A blind musician CD wandered
up the line from Woodward last
week and entertained CD the peo-
pie of Beaver for the greater part
of the day Saturday with his "fid-
die" and song. He wrabled ev-
erything from THE Holy City" to
Turkey in the Straw"
and the range of his instrumental
CD numbers was boundless. He
held forth in front of the l.. G. b.
Drug Store and. we understand, was
an early day acquaintance of .. III.
Cafky. at Elk City. On account of
this "old friendship" Mayor Long
was perhaps able to secure this
special attraction for the entertain
ment of the persons of his establish
ment and the public in general.

Andy Crabtree, wlo was here
looking after business matters. re-
turned to his new home az Win
field, Kansas, last week. He was
accompanied by Herbert Smith. In
stopping over enroute Andy and
Herbert spent the night at a hotel.
The room was close and warm so
they left the door open after they
had retired and, being good honest
folk themselves. didn't take the
precaution to remove their money
from their trousers pocket. Some
other individual. or individuals.
however, were more cautious and
removed 1t during the night, get
ting some $1,000 or $500 from
each. They left the trousers. That
helped some.

RABBIS AND WINE.

Some Of the editorial sages of our
contemporaries are unduly exercised
over the privilege conferred upon rab-
bis to act as. dispensers of fermented
grape-juice for religious purposes
such as Kiddush and the Passover
cups.
They are worried over the prospect
of possible abuse by some unscrupu-
lous or careless shepherds. They
would have the government abolish
the privilege altogether, and they cite
the authority Of the scholarly dean
of Reform Judaism, DR.. K. Kohler,
who has rendered an opinion that
unfermented grape-juice is just as
Kosher for all religious celebrations
as real wine.
The trouble with some Of our wor-
thy Colleagues is that they would be
even more Catholic than the Pope Of
Rome, or would out-Herod Herod.
They would be more prohibitive than
the Prohibitionists. We can trust our
fellow-Jews to be as law-abiding as
the rest of the population. We can
trust the rabbis not to abuse the pow
err vested in them. And should one
so forget himself and the dignity Of
his office as to lapse into careless
or illegitimate use of his privilege, we
shall not shield him from co1ldign
punishment But let us not deprive
our people of that which the law al
lows them.

PASSOVER.

The preservation and persistence of
the Jews during the 10 centuries of re-
lentless persecution is no miracle or
mystery when we consider the hope
and faith that the annual Passover
celebration ever kindled in their souls.
Every year this gladstone RI season
brought them the divine message Of
freedom. Every year the divine promise
Of redemption was repeated. Every
year, in true exultation of spirit, they
sang the praises of God, the Deliverer,
and rehearsed the story of the mira
cles performed by Ellis mighty hand
and out-stretched arms" to humble the
oppressor and set the oppressed free.
Every year they looked forward to
the appearance of the welcome guest.
Elijah, right in the midst of the Pass
over celebration, who would bring the
tidings of a final restoration. And
when Elijah did not appear, they still
repeated with superb confidence and
trust: Next year we shall be free
men,"
Such hope and faith make people
imperishable. From such source
Israel has drawn it's life immortal.
And while this source of inspiration
remains with us, Israels prospects re-
NAMED undimmed. Next year may
not only we but the whole world be
free!

The Cape Province in South Africa

court would have one or more Jewish
justices. Why not, considering that
for 1900 years all brainy Jews have
been specializing in the law, common
~ known as the Torah?
Recently, while discussing Mr..
Morgenthau's report on the condf-

mended him, as a wel1-qualified can

read our recommendation, or by
means of his mental telepathic pow

stole a march on Poland and APP
pointed him u. S. Ambassador to the

in any office except that of investi-
gator of Jewish conditions.

HOSPITAL ANNEX
NEED DISCUSSED
Association at Meeting
Reviews Work That
Has Been Done

The members of the Hospital as
ISOLATION gathered Tuesday afternoon
with Mrs. &C. Hawkins at her home
on College street, and while the at
tendance was small, owing to sickness
and absence of few of the members
a sufficient number was present 20
make it an enthusiastic and uplifting
one. The business of the afternoon
was dispatched in the usual method,
and a number of discussions were
held. One in particular came before
the board, the urgent necessity of
an annex to the hospital building
During the past year number of pa
tients have been turned away from
the institution because of lack of
room, and the members realize that
great physical good can be accom-
plished in future by having this need
ed annex. 1t is hoped that some good
people of the town will come to the
aid of the association and provide a
portion of the means for this nee
essary building.
Recently the young members of
the Episcopal church have placed a
bed for children at the hospital, and
this is an addition greatly needed by
the institution and number of chill
dren have enjoyed the benefits of the
small bed. A vote of thanks was CIV
en- the auxiliary for their kindness
in placing this bed, and a splendid
feature of it is that the young wom-
en- will attend to the upkeep of this
bed in future.
A new roof has been placed on the
building this summer, and this has
depleted the funds in the treasury to
some extent. These necessary items
being attended to causes halt in the
work that is planned for the better
ment of the hospital, and the men,
bers hope that the friends of the in
stitution will come to the rescue to
prevent mourning an Indebtedness,
which the association always has
fought.
4 very god friend of the hospita
sent in a check for $25 recently
which has been placed on the books
with grateful hearts by the members.
These checks come when most need
ed, it SENS, and great good is done
through the means of such donations.
At present there are several char
ity patients in the ward, and every
thing that can be done is given for
their comfort and pleasure. 1t is for
the benefit of these people who re-
ceive help that the association sollc-
its aid from the public. In the era of
campaigning through which Americas
has passed in the past year, the
