for their pagan concep-
ton Of God. he held up before them
the moekery Of the sacrificial cult.
They had no conception of the NOR
n relation between man and God. Jer-
emiah felt called upon Erst to destroy
their idolatrous mode Of worship so
that he might afterwards teach them
70 know the nobler understanding OF
right religious duty. He must first dis
illusion them Of the pagan beliefs;
that he would proceed to speak OF q
God which delights in right living and
honest dealing. The prophet suffered
untold agonies Of body and mind. The
people did not understand him. But
touched by the true spirit OF divine
leadership he could not disobey the
inward promptings Of his being h'
was oblivious to all difficulties. HI
remained true to his calling.
Sacred Compact Unbroken.

history, Israel caught a glimpse OF

SELECT YOUR EGGS FOR
MATCHING CAREFULLY
Expert Gives Rules to Guide N the
Selection, Both as to COloring
and Size

One of the most important items
in poultry production Is the careful
selection of eggs for Matching accord
ing to j. w. Sanborn, extension poul-
try husbandman of the Utah Agri-
cultural College. Mr.. Sanborn has
drawn up the following suggestions
regarding egg selection for the ben
eft of poultry production.
Set only good sized eggs uniform
in size
Set only good colored eggs uniform
in color.
Eggs weighing less than two oun-
ces should not be used for Matching.
Larger eggs hatch larger chicks.
Larger chicks grow faster than the
smaller, they are marketable a.
broilers earlier, they mature young
er and they begin laying sooner.
These facts apply to all breeds.
The comparisons are made between
small and large chicks in the same
breed. Careful selection of eggs for
Matching pays. Don't neglect It,
