NEW YEAR FESTIVAL CELE.
DRAFTED BY JEWS.

Notices prepared by The Tract Com
mission, Central Conference Of Am
erican Rabbis, Union Of American
Hebrew Congregational
On Monday September the
thirteenth, the festival of the
New Year (Rosh Hashhana) will
be observed by the Jews of the
entire world. Like all the other
Jewish holy days, the festival
commences at sunset on the pre-
ceding day. Orthodox Jews OBJ
serve two days, whereas Reform
Jews keep only one day.
The festival of the New Year
is one of the most important in
the whole Jewish calendar. It is
the first of a series of holidays
lasting nearly a month. 1t is like
wise the beginning of the Jewish
year and one of its principal fea-
lures is the blowing of the Sho-
far or rams horn.
Apart from its joyful and fes-
tive nature, Rosh Hashanah is
rich in moral import and signifi-
canoe, The fact that it is the be-
ginning of the New Year lends it
special sacredness. 1t is the time
of higher resolves, the turning
point of the year. 1t is the day
which brings home to the Jew
with great force the lesson that
the time is short and the work is
great, and that, as each year
rolls quickly by, the task must
be accomplished within a short
er period. The festival is a gen.
tie reminder of the brevity of
human existence, but It optimis-
tically stresses the doctrine that
man, far from being a plaything
in the hands of fate, can realize
his life's work if he but takes
advantage of the swiftly fleet
ing moments.

lSn educatl0n. VI course, those
who knew him, felt that a COL
lege education could not improve
his brilliant mind nor add to his
cultural attachments.
He gradually made his way
upward as a force in American
Israel. Those who are acquaint,
ed with the inner working of
American Jewry know how diff
cult this is. Yet starting with his
activities as a member of the Re-
form Congregation of Provi-
dence, he gradually gained the
ear of Eastern Jewry, which rec
ognized his great ability, and he
eventually became vice-president
of the Union of American He
brew Congregation, the organi-
cation which supports the He
brew Union College, and a mem
Der of the American Jewish COM
mittee. When the war came on,
ne gradually took on the leader
ship in the organization of the
Jewish Welfare Board, of which
he later became chairman, to
which he dedicated his best eff
forts and which probably
brought about his death because
of the tremendous amount of
work he did for it. Col. Cutler
told the writer two years ago
that the doctors had forbidden
him to work so hard, and if he
did not stop, it would kill him. 1t
was sometime after this that he
suffered a stroke of paralysis.
1t was in his capacity as Secre-
tary of the Soldiers and Sailors
Welfare League of the B'nai
Birth, that the writer came into
intimate contact with Colonel
Cutler. Up to the time of the or
ganization of the League, no def
initely organized agency had
been doing soldier work. The
League organized a dozen camps,
and then the Jewish Welfare
Board came on the scene. The
Eastern bodies sponsored tat,
tempting to disregard the
League. The attempt was not
successful, until Col. Cutler got
the ear of Secretary Baker, and
persuaded him that only an or
ganization of all the Jewish bod
les was capable of carrying on
the work of properly taking care
of the Jewish soldiers. Baker
was made to see the point of
view of Col. Cutler, in spite of a
promise to the fraternal bodies
of the country, that they too.

COL. HARRY CUTLER.

brings the news that colonel
Harry Cutler is dead. No par
ticulars are stated, but since the
Colonel recently suffered a
stroke of paralysis, it is assum-
ed that he died from the same
cause. Col. Cutler had gone to
Europe on a mission from the
War Department, to locate the
graves of the Jewish boys who
fell in the late war, and to mark
them with Mogen David. Need
less to say that American Ju-
daism mourns the loss of this
worker-he was only about for
ty-fve when he died.
Harry Cutler was a remark
able character-and when we
say remarkable, we do not mean
that he was fautless. He was
perhaps, the finest type of the
Russian Jewish emigrant, who
coming to these free shores finds
not only that freedom for which
he yearned, but finds with it
wealth, fame and station.
Arriving in America a youth
of seventeen, Cutler went to
work in a New England mill. He
received the magnificent salary
of six dollars per week, and saw
ed money at that. He often used
to tell how he struggled in those
early days-for he had not only
himself to support but his peo-
pie in Russia. He worked hard,
but he had an ambition when he
left Europe-and he never lost
sight of it. He had a hope that
the day would come, when he
would have a part in freeing his
people-and if he did not succeed
in this, he contributed as much
as any living man towards their
welfare.
Cutler was one of the real big
Jews of America-and the
world. He had a superlatively
fine mind; he was ambitious
and he was tactful. Although
coming at an age when it is diff
ficult to rid oneself of a foreign
accent, he spoke English perfect
ly-and had a splendid style. He
once told us that all the English
schooling he received was at
night, and by reading, and that
the greatest regret of his life,
The Jewish monitor. (Fort Worth-Dallas, Tex.) 191?-1921, 1920-09-03

was definitely organized. The
League however, held aloof, and
Cutler proposed that the writer
go to Providence with him, out
line a plan, and see whether COM
plete harmony could not be had.
1t was during a discussion of this
matter that Cutler told the writ
er that "he is a traitor to Amer.
lean Jewry as long as he stands
in the way of a complete ANAL
gamation." Cutler wanted to
swallow the B'nai Birth, and
the order refused to be swallow
ed. Needless to say that later Col.
Cutler cooled down considerably
and a very happy solution of the
problem was reached. But the
Colonel did not like opposition a
bit-and he never turned the left
cheek when the right was smit-
ten. He was an indomitable
fighter-but he was a winner.
The writer once asked him
whether he was a Zionist. His
reply was characteristic. mo
man." said he, "who has lived in
Russia, and who goes through
what a Russian Jew has to 90
through, can help being a Zion
list. And a Zionist he was. He
gave the movement his time, his
toll and his money-and he died
as one of its recognized heads.
The same kind of application
characterized his work on the
Jewish Congress Committee.
Cutler was a Jew-he lived for
the Jews, and no history of Am
erican Israel will be complete
without taking his activities in
to account. He has his faults. He
was extremely ambitious; to a
degree he was domineering, and
ne hated opposition; he was
jealous of his power-but he
never abused it. He was shrewd
and resourceful in the best sense
OF the terms and there are few
objects he sought to achieve
that he failed in. But he was a
Jew worthy of the name, and his
ueatn Is mourned by Israel all
over.
The highest honor he prob
ably achieved outside of his Jew
ish activities, was a Distinguish
ed Medal he received from Con-
gress for his great work on the
Jewish Welfare Board.
Mrs. Cutler died several
months ago of a prolonged i'll,
ness and it is said that Colonel
Cutler grieved so deeply that it
greatly weakened his already un-
dermined condition.
