THE JUNIOR CONGREGATION,
OBSERVANCE OF THE SABBATH,
AND DUTY TO THE YOUTH
WERE SUBJECTS DISCUSSED.

conducted by the members of the
Junior Congregation last Friday eve
ming \ very large congregation was
present to hear the message the youth
full speake-., would deliver The very
large nur.ber of young people in it
self wa an inspiration TO the adults
and M incentive to the young.
The service was read by Edward
Mixer in pleasing, earnest manner.
Amy Esther Barnett delivered the first
ermonette on 1.-THE Junior Congrega-
ton" She spoke of the heritage OF Il
beautiful faith handed down. and add
ed: Let us consider how fortunate
we have been to have been born Jews.
1t is not your neighbor's fault If he
has been born Christian. No more
is it ours that we have been born
Jews. But since we have had this
privilege of being born with the high
est ideals that humanity prizes, and
which are the guides of the finest
spirits of the human race, bestowed on
us by God, must we not live UP TO
them as far as we are able?
Continuing, she asked:
Are we ever ashamed of our re-
ligion? If so nothing could be more
foolish. for any religion if sincere is
something to be proud of; so ours
especially should seem doubly so to
us. since it has been glorified by the
sacrifices of our fathers. A person
who is loyal to his noble principles is
worthy of respects respected. But
we cannot expect people to have re
spect for our religion and ourselves,
unless we ourselves have it first.
For this purpose she recommended
that the young people he earnest in
their attendance and their interest in
the Junior congregation. 1T will help
us to be religious men and women
who know that our religion must be
practiced in our smallest every day
acts, as well as in those concerning
our Temple duties.
And so we must not let Judaism
lapse, but even as our ancestors. must

and to sec that it again becomes Il
living part of our religion?
Eugene II. Freedheim. whose subjccr
was The Link Between Youth and
Manhood" said in part:
Youth is not time of madulter-
ated happiness. Its temptations AMI
trials often seemed to ovcisbadow the
happier side of life. However. with
the coming of the more serious re-
sponsibilities, time brightens the mem
cry of the pleasures of Youth. and
dulls the acute remembrance of its
pain.
Tonight we ask you to recall the
trials of Youth. because only in that
way can the older folks, thru their
sympathetic understanding, aid the
younger ones in solving their problems
of life.
From the stand point of religion
youth is especially significant. 1t is
the time of religious awakening. of
spiritual conflict, of glasping for
Truth The answer Youth finds to
this inward struggle usually fixes his
religious life. He then iapses into
permanent lethargy. or his religion
takes on a new, vital. and lasting
meaning.

Court Upholds Contempt
Decision Against Craig
Appellate Division Afirms Rul-
ing in Protested Sale
of Bonds

The Appellate Division of the Su-
preme Court yesterday affirmed Jus
tlce Manning's order a6Judging Comp
troller Charles L. Craig guilty of a
civil contempt of court. comptroller
Craig had been. fined $3.50 and SS24.3S
costs. 1t was charged that he violated
an injunction in having sold corporate
stock bonds Of the City of New y ork.
The decision was affirmed by Justices
Putnam, Blackmar and Kelly. Justice
Mills dissented. The prevailing opin-
ion was written by Justice Putnam,
who decided that the Comptroller might
have warned his subordnat Of the is
suance of the injunction. The Comp
troller contended that the selling of
the bonds had reached such step that
he could not stop the sale Justice
Mills, in the dissenting opinion, said
that inasmuch as the plaintiff had suf-
fered no real damage through the al
legged contempt Of court, no fine should
have been imposed. The contempt arose
out of the action brought by William
j. Schietfelin. head of a drug syndi-
cate, who, as taxpayer, sought to
restrain Comptroller Craig from
selling S4,50O,00O worth of Corporate
bonds of the City of New York.
