CHARLIE CHAPLIN.

SA1f1NL1L SI1AF LIN.
Mr.. Charlie Chaplin is famous
as clown. He has grotesque
walk which he has sold to millions
of gazers for their money which he
is advertised to have hauled in by
the wagon load. He is funny. I
am free to admit that for clown
and buffoon he is extremely funny.
Left to his own capacity for fun
making and not limited by the
screen and its patrons he might be-
come clever comedian. Of course
one must expect behind all the an
tics Punchinello or Pagliacci.
It is saddening to find that the crea-
ture one laughs at so readily and
who is the court fool of his majesty
the manyheaded demos is off stage
a sad and withal real person. He,
miserable dictu, does not like
Christmas trees. To the modern
Jewish owners and patrons of mo-
vies this will come as a shock
too terrible for words. 1t is how
ever true. One hesitates on the
brink of such a statement. The
publisher of a Jewish paper ought
not needlessly destroy the little
ornaments of his readers lives. He
ought not to speak ill of wealth,
Mrs. Eddy or chambers of COM
merce. Of course he can be held
to account when he goes in for an
iconoclasm that brushes from the
domestic mant1epiece the little lares
of private and home worship as
does this last charge against Mr..
Chaplin. His wife, a Jewess, whose
parents probably never even saw a
Christmas tree, claims with tears
and sobs that Charles sneers at
same. He probably says that they
are German and barbarous Gus
tom and as a loyal Britisher he
oathes and holds them in contempt.
How a Jew with so much money
:an take such a stand passes my
understanding. 1t is not funny, it
S just one of Chap1in's low, slap
tick comedy stunts akin to sling
ng dropsical pies and other vile ex-
libitions of cheap comedy.-The

Professor Einstein, who recent

University, gave his opening lee
ture on October 27 in the forum
of the university on his favorite
theme, the ether and the theory
of relativity.

He was greeted with tremendous
applause by the students.

land disturb Christians" an d
speaks of "the Jewish domina-
ton which is causing so much anxi-
ETY. in the minds of Christians
thruout the world" he is simply in
dulging in some Pecksniffian snive1.
The disturbance and the anxiety
are only in the minds Of the Catho-
lie hierarchy. Britain, France, and
Italy, Christian nations all, have
agreed that Palestine shall become
the Jewish homeland. But even if
they had not, why should not Jews
be allowed to purchase land in
Palestine, and to turn arid wastes
into gardens and farms, as they
have hitherto done? The Catholic
church would rather not have the
Jews do that; would rather have
the Jews engage in pawnbroling
and dealing in secondhand mer-
chandise, as it compelled the Jews
to do in Medieval times when it
had the power. But humanity and
humanitarianism have made some
progress since that time, at least in
some parts of the world; and
students of history know under
what conditions and how.
But the Catholic church, it seems,
remains true to its traditional
policy of enmity to the Jews. It
has lately met with some successes
in Poland and Hungary. Witness
the wholesale massacres of Jews
there. But it forgets that America,
thank God, is not semi-savage, bru-
talized Central Europe. And, be-
fore the church succeeds in making
it so, we Jews, and probably other
elements of the population, too, are
determined to put up a pretty stiff
fight.
We regret that we are compelled
to enter into such controversies.
But we have no choice. We are not
picking any quarrels with anybody.
But we must let Our people know
who Our real enemies still are. Our
people don't always realize it. To
know the enemy is to be fore
warned. To be forewarned is to
be forearmed.
From a speech delivered by
Archbishop Edward J. Hanna of
San Francisco at luncheon of the
Community Service Recreation
League of that city, and quoted in
the San Francisco Examiner, we
clip the following:

Jews are the two most despised or

The states prison at Wethersfield yawns for Louis Lang, erStwhile book keeper for the town of Greenwich; Beau Brurn1nel of Greenwich society; vice president and promoter of the Ocean Leather company: plunger in ''the Street; and hale fellow well met and all OF q. salary of $2,000 per year. Louis is going to prison just as soon as the present term of the Superior court has closed and Sheriff Simeon I'ease makes up his quarterly convoy to escort those who have drawn sen tences.
 Louis Lang, called by New York accountants one of the cleverest bookkeepers and accountants in the east, has ended what should have been a useful career because he would gamble. During the high-tide of money making which ran rampant during the war Lang was holding down his humble job as bookkeeper. His salary. was s2,00O a year. He was a good fellow and in spite of nasty rumors which had followed him to Greenwich from Stamford where he had held similar positions he was we'll received-at least well enough received to get in solid" with the powers that be at Greenwich which control Greenwich Republican poli- ties and they placed him in the posi- ton which led to his ruin.
 Town Treasurer Avery was talk en very i'll. He was absent from his of flee ten months. Louis Lang figured that Avery would never come back and had things his own way. He made use of the opportunity. Then to his, and some other folks surprise the treasurer recovered. He walk ed into his office one day when he was least desired. He "SmeIled a rat - There was an investigation and while the expert accountants were at work. just to show them how good he was, the bookkeeper got away with some more smooth practice, according to statements nf irfo eSted.
 The head of the firm of accountants was astounded that it could be done. Good gracious!" he said. That man is the best accountant in the east. Why, if he was straight we
 But that was just the point. The bookkeeper could not resist the temp tation to gamble on other peoples money. War profits tempted him and he reached out into the stock of the ocean Leather Co. All was smooth sailing until one day he stub- bed his toe.
 Then came the denouement. Book keeper Lang had been riding to work in finel limousine. If friend wife f'bupzzing" some of the elite tC 1uncheons at the clubs. Louis called cab. No walking home to lunch for him.
 By jingo, Louis is flying purty high" said one Greenwich mariner to another.
 Well, guess it's all right" said the other. They tell me that MT. Lans has made his pile out of this here gar"
 Investigation disclosed the fac that Lang was interested in the ocean Leather comr.ny to the exten of $192.000. It aiSo disclosed tn fac. that he was short just $193,O0(

of thet owns money There was consterna ton. Leaders and near leaders hurriedly consulted and in the end Louis Lang made wha- is ment or confession. That was on Jan. II. Yesterday the court gave him credit for the time he has spent in jail.
 But here is the best part of this tale of high finance. Louis wife beat
 band has been in Jail and keeping book- for the stone company she has been drawing $500 per mol eh from the town of Greenwich as subsistence
 money, or $160O more per annum
 than Louis earned when he worked.
 F. c. Luthi of New York, had faith in the Ocean Leather Co. which was exploiting Fish Skin" 1eathr and a
 while back bid s350,000 for Lang s interests in Fish Skin leather stock. The contract was with the town of Greenwich and he is under arrange
 ment to pay the town $io,ooo per month At stated intervals h eis to pay .$2O,OOO in one month. From this sum $500 per month is paid to Mrs. Lang, the balance to be paid to l the town on Lanz's shortage. So ! far the payments have not come reg 1 ularIy and the town has received less | than $50,000.
 | All the powers that be in Green
 wich were pulling for Lanz. He was 1 held in jail until he got into court. His l first attorney, Judge Sowns, died and 1 later Judge Elmore s. Panks of Fair | field, came into the case and brought i it to conclusion.
 There were II counts in the indict-
 ment all of which were nolled with the exception of six or seven. Or ! the first he was sentenced to serve not | less than two nor more than three | years, and on the second not more ! than three years. No minimum was mentioned and Lang may be released

at the end of his first sentence, the two having been named to run con secutively.
 It's just the same old sordid ending of good man gone wrong. Lang, personally, is good fellow. Out at the jail he has friends among the inmates and employees alike. He has been a model prisoner always. But his weakness to the temptation of quick money led to miserable ending and Christmas day is clouded in one home on account of that pro- pensity.
